He is survived by Alma, his wife of 49 years; his daughter, Laura Kay Stiner and husband Steve; his son, Ryan Scott Whitaker and wife Kym; three grandchildren, Gage Whitaker, Garrett Whitaker, Delilah Stiner; his sister, Elizabeth Worrell and husband Henry.  He is preceded in death by his sister Ann Zepke and his parents.

    Scott was a true gentleman, he helped me and many of my friends and colleagues understand the intricacies of sheet piling, and its uses. Scott was a great mentor. He was patient and kind. We will all miss him very much.
