SCOTT ROBERTON With profound sadness we announce the passing of our son, grandson, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, nephew, colleague and friend. He was taken to be with the Lord on August 25, 2017. Scott was 34 years of age. Scott was born in Winnipeg, grew up in Calgary then moved to Gimli where he completed his education. Scott began his insurance career in Winnipeg, as an insurance broker with Marsh and later with Western Financial. He was currently working as an underwriter with Milnco. Scott is remembered as a very passionate person. He loved sports, especially the Ohio Buckeyes, the Toronto Blue Jays and of course the Winnipeg Jets. Scott was a collector. He collected everything from broken pencil leads in elementary school to coins, sports cards, sports figures, anything from McDonalds, oil cans and on and on and on. He was a man filled with passion and excitement each time something new caught his eye, the custom made bike he built for himself, the air compressor, the Ford Truck, ice fishing, learning to skate so he could play hockey, fitness, cycling and learning to hunt and of course pets - Baby Cat, Tyson, Beans and Mr. Ohio. There will be a funeral on Friday, September 1 at 3:00 p.m., preceded by a viewing starting at 2:00 p.m. The funeral will be at Gilbart Funeral Chapel, 309 Eveline Street in Selkirk, Manitoba. In lieu of flowers, if you wish to make a donation in Scott's memory, please consider a donation to the William H. Mcgannon Foundation, a charitable organization providing scholarships and other support for risk management and insurance students in Canada. Rest in peace sweet boy. Condolences may be left at www.gilbartfuneralhome.com Gilbart Funeral Home, Selkirk in care of arrangements.

Was so shocked to hear of Scott's sudden passing. Condolences and prayers to the family. Scott always had a smile ready, and was kind hearted - whether it was offering to drive me home from work when I was ill, or giving me his extra Detroit Red Wings T-shirt because he knew that was my favourite team - that showed his thoughtfulness. You will be missed. - Posted by: Tammy Sedor (Former Co -Worker at Marsh) on: Aug 30, 2017
