Scott Lawrence Fairfax, Vermont Obituary

Scott Lawrence

Scott Alan Lawrence, 45, of Jericho passed away on Wednesday October 19, 2016 at the University of Vermont Medical Center in Burlington. He was born in Rockingham, Vermont on July 7, 1971, son of Bernard Lawrence Jr. and the late Nancy (Merrill) Lawrence. He was born and raised in Westminster and was a graduate of the Bellows Falls Union High School. Scott went on to UVM earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Small Business and Marlboro College earning a Master's Degree in Business Administration. He married Daniella Noyes in 1998 in Burlington. Scott was employed as a project manager with IBM for 20 years. Because he believed in the importance of education, he was a professor and chair of the BSMIS and MSIT programs at Marlboro College in his “spare time” for almost 10 years. Scott’s life was very full with the love of family and friends. He had a curious mind, a quick smile, a wicked sense of humor and an unbridled love of life. He enjoyed nothing better than a late-night philosophical discussion. His passion for life was only exceeded by the love he had for the many people whose lives he touched. He volunteered countless hours to many charities and causes. He was captain of a local tennis team. He enjoyed traveling and was a Disney fanatic. He was an avid gaming enthusiast, poker player, brewed his own beer, and loved movies, music and Monty Python. He was an ordained minister and took great pride in performing marriage services for a few of his friends. He was a faithful Jets fan and loved going to car races with his father and friends. He recharged his batteries every summer by kayaking, fishing, and taking long hammock naps at Lake Groton. He is survived by his loving wife of 18 years Daniella (Noyes) Lawrence of Jericho, his daughters Nicole Lawrence and Sydney Lawrence, both of Jericho; his father Bernard Lawrence Jr. and his wife Sheila Lawrence of Dummerston; his sister Deb Kesler and husband Chris Kesler of Jericho; his mother-in-law Karen Noyes of South Burlington; father-in-law Thomas Noyes and wife Linda Noyes of Georgia; brother-in-law Aaron Noyes and wife Kendra Noyes of Georgia; a niece Kira Noyes, 4 nephews Ethan Kesler, Jared Kesler, Ian Noyes, Trevor Noyes, many aunts, uncles, cousins and 2 faithful companions “Bandit” and “Nina.” Scott’s family invites friends and community to gather with them on Saturday, October 22, 2016 from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. at Earthlogic, 56 Main Street, Essex Jct., VT. Additional parking is available across the street behind the A.W. Rich Funeral Home. No other public services are planned at this time. The family invites you to view further information and share your memories by visiting www.awrfh.com. In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to the Chittenden County Relay For Life in the name of Scott Lawrence and team Rising Spirits.
