Clyde Scott

October 25, 1934 - January 17, 2021

Clyde A. Scott , 86, a long-time resident of Stamford, made his transition peacefully on January 17, 2021, surrounded by his loving family. Born in Mobile, AL on October 25, 1934, he was the youngest son of Inez Tate Scott and Spurgeon Scott. Clyde’s illustrious 37-year career with the United States Postal Service was highlighted with numerous awards of merit for his public service. Additionally, he lived the dream of operating his own painting business for over 48 years. Clyde was drafted into the U. S. Army at the tender age of 18 and would often cite his military experience as what fostered his great discipline. Anyone who knew Clyde, understood that he loved automobiles. He enjoyed reading about them, talking about them, cleaning them and of course – driving them. He could be seen on many sunny afternoons buffing his latest vehicle to get that perfect shine. He was predeceased by wife of 60 years Louise B. Scott, his parents, and brother. He leaves to cherish his fond memories: two sons, Craig (Pamela) of Stamford, CT and Robert (Kylie) of Phoenix, AZ one daughter Rachael of Marietta, GA; 4 grandchildren, Carl (Taylor), Raeann, Reid, and Charlotte, one brother Leo, loving relatives and friends. Clyde Scott would not want us to mourn his passing as much as to celebrate his life and his home going, to ever be with the Lord. The virtual memorial service will be held on Saturday, January 23, 2021 at 12:00 p.m. with Minister Erica Grant officiating. There will be no visitation. Flower donations can be forwarded to Graves Medley Funeral Services, 31 Stillwater Ave. Stamford, CT 06902. Interment will be private.
