Family and Relationships
Family
My father, Robert Scott was born in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada on November 20, 1922. Dad was a good guy who was a good friend to everyone he knew. His greatest pleasure in life was his family.
My Mother was born in England in 1925. She was a great Mother and just a lot of fun to be around. She was not one to mess with because she would let you know where she stood on the issues. To say she was opinionated would probably be an understatement. She was a lot of fun to be around and Mary and I spent a lot of time traveling with her. We always had a great time.
I had three sisters growing up. My sister Molly was two years younger than me and we never really got along until we were adults. Molly is the kind of person who makes friends easily and has lots of them. My two younger sisters Margaret and Lynn were about 8 and 10 years younger than me so I never really had much in common with them when they were young. As we got older we became good friends and are still friends to this day.
I got married the first time in 1969 and had three daughters, Lise, Lynn and Margaret. We were divorced in 1983 and it made having a normal relationship with my daughters difficult. We have kind of an on and off relationship, but we do keep in touch.
I married Mary in 1985. We have been married for over 40 years and it has been the single greatest thing that ever happened to me. Mary is kind, loving, unassuming, and someone who cares about everyone. She had a daughter, Nicole, from a previous marriage and we had a son Chirs in 1989. We have a great relationship with both our children and with our new two grandchildren from Nicole's marriage.
