Scott Bruce Meyer's Obituary
Scott B. Meyer, 65 years old , of Columbia, IL, passed away on February 23, 2021. He was born August 3, 1955, in Mason City, IL. He was the son of the late Russell, and Linda, nee Zoril, Meyer.
Scott was a well known and respected attorney in the metro east area for over 35 years. He was truly an accomplished man. He took pride in all aspects of his life. Whether it was in his legal career, as a father, family member or friend, he was always helpful and respectful. Scott loved the outdoors from little on and it never stopped. He was always outside doing something. He loved sports and took the greatest joy helping his boys through their athletic youths. He was a rock to so many and to say his loss will be felt, is an understatement. He truly was the most authentic human being and was a rarity to anyone who knew him. A kind soul to many. God gained an exquisite soul the day he went home.
