Douglas Peter Scott, 74, died September 9, 2020 in his home after a 13 year battle with cancer.
He was born in 1946 in Omaha, Nebraska to Ernest James and Aurelia Scott, and was the second of two sons.
Doug served in the Air Force during the Vietnam war. He was a radio repairman based in Thailand. He never drew attention to his military service, feeling that attention should go to those who saw action.
After the war he owned a snow removal and underground sprinkler business for a short time. He worked many years for the City of Omaha, mostly in waste water management.
Doug’s hobbies were tinkering in his garage workshop and collecting and sometimes inventing ‘gadgets’. Doug never did anything halfway. He even rigged up an LED headlight on his walker.
After he and Pat retired, they sold their house and furniture to become full-time RVers for several years before settling in Buena Vista.
Shortly after coming to Buena Vista in 2008 Doug was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, an incurable cancer of the bone marrow. Doug believed the cancer was a blessing, because the impact brought him back to God after years of secular living.
Doug had a stem cell transplant and many different kinds of treatment, both pills and infusions. He rarely complained no matter what he was going through. He took advantage of his remissions and endured the hard times when the cancer mutated and the current treatment would fail. Then on to the next drug combination. He grew fond of his medical team, and they of him.
He had a quiet acceptance of his cancer. He would say “It is what it is”.
Doug was a man of few words but a keen observer; he loved to make people laugh.
Doug was preceded in death by his parents.
He is survived by his wife Pat, brother Jeff, stepson Kelly McGuire, daughter in law Jamee and grandchildren Ryan, Sean, Brendan, Sarah and Taylor.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Clearview Care Team or the HRRMC hospice.

Unfortunately there are a lot of AIDS/Herpes denials on Herbal cures still out there. I did research on them after I was tested HIV/Herpes positive. I was so worried that I was going to die soon. I continued my search again on herbal remedy for Std, then I found lots of testimony on how Dr Itua Herbal Medicine Cured HIV/Aids, Herpes Virus,Copd, Hepatitis, Diabetes, On websites sharing their testimonies, which made much more sense to me. All the authors pronounce Dr Itua As a man with Good Heart, I pick interest in their testimonies and I contact him about my situation then he gave me procedure how it works, I proceed after one week he courier his Herbal Medicine to me and instruct me on how to drink it for two weeks to cure. I receive His Herbal Medicine so I drank it for two weeks as I was told then after 2 days I go for a test I found out I was cured from HIV/Aids & Herpes Virus, I pay homage to him 2 months ago to his country to celebrate with him on his African festival which he told me it usually happens every year. I know there are lots of (HIV)/Aids Herpes Virus denials of Herbal Remedy movement, the same few doctors and they represent a very small fraction of the community. I could have died because I refused Natural Herbs Cures for so long, but luckily, by the grace of God I am alive to tell my story.
