Scott Michael Holman was born December 21, 1956 to John and Betty Holman in Traverse City, Michigan. Scott was raised in Virginia Beach where his father retired from the navy. 

Scott was a free spirit and loved to travel whether it was by car, tugboat or simply throwing his thumb in the air. After a brief stint in the Navy his travels led him to Walterboro, South Carolina. There he met his wife Kelly Leatherdale and began his family with a daughter Natasha. 

His career in restaurant management brought him to Norfolk Virginia where he was manager/ district manager of Wendy’s. While in Norfolk he expanded his family with sons John and Michael.

Once again his career took him to Illinois and after his mother’s death he relocated to Missouri and continued his career in restaurant management. He retired after a brain tumor in 2018 and continued to live in DeSoto, Missouri. 

Scott touched the lives of many and helped in one way or another, even more. He will be missed by so many. Travel on Scott we love you.
