FAIRHOPE, AL Retired Master Chief, William B. Scott, Jr. age 79, passed away peacefully on March 16, 2016 at his home with his wife and daughter near him. Bill was a faithful, loving, and doting father, as well as an affectionate and loyal husband.

He and his family returned to Fairhope where he established his own company, Bayside Electric Service, and became an endearing member of the hometown he loved. After the passing of his first wife, favor was his when he found an equal and devoted love in Mary Ann. He accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior on January 17th, 2010. He is preceded in death by wife, Barbara Ann (Beaty) Scott; his parents, William B. Scott, Sr. and Coriel Scott (McLaughlin).
