Scott Lawrence Weinzetl

Scott Lawrence Weinzetl (58) passed away peacefully on January 18th, during Divine Mercy Hour, while holding the hand of his beloved mother, Shirley. Scott was born in July, 1962, in Minnesota, and was the second of five children to Larry and Shirley Weinzetl. In his youth, “Scotty” was a doting brother, a dutiful son, and dedicated his life to his faith, his family, and his passions for music and sports. Scott went on to study Accounting at Minnesota State University, Mankato, where he met his wife, Kristi, in 1983. Scott was hopelessly devoted to Kristi, and his life-long love for her was unmatched. He nicknamed her “Cute,” which he would lovingly call her throughout their 38 years together. Scott’s career in finance moved their family all over the country where God led them to countless incredible, life-long friendships along the way. A dedicated husband and father, Scott worked long hours, yet always made it home for dinner with his family. He coached multiple softball, baseball and basketball teams for his children, and while Scott didn’t officially coach his son's football teams, he was always available on the sidelines to offer ‘advice.’ We know he will be coaching from heaven’s sideline to ensure his Vikings get the Superbowl win he always dreamed of. Scott shared his mother’s love for music, and used his talents to pass down the same passion to his children. Scott performed in piano recitals, and sang in concert choirs in high school and college, as well as the Ellis Street Singers (Mankato). Scott also sang as a member of the Dallas Symphony Chorus. A devout Catholic, Scott was honored to serve several Catholic Churches as the Choir Director, where his family attended as parishioners. He worked tirelessly to ensure the music enhanced, but never distracted from, the liturgy. Scott is survived by his loving wife of 35 years, Kristi, his four children Sarah (and spouse Taras) Wybaczynsky, Emily Hunter, Matthew (Dannah) Weinzetl, and Adam (Alexandra) Weinzetl, as well as grandchildren Brody, Taras, and Joanna who brought amazing joy to his life. Scott is also survived by his parents, Larry and Shirley Weinzetl, siblings Cynthia (Richard) Hermes, Mitch (Rhonda) Weinzetl, Tony (Jodi) Weinzetl, and Laura (Vince Martin) Stichter, and in-laws E. Stanton (Jolinda) Hughes as well as numerous nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles, cousins and in-laws, all of whom he loved dearly. Visitation will be held at Washburn-McReavy Eden Prairie on Friday, February 5th, from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM. To ensure social distancing please register online below. Friends and family are invited to Scott's Mass of Christian Burial Saturday, February 6th, at 2:00 PM, with a Rosary beginning at 1:30 PM. The Rosary and Mass will also be live-streamed via St Hubert's website: http://www.sthubert.org beginning at 1:30 PM. Interment at St. Hubert Cemetery will be held later in the week. Scott’s family wishes to thank their many friends and family all over the country who provided unceasing prayers and gifts over the last two years, especially the financial support that allowed Scott to live out his life-long dream of going on Safari in South Africa. The family would also like to acknowledge the nurses and staff of MN Oncology Chaska for their exceptional care of Scott during his two-year cancer journey, as well as Brighton Hospice for ensuring his comfort as he made his way home to his heavenly Father. Memorials can please be made to: http://www.priceless4purpose.org "Mother of our hope, Mother of Jesus our Lord, pray for us always." "Be kind to one another." #TeamScott forever
