Our deepest condolences to the McNair family for your loss. Scott will be missed greatly within the dog community! He was, with Nora, a fixture at the Brantford KC shows for many, many years and it will be very strange not to see him there again. Scott was a man who could make every single person he met feel like they were special to him. His smile brightened the day and his friendship was valued. We will miss him.

My mind is filled with many memories of the wonderful personality and smile that was Scotts. I am not going to be sad today. Instead I will remember those many wonderful memories and happy times, keeping in mind that Scott is now reunited with another most wonderful person that I so greatly admired. Nora was a gem as well. May God Bless them both.

To Scott’s family I pass my deepest condolences on the loss of Scott the world is a poorer place with his passing.
Shirley Bell
I, and the whole dog show community, have lost one of the most knowledgeable and honest men. One could always expect a completely unbiased opinion from Scott. He will be remembered by all who knew him in the sport of dogs as a true dog man. Those involved in our sport know exactly how prestigious this description is. His quick wit and cheerful attitude will be missed. He was, to me, a very very special person. I will miss him. My condolences to his family and other friends.
Elaine McNair
Thinking of all of you at this time. His smile, sharp wit and the twinkle in his eye will be missed by all.
Our Condolences,

Going to miss his stories and sense of humour. Neither of us knew why he gave me the nickname he did but it sure did bring a smile to my face each time he called me by it. You will be missed Uncle Scott.

Barry McNaughton
I am sorry to hear of Uncle Scott’s passing, but choose to remember a man who shared so much, Christmas Eve as Santa, and “Olive” the other reindeer, Horse races and placing the bets, Family Holiday gatherings in the basement in Ilderton, snowmobiling and cookin hot dogs in the back bush on the farm, heck I can go on and on, but just want to say a Toast to you Uncle Scott, you don’t very often get that relative that you are related too on both sides of the family! Rest in Peace Uncle Scott you are forever in my heart!

Scott was the most kind hearted person you could ever hope to know. He was so generous in sharing his knowledge and was always there with a kind word when you needed it. Scott was always smiling and it was truly contagious, everyone who was near Scott couldn’t help but to join in his happy, smiles. He has been a mentor to almost all who have followed him in the dog world and we can all rejoice in the fact that Scott will live on forever in all who he shared his vast knowledge and experience with. Scott will be missed.
Terry & Jo Ann Pavey
Scott will be greatly missed by all of his many friends in the world of purebred dogs. He was a gentle man, and a gentleman, always with kind words for everyone. Our sincere condolences to his family and to all who loved him.
Bob and Nancy Manning
Bonnie, Scott and families: Our thoughts are with you all at this time. A great man has left us to be reunited with those who have gone before him. He was stubborn and fought to the end and taught us all about being strong willed and determined. It was great to have him join us for the Ilderton Fair parade and hear him call out to his fellow Shriners during the parade. We will miss him on Friday nights for dinner, but will know his spirit is always there with a story to tell us. He was proud of his family, especially his grandchildren and we know they will cherish all the family memories that have been created. We will miss him!

Bonnie & Jim, Scotty & Cindy and family,
We are sorry to hear of Uncle Scott’s passing. We have enjoyed spending time with him at the McNair picnic and during social gathering’s with Mom and Dad’s bunch. He had the same sparkle in his eye that Grandma Hodgins did – which was always a delight and great memory for our Taylor. We will miss hearing of his outings with Aunt Donna, his laugh, big smile and his McNair flare. Keeping you all in our thoughts and Prayers.
Jim Sharman
I am so sorry to read about Scott. I have been out of the Ilderton loop for many years but had many Co-op dealings with Scott. He will be sorely missed in the community. Jim Sharman

There is a vacant spot at the Ilderton night social gatherings. Heaven has gained a cheerful face, a hearty chuckle and a story or three. May those left to mourn his loss be comforted by family, friends and faith.

Dear Bonnie & Scott;
I was saddened to hear of your dad’s passing. I will always remember him fondly and try. You might not know I was given my middle name to honour your dad.
I pray God’s comfort for you and your families.
