Scott Allen Oscarson Schweitz

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Scott Allen Oscarson Schweitz, 53, a devoted

servant of Christ. Scott entered into the presence of the Lord on January 9, 2024, in his

hometown of Missoula, Montana. Born to Don Oscarson and Kathy Schweitz on September 19,

1970, in Billings, Montana, Scott was raised by Alan and Kathy Schweitz in Missoula. Scott was

a cherished member of the Missoula community for 53 years.

Scott attended Target Range Grade School where he discovered his insatiable passion for soccer.

He played for the Missoula Strikers Association and, as an adult, was recruited to play soccer

professionally overseas. He graduated from Big Sky High School in 1988.

Scott’s life was one of active engagement with the world around him. He was an outdoor

enthusiast, often found fishing, camping, and panning for gold. Indoors, he was an avid video

game player often playing remotely with his nephew in Colorado. He also was a self-declared

champion of foosball and loved playing poker and Magic with his friends. Professionally, Scott

was an experienced massage therapist who was sought out for his strength and nurturing nature.

In times of joy or sorrow, Scott was a pillar of strength and a source of comfort. A devout

Christian, Scott’s wisdom and guidance of scripture were sought by many, and he graciously

shared his knowledge of the Lord, leaving an enduring impact on the many lives he touched.

Family and friends will forever treasure the countless memories of Scott’s laughter and love

which were a pillar of strength, offering support and understanding to those in need. He will be

deeply missed by all whose lives were enriched by his presence.

Scott is survived by his wife, Heather Schweitz, his beloved furry son Griffin Scott Schweitz and

Eden Leigh Schweitz, a feline. He is also survived by his father and mother Alan and Kathy Schweitz,

stepmother Becky Burton, sisters Misty Burks (Frank), Val Uranga (Mike), Jenn Kapp (Mike),

nephew Dylan, brother Jay Schweitz (Julie), and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.
