Scott Taylor Paul Huddleson passed away on June 25, 2018, from complications of diabetes. He was 56.
The middle of the five children of John and Carol (Lasche) Huddleson, Scott was born in Princeton, NJ, on December 29, 1961.
He graduated from Hopewell Valley In 1980 and attended Mercer County College for Computer Science, where he graduated with honors.
He moved to Denver, CO, in 1996 to be close to his mother and brother.
Scott had lived in London, KY, since 2005 until the love of his life, Kathy Hunt Stacy, passed away in November 2017. Kathy had two children, Beth and Josh, from a previous marriage. Scott, who had no children, treated them like his own. In January, Scott moved to Lawrenceville, NJ, to be close to his family.
Scott was known for his intelligence, sharp wit, strength of character, and will. In spite of all of his health challenges, he never complained.
His sense of humor was unwavering.
People of Pennington may remember Scott walking his seeing eye dog around town while wearing a custom made T-shirt advertising “for a real blind date, call…” Other health challenges led him to adopt the moniker “Stumpy from Kentucky.”
He referred to many as “poor, helpless, sighted people.” He was a man of few words; a raised eyebrow would suffice.
He is survived by his brother, Jody (wife, Pauline; son, Alec; stepdaughter, Nicole); sister Mary Beth (son, Dan Harrah); and twin sisters Sarah (husband, Jeff Herbst ) and Amy (husband, Joseph Ficci; daughter, Nicole).
There will be a private memorial.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Scott’s name to The Federation for the Blind .
