Mark Scott

Mark Scott, age 68, went home to be with the Lord, leaving behind a legacy rooted in faith, love, and faithful service. Mark loved Jesus deeply and lived his life trusting in God’s promises. After retiring as a computer architect from Microsoft, he served devotedly as the Assistant Pastor at Calvary Chapel Lake Buena Vista, discipling others with love, wisdom, and a servant’s heart.

Mark was preceded in death by his daughter, Rebekah Schlegel, and his father, Paul Schmertman.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Sherry; his daughter, Hannah Casillas and her husband Angel Casillas; his mother, Florence Schmertman; his seven cherished grandchildren; and his four sisters, all of whom were richly blessed by his love and guidance.

Mark was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, son, and brother. He found joy in good food and coffee, meaningful fellowship with friends and family, and traveling, always grateful for the beauty of God’s creation and the memories he made along the way. His faith shaped the way he loved others—with kindness, strength, and grace.

While he will be deeply missed, his family rejoices in the promise of eternal life and takes comfort in knowing that Mark is now in the presence of his Savior. As Scripture says,

“Well done, good and faithful servant.” (Matthew 25:21)

His life was a testimony to God’s faithfulness, and his legacy will continue through the lives he touched and the faith he shared.
