Scott was born on December 12, 1962 in Kermit, TX to Donald Wayne Beeler and Polly Ann Helms Beeler. He was a graduate of Deer Park High School. He excelled in football and was scouted by many Division 1 teams. He loved and chose to play on scholarship for the University of Texas Football. Due to injury his football career was cut short after his freshman year. He then began to build a life and family. Scott is the proud dad to 3 kids, and worked in the oil industry for 15 years. He was a Baptist and will be dearly missed by his family and friends. His love for the longhorns never diminished, so in his memory, HOOK EM HORNS!
