Obituary of Scott James Snethun

Scott James Snethun passed away on November 21, 2025.

Scott was born in Camrose on April 15, 1985, the first of four children to Jim and Teresa.  Scott grew up on the family farm and spent his childhood proudly working alongside his Dad, Papa, Uncles and a special hired man where he learned everything from growing crops to maintaining the machinery that kept the farm moving.

After graduating high school, Scott began his career in the oilfield, where he found both purpose and pride.  He excelled in his work and formed lasting friendships with those he met along the way – connections he deeply valued.

In 2011, Scott welcomed his son, Jack, into the world.  Becoming a father was his greatest joy.

In recent years, Scott made his home in Edmonton, where he lived until his passing.

He was predeceased by his father Jim, Papa John, Grandma Doreen, Papa Ernie, and Aunties; Gayle and Pat.

Scott will be remembered for his hardworking spirit, his straightforward kindness, and being the gentle giant that was open and accepting of all.  He leaves behind many who will miss him dearly.
