Scotty was a much loved son, brother, husband, father and a man who loved Jesus. His children, family, hunting, fishing and being outdoors brought him great joy. From an early age Scotty began hunting and traveled the world looking to add to his collection of mounted animals. He started Scotty Greene Adventures to share his joy of hunting with friends, old and new and traveled to remote locations such as Alaska, Canada, Spain, New Zealand and throughout the US. He will be remembered as a man who gave to others his huge smile, who loved hard and played hard, who was never ashamed to talk about God with other people. He had a love of music and a fabulous voice to share with the world. Scotty had an amazing love for life that he experienced with a number of very close friends and family. He was always happiest sharing his love of hunting with his son Bailey. He worked alongside his father and brother for many years as "Vice President of ABG Caulking," in the family business and was excellent at his trade. Scotty will be remembered by his family and friends for his huge heart, his excitement for the things in life where he found his greatest joy, and he happily shared that joy with others.
