Scott Anthony Lee passed away at his home with all of his family by his side, on June 28, 2020, at the age of 48. He fought a hard battle with cancer, not wanting to leave his family, but his heavenly father had other plans for him.

Scott was born on April 8, 1972, in Bogalusa. He was a mechanic at Lott and Sons Inc. for over 10 years and has been a lineman for AT&T for over 19 years. He was a great son, a loving husband, father, and grandfather and a good friend to many. His life revolved around his wife and children. They enjoyed deer hunting as a family and Scott was always his children’s biggest fan. He was a member of Lee’s Creek Baptist Church.

Lee, who resides in Pine; his father and mother, Paul A. Lee and Barbara L. Lee; and his paternal grandmother, Louise Blevins; his sister, Heather L. Branch (Steven); and their children, Jacob S. Branch (Kailey), Olivia M. Corkern (Andrew) and their children, Phenyx and Daxton, Taylor N. Branch, and Laci C. Branch of Bogalusa. He is also survived by his brother, Seth P. Lee (Callie) and their three children, Porter, Kennedy, and Prentiss who reside in Monticello; Miss. Scott’s mother-in-law, Juanita Stringer and sister-in-law, Paula Lozier and her children, Trace, Noah, and Collin of Angie.
