Scott "Scoota" D. Lockhart, age 40 of East Bridgewater passed away at his home on December 8th. Scoota was the cherished only son of his beloved mother Robin (Somers) Lockhart and the late Scott L. Lockhart. He is survived by his former wife and best friend Somar Bruner and their son Landon and former girlfriend Erin Mitchell and their two sons, Michael and Jackson.

Scoota was a proud United States Army Ranger. He was a decorated veteran of the War in Afghanistan where he served his country valiantly. Scoota was larger than life, with an infectious smile, an unmatched zest for life and a heart bigger than the sun. As his colleagues at Mistletoe Acres Tree Farm recently remarked, "The heavens have gained another shining star. And your star, Scoota, will certainly be among the brightest."

Scoota was the grandson of Richard "Bud" Somers and the late Dorothy "Dot" Somers of Carver and the late Walter and Carole Lockhart of East Bridgewater. He is survived by many loving aunts and uncles, Cheryl Ortenzi and husband Doug of East Bridgewater, Kim Sweeney and husband Donnie of Plymouth and Lisa Lockhart and longtime companion Todd of Rhode Island,  Richard Somers and wife Brenda of Rockland, Hope Somerslee and wife Sandy of Holbrook, Pam Szeto and husband Wong or Carver, Holly Burke and husband Mike of Holbrook, Janette Somers and fiancé Sean of Wareham, Debbie McCullough and her husband Joe of Florida and Karen Grenier and husband Victor of New Hampshire. Scoota leaves behind many cousins who will never forget him and the love, fun and crazy times they shared!

Visitation will be held at the Quealy & Son Funeral Home, 116 Adams Street, Abington on Thursday December 15 from 4 to 7pm.
