Obituary for Scott Hardwick Scott Hardwick, known to friends as “Hardy,” and “Papa” to his family, passed away peacefully at home on September 27 at the age of 56. Scott Stuart was born on September 17, 1962 to George and Myrtle Hardwick (nee Fox). A proud Wickliffe native, he graduated from Wickliffe High School in 1980, and Cleveland State University in 1985.
He worked at Rockwell Automation, formerly known as Reliance Electric, for 32 years and last held the title of Manager Strategic Sourcing & Supplier Diversity. As “The Ambassador of Strategic Sourcing and Inclusion,” Scott was vital to the success of Rockwell’s Supplier Diversity Program. Winning many awards, he traveled the world in that capacity – having visited China, Germany, and all across the US – making friends wherever he went.
Scott loved music – especially “hair bands” and attended many concerts with friends. He enjoyed golfing, fishing trips in Canada the “boys,” and bowling – having bowled a 300 game in 1999. An avid Ohio State fan, he enjoyed cheering for his beloved Buckeyes – even traveling to at least 20 games to the “school up North”.
He was a fan of all sports – Browns, Indians, Cavs, and especially enjoyed attending the sporting events of his grandchildren – he was the proudest Papa around. He also took pride in caring his many four-legged children. He is survived by his wife of 22 years, Cynthia (nee McKean), daughter Shannon Smith (Brandon) and five grandchildren – Halle, Brynne, Grayson, Rowan and Braden.
He also leaves loving brothers James (Debra) and Gregory (Karen), seven nieces and nephews, nine great nieces and nephews, and many cherished friends. He is preceded in death by his parents, George and Myrtle. Scott would have given you the shirt off of his back and now in death, he continues to give.
Having participated in many trials to help find a cure for Alzheimer’s, he gave the ultimate gift of his brain for Alzheimer’s research upon his passing. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in memory of Scott can be made to The Alzheimer’s Association of Cleveland, the American Diabetes Association, or to Hospice of the Western Reserve.
