Ronald L. Scott ’49

Ronald L. Scott ’49, December 22, 2000, in California. After graduation, Ronald earned an MD from Washington University, St. Louis, in 1952 and completed a residency at the Sonoma County Hospital in Santa Rosa, California. He married Elizabeth Bruce ’50 in the chapel in Eliot Hall in 1947. They moved to Sonoma in 1956, where Ronald had a medical partnership for four years. From 1960 until his retirement, he was associated with Kaiser Permanente in Napa, Vallejo, and Fairfield. Most of his career was spent working as a family practitioner and anesthesiologist, and he was one of the first physicians to write and pass the family practice boards. His outside interests included fly fishing, woodworking, and leatherwork. He is survived by his wife, two daughters, a son, and four grandchildren.
