It’s safe to say Glen ‘Moose’ Scott left a larger-than-life impression on everyone he met.

The long-time Prince George resident, who passed away from cancer on Friday at the age of 75, wore many hats in the northern capital.
From sales and lacrosse to stockcar racing and sports radio, he even tried his hand at municipal politics.
A true renaissance man, Scott was a two-time city councilor, a sports director, a liquor delivery driver, and a stock car race announcer, among several other professions, hobbies, and volunteer work.
Originally from Vancouver, ‘Moose’ moved north at the age of 23 to work at Woodward’s in Prince George, and after that, a liquor delivery driver.
He was a big man and he cast a large shadow but all that paled in comparison to the size of his heart. Generous, friendly and caring in everything he did, whether it was family, his workmates or his business contacts, the Moose had a personality as big as his nickname and for that he will forever be remembered. That heart of his took one last beat on Friday when he died of cancer at age 75. For 52 of his years, Prince George was his home and in that time, whether it was sports, entertainment or politics, Moose found a way to get himself involved and become part of the talk of the town.
