Scott Zech

Diagnosed with Astrocytoma in 1994 -

27 years old

Became an Angel on March 19, 2010

Scott Zech was diagnosed with Astrocytoma in 1994 at 27 years of age. At the time, he was given 5 years to live. He surpassed all milestones his doctors set for him and passed away in 2011, after surviving for 16.5 years with this disease.


Scott was not only amazing, but the way he continued to triumph this disease was amazing. He wanted people to know that a brain cancer diagnosis did not have to be a death sentence, and proceeded to live his life to the fullest for those 16.5 years. Walking in the path of cancer, he and his wife Dalana met wonderful people and made friends they otherwise would not have made. Scott always said that Astrocytoma was his cross to bear.  Dalana says that she was the lucky one to help him carry it.


Scott was 43 years old when he passed away.  When his granddaughter Skylar asked where Pappy was, Dalana told her he was dancing with the angels.  Skylar donated her hair a few months later to Locks of Love.


Scott meant so much to so many, not because he had brain cancer, but because how he chose to live his life after being diagnosed with brain cancer.
