Scott L. Bertram

Scott L. Bertram of Watertown formerly of Waukesha passed away on Thursday, November 21, 2024 at the age of 69. He was born in Waukesha on May 19, 1955 the son of Howard and Leah (nee Jones) Bertram. Scott was an extremely hard worker and worked for Waukesha Wholesale (later Dierks) for 40 years retiring as Warehouse Manager. In his active years he loved to golf with his friends and brother Jack and play darts. A car accident in 2013 took away Scott’s ability to walk and work but he never lost his quick wit, knowledge of useless celebrity facts, or his ability to laugh. He focused on enjoying old movies, listening to music, being with his dog Coco and learning to use his tablet. 

He will be sadly and forever missed by his loving wife Carolyn and devoted caregiver who he married on May 11, 2012; his beloved daughter Becky Bertram of Waukesha; stepdaughters, Jenniffer (Mike) Hintz of Appleton and Amy (Dan) Prebil of Waukesha; and former spouse Carol. He is further survived by his sisters and brothers-in-law, Paula (James) Dahlman, Geri Murtaugh, Christopher (Jenny Bostick) Thone and Nancy Thone, along with cousins and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, brothers James Bertram and Jon “Jack” “Pork” Bertram and brother-in-law Mark Thone. 

Heartfelt gratitude is extended to Scott’s many caregivers, especially his morning helper and shining star Peter Reich and to Katrina Lippert. 

Visitation will be held on Monday, December 16, 2024 from 12:00 p.m. until the 2:00 pm. memorial service at Randle-Dable-Brisk Funeral Home, 1110 S. Grand Avenue, Waukesha. Interment will be at Prairie Home Cemetery.
