| Published December 23rd, 2020 | David "Scott" Treter | | | ![](../issue1422/images/1422-02601.jpg) | December 1, 1970 - November 9, 2020 | David "Scott" Treter of Lafayette, Calif., passed away peacefully in his sleep on Nov. 9 at the age of 49 after a nine-month battle with Sarcoma, a rare form of cancer.
Scott was born Dec. 1, 1970 in Berkley, Calif., and raised in Orinda, Calif., where he attended Del Rey Elementary School, Orinda Middle School (OIS) and graduated from Miramonte High School in 1989. He went on to the University of Southern California (Fight On!) where he studied economics in the entrepreneurship program and graduated in 1994. Scott then worked as Financial Advisor for Morgan Stanley for 25 years.
A devoted husband, father, son, brother and friend, Scott is survived by his wife of 19 years Sharon DeLauer Treter, his son Nathan Cole Treter (17), daughter Addison Nicole Treter (14), his parents Diana Ferry Treter and Douglas Earl Treter of Orinda, Calif., his brother Jonathan Paul Treter of Denver, Colo., as well as many loving aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.
Sharon was the love of his life and they shared a 35-year friendship that eventually "caught fire" after college. He was a staunch advocate and champion of his beloved children and will always be remembered as an incredibly adventurous and loving father.
Scott loved the great outdoors and especially the beauty of Tahoe. True to his warrior's heart, his greatest passion was downhill mountain biking with friends, bombing hills with the few who could keep up and snowboarding with his family. His sharp sense of humor and playful nature was infectious, but his genuine, unconditional love and support for others set him apart from the rest.
Scott will always be deeply loved by his family and an incredible tribe of lifelong friends and clients.
Due to the Coronavirus no immediate memorial service is planned, but a Celebration of Life will be held later next year. | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
