Scott Matthew Arlint

Scott Matthew Arlint, age 27, of Walker/Houston, MO, passed away on Tuesday, October 25, 2016. He was born July 27, 1989, in El Dorado Springs, MO, the son of Alen Arlint and Rose (Milligan) Arlint. 

Scott attended Northeast Vernon County School and graduated with honors. He married Kendra Mitchell in 2008. To this union one child was born, Jocelynn Renee Arlint.

Scott studied and volunteered as a fire fighter with the Walker Fire Department and several other fire departments. He started fighting fires at age seventeen and fighting fires was still his first love. He excelled in this field.

Scott passed away working at what was his second love. He drove a semi truck for a living. He couldn’t wait to climb into the cab of his truck and become the King of the road. He had a joy for life that was unequalled. He enjoyed spending time with family and friends.

Preceding Scott in death were his great-grandparents Robert and Agness Arlint and Vern and Lola Myers.

Survivors include his three children: Jocelynn Renee Arlint of Oklahoma, Preston Levi Collins of Nevada, MO, and Zane Arron Cole of Walker, MO; his fiancé Melissa Koehn and her three children, Hope, Sabrina and Gabe, all of Houston, MO; Scott’s parents, Rose Arlint of West Plains, MO and Alen and Darla Arlint of Walker, MO; one brother Jason Arlint and wife Amber of Nevada, MO; four stepsisters: Dannielle McWilliams of Nevada, MO, Suzanne Prough and husband Greg of Nevada, MO, Jessica Dodd and husband Steven of Jerico Springs, MO, and Ashley Hardy and fiancé Harry of Nevada, MO; grandparents, Glenn and Mary Arlint of Helena, MT, Jack Barnes of Walker, MO, and Pat and Sinon Ozkal of Nevada, MO; several aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews; and numerous other family members and friends.

Arrangements were under direction of the Bland-Hackleman Funeral Home, El Dorado Springs, and a service is to be scheduled later.
