Scott Clark Robison

Scott Clark Robison, age 78, passed away on October 20, 2025 at his home in Logan, Utah.

Scott was born in Ely, Nevada, to George and Elaine Robison. The family moved to West Hartford, Connecticut in 1951, where Scott began school and held his first job as a paperboy for the Hartford Courant. The family later settled in Wilbraham, Massachusetts, where Scott attended Minnechaug High School. There, he excelled in long-distance running and graduated in 1965.

From 1966 to 1968, Scott served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Western States Spanish American Mission, serving in Texas, Colorado, and New Mexico. Upon returning, he attended Brigham Young University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering in 1972. While at BYU, he met Jeanette Baker. The two were married in the Los Angeles Temple a year later, and together they raised six children.

Scott began his professional career as a sales engineer for General Electric, where he worked from 1972 to 1981. His work took him across the United States as well as to Chile, Mexico, and the Caribbean. In 1982, the family moved back to Massachusetts, where Scott worked as a sales engineer and later as CEO of Robison Machinery, serving the manufacturing industry throughout New England.

In 1992, Scott began working for Massachusetts Municipal Electric, supporting power distribution to small towns across the state. The family later moved to Springfield, Illinois, where Scott worked for the Illinois Municipal Electric Agency from 1998 to 2010. There, he played a key role in planning for future power needs for small communities and in overseeing the development of two coal-fired power plants in Kentucky and southern Illinois.

A devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Scott served faithfully in many callings, including scoutmaster, counselor in several bishoprics, high councilor, bishop of the Springfield 2nd Ward in Illinois, and temple worker in the St. Louis Missouri Temple. He and Jeanette served two missions together: the first in Johannesburg, South Africa (2011–2013), and the second in Los Angeles, California (2022–2024). Prior to becoming weakened by cancer, Scott was serving at the Logan, Utah Employment Center.

Scott loved hiking, canoeing, camping, long road trips, cars, power tools, and exploring big hardware stores. He used these interests not only for enjoyment, but also as ways to connect with his children and to bless others.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Jeanette, and their six children: Traci Klein (Karno Arnorsson), Paul Robison, Melinda (Michael) Lines, Tina (Kurt) Engelbrecht, David (Rebecca) Robison, and Daniel Robison. He leaves behind 17 grandchildren and one great-granddaughter. He is also survived by his five siblings: Rebecca Sorensen, Marie Bassett, Elwin Robison, Beth Dunstan, and Krista Feinberg.

Funeral services will be held on Monday, October 27th at 11 AM at the North Logan 5th Ward Building (1850 N 400 E, North Logan, UT 84341) with a viewing prior from 10-10:30 AM. Interment at Hyde Park Cemetery.
