On Tuesday, March 9, 2021, our good friend and colleague, Scott Burgess, passed away.

Scott played key roles in the success of Griffin Financial Group for the last 10 years, a time characterized by his tactful executive stewardship that was founded on nearly five decades of experience in the insurance industry. Esteemed among clients and colleagues, Scott was known within the industry for providing strategic advice and financial and transactional solutions. His career trajectory, from reinsurance executive to serving on seven boards of directors of various insurance companies, attests to his unique professionalism and exceptional business acumen.

Scott attended the U.S. Air Force Academy, and earned a B.S. in Marketing from the University of Maine. He was a licensed private pilot and an avid golfer.

A voice of composure and geniality, Scott was as unflappable as he was quick to smile. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
