William Scott DeHart, 76, of Boiling Springs, PA, passed away on April 1, 2025. He was born in Harrisburg, PA on October 13, 1948. His loving parents, Kenneth William DeHart and Joyce (Unger) DeHart raised Scott, his brother, Ken and his sister, Jan. Scott enjoyed hunting with his dad, uncles, brother, son, and grandsons.

Scott served his country in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. He was stationed at Fort Irwin near Barstow, California. Scott worked for Hershey Foods at H.B. Reese’s in Hershey.

In 1974, Scott married Lois (Romberger) DeHart, and they shared 51 years of love and devotion. Together, they raised two children: son Shawn DeHart (Victoria) and daughter Krista DeHart Bair (Michael). He was blessed with four grandchildren: Kora and Macie Bair and Kadyn and Asher DeHart. His brother Kenneth DeHart (Christine) and sister Jan Miller (Edward) along with loved nieces and nephews were very special to him. His beloved dog, Timmy and their past dogs were also an important part of Scott’s family.

Scott loved hiking trips in the West and Maine, antiquing with his wife, visiting historic homes, creating gardens on their property, and turning their house into an 18th century home. He especially enjoyed a yearly trip to Perry County to have breakfast at the Blain Hotel and a hike to check out their hunting spot with his kids and grandkids. Scott made every holiday special for his family filled with many traditions and leaves a legacy of love and devotion to his family!
