Our entire community of LHS Wildcats are absolutely grieving the loss of our good friend and colleague. Scott was a True Wildcat–he was kind, friendly, dedicated, and always focused on helping our students and staff. Scott was an outstanding counselor and he was always willing to work athletic competitions to watch our students compete & to help our Athletic Department create high-quality events for our community. Skylar & Sydney–your Dad was so proud of you. For every conversation I had with your Dad about issues at work, we had twice as many about the two of you. All of us will miss Scott and the joy, spirit, and excellence he brought to LHS.

My heart goes out to you Stacey, Sydney and Skylar. The loss of your husband and Dad is inconceivable.

I enjoyed his passion and his dedication to the sport he loved so much. I’m send you all the support I can from afar to help you through this terrible time. Scott has made an amazing impact on our school and on our students he worked with. Peace be with you and Gods speed Scott. You will truly be missed.
Ole Stevens
I have worked closely with Scott for the passed 17 years at LHS. Scott was an excellent counselor, a supportive colleague and just an amazing good person. He had a big heart and he worked hard for his students. He knew when to advocate with vigor, how to support those experiencing challenges and how to have hard conversations with a healthy dose of Chicago blue collar compassion. Whether you were a student or a colleague you knew Scott could be counted on to see the big picture, to be fair, to be just and to find the best possible outcome. This is a devastating loss. I will truly miss my friend and colleague.
Briant Kelly

I wish there was something eloquent and beautiful that I could say that could help during this time, unfortunately…. I’ve got nothing. What I do know is Scott loved my sister and those girls with everything he had and took such pride in his Family. He was extremely dedicated to his work & his coaching…. he loved life & his life loved him. Quite honestly, that is really all one can ask for. He’s a man that will be missed by many…Family, Friends, Students & Players. Scott Bogumil was….IS a Great Dude!! You’re gonna be missed, Buddy!! Love you Scooter.
Marissa Greenwell
Mr. Bogumil was an amazing guidance counselor to me and many others. When I first came to LHS my sophomore year, he really made me feel at home and helped me fit in not only academically but socially as well. When it came to my struggles with mental health and schoolwork, he would always help me and my family come up with the best possible plan for my success. I owe a lot of my school success to him with his awesome guidance and advice. He was always so helpful and so kind with every single encounter I had with him. I will truly miss seeing him in the LST and around the halls of LHS. I extend my deepest condolences and prayers to his family.
Fred Allman

I was very sorry to hear about Scott. He was a good Coach, Counselor, A.D. and friend. I spent a lot of time driving Scott’s teams and coming to the games at GT. He was thoughtful and took care of those around him. He was a mentor to a number of assistant coaches and did not take short cuts when preparing them. I will miss him. God Bless!

Scott was such an important part of our LST team at Libertyville High School. I will miss hearing about his VIP status at Dunkin Donuts, talking about the Cubs, and sharing stories as fellow doodle owners. I send my deepest condolences to his family who he spoke of so dearly.
John Mortillaro
I had the pleasure of coaching against Scott, then fortunate enough to coach with him at LHS, and for the past 8 years, the greatest honor to work with him as a counselor at LHS. As amazing as his basketball mind was, nothing can compare to who he was as a person and the examples he set about how to be the best counselor for his students. I will miss our “mini timeouts” during the day to discuss whatever, and will always remember his caring nature and calming presence. Please know that you, Skylar and Sydney are in my thoughts and prayers.
The Hay Family

Words cannot express our sadness. Upon sharing the news with our children, their first response was “No! Mr. Bogumil was an incredible human being…one of the best”. We have been working closely with him recently. His care, compassion and impact on our LHS children has been positively life-altering. We offer our sincere prayers and deepest condolences to your family for the loss of an irreplaceable person. Godspeed, beautiful Scott, and God bless your beautiful family during this tragic time. ❤
Lynne Greenwell
Please accept my sincere and heartfelt condolences for your loss. Mr. Bogumil was a wonderful guidance counselor and helped my daughter through some tough times during her high school experience at LHS. She always felt comfortable going to him and knew he would advocate for her. I can’t imagine what you must be going through! I pray that your loving memories of Scott will bring you through the difficult days ahead. God Bless your family!!
Donald Johnson
On Friday afternoon as he often did Scott stopped to talk to me briefly on his way out of the Studio Theater at Libertyville High School. Most of the time we would end up talking about his passion, basketball or sports in general sometimes just about life. The conversations usually lasted two minutes but in actuality, it was closer to fifteen minutes because we both had a lot to talk about. I will miss those talks now. He raised his hand high and waived goodbye for the last time as he hustled out the door. I offer my condolences to his family and friends in their time of grieving. God Bless.
Nikki Coscino
A mans success shows by the happiness of his wife and children. Your wife and daughters have always shown such pride and joy in life- your family full of traditions that your girls will pass along to their children one day. Thank you Scott for being such a good kind loving husband to my sister and wonderful Dad to your girls. You are a man that put quality and integrity into your life. Thank you for being such an inspiration to us all! You will be sorely missed sir.
Blessings and Peace to you

We are so very sorry to hear the sad news about Scott. Our deepest condolences to Stacey and the family during this difficult time.

May the Lords blessings be with you and hold you close during this sadness and may the memories of all the good times help keep all of us closer
Rachel Marzillo-Salas
What an honor it’s been to read all of these kind words written about Uncle Scott! He truly was a good man.. kind, welcoming, funny. I never heard anyone say a bad word about him and vise versa. I always appreciated his guidance and direction when I had questions about my path and academic future.
The memory that’s bringing some levity this morning, is the first time I saw him coach. Prior to this event, I had never seen my Uncle so much as raise his voice, but that day I saw him sweating, yelling and squatting while pulling his hair on the sidelines of this basketball game. I remember sitting in the stands with my mouth agape. He was so animated. The passion he had for the game was palpable. But just like that, after the game ended, he went back to his same ole soft-spoken character. BLEW MY MIND and makes me chuckle to this day!! Rest easy, Uncle Scott. May you have peace knowing that your girls have endless support and here’s hoping that there’s access to Basketball in Heaven.
My heart is with my Auntie Stacey and my sweet baby cousins today. Take care of one another and be patient with yourselves during this time. I love you guys xo
Tammy Gaile
I was so saddened to hear of Scott’s passing. He has been a wonderful counselor to my son. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

In the twinkling of an eye death comes in its own way and its own fashion. What a sadness for those of us who knew him and what a sadness for those who will never know him. A truly gentle man; a man of deep Faith and compassion….a forever friend.

Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.
Denise Young
So sorry, Stacey! Sending prayers out to you and your family.
Bill Milano
Dear Stacey, Skylar, and Sydney-I am so heartbroken to hear about the sudden loss of your wonderful husband and father, Scott or Bogs as friends affectionately called him. I have known Scott for over 30 years. We first met at DePaul as undergrads and became friends. Later, we completed the same counseling program together. We enjoyed many of the same activities and hung in the same counseling and coaching circles. Scott was such a GOOD PERSON and treated all people with dignity and respect. He is definitely watching down on all of us from his basketball court in HEAVEN! My sincere condolences to you. May GOD BLESS YOU!
Jennifer Hutchins
Stacey, Skyler and Sydney, The Hutchins Family is so very sorry for your sudden loss. Your Husband/Father was an awesome counselor to our two daughters, Maggie (class of 2020) and Kelly (class of 2024) Please know what a difference he made in their lives and in so many of the lives he touched.
Peace to your husband/dad , and strength to you and yours. HUGS, Jennifer, David, Maggie and Kelly Hutchins

God Bless the family.
Kurt D Hironimus
I have known Scott for these past 17 years first as a co-worker and later as a friend. We went to Cubs games together but, more importantly, spent quality time together in his office. Usually, we started by talking about a student, but we inevitably switched to the Cubs and our families. Scott loved his family and was great to talk to. Honestly, I’m at a loss for words, and that doesn’t happen often.
He will be missed.
Heather Mazzeno
