Scott Joseph Gogreve, a native of Baton Rouge, passed away on Saturday, February 10, 2018 at the age of 40. He was a graduate of Bishop Sullivan High school, where he played on the soccer team. He attended Northwestern State University. He later moved to California and worked in the film industry on commercials and television as a production assistant and later progressed to the art department. Scott was an avid Saints fan who had a passion for dogs, golf, video games and a love of visiting museums. Strong in his beliefs, Scott had a huge heart of gold and never met a stranger.
