Scott DeVore, 66, of Hampstead, MD, passed away on July 6, 2026, surrounded by his family.

 

Born in Hurricane, WV, he was the son of Carroll Howard DeVore and the late Reba (née Sanders) DeVore. He was the husband of Susan DeVore, his wife of 44 years.

 

Scott leaves behind a legacy built on hard work, creativity, and a refusal to back down from a challenge. He was a father, a proud veteran of the US Navy, a self-employed mechanical engineer, and a lifelong outdoorsman.

 

His legendary stubbornness was his greatest asset; he had no patience for "it can't be done," and spent his career proving the skeptics wrong with creative engineering solutions and sheer determination. When he wasn’t tinkering with the unfixable, Scott was drawn to the outdoors. Whether he was tracking game or trapping crabs, he found joy in nature, which he loved to share with his family.

 

He is survived by his father Carroll (Connie); his wife Susan; his children Ruth (Daniel), Patricia, and Elsie; his brother Rick (Laura); his sister Katie (Dana, Adrienne, Madeline); and other extended family.

 

To celebrate Scott's life, please join us for a happy hour style gathering at Maggie's in Westminster on August 15, 2026, from 1pm-4pm. Light fare and beverages will be provided. Please do not feel obligated to stay the entire time; dress comfortably, come as you are, and share your favorite Scott story.

 

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Scott's name to the National Veterans Outdoor Resource HUB or the American Kidney Fund.

Stephen Cecil Waller

Stephen “Steve” Cecil Waller, 72, of Rossville, Georgia passed away on Friday, January 2, 2026. He was born on March 17, 1953 in Rahway, NJ to Cecil and Olga Waller and was the only son of seven children. He was of the Christian faith.

He graduated from Notre Dame High School in 1971, received his bachelor’s degree from UTC, and his master’s degree, summa cum laude from Emory University. Steve served as a Corpsman in the U.S. Navy with the Marine Corps serving in both Vietnam and the Philippines, and also served in the Arkansas Army National Guard. He spent most of his career as a physician’s assistant in the Chattanooga area.

​

Steve was known as a prankster who loved sharing obscure facts and stories, though you could never quite tell when he was exaggerating. He was never without a questionable home-improvement project and loved hunting, fishing, woodworking, and spending time with his sons and family.

He was preceded in death by his parents, grandson Samuel Jack Waller, and sisters Patricia Chrnalogar and Lorraine Waller.

​

He leaves behind to cherish his memory wife Cynthia Waller, sons Joshua Waller (Amanda) and Zachary Waller (Misty), stepsons Matt Casey and Preston Casey (Bianca), sisters Diana Smith, Mary Farrar (Jimmy), Joann Trimble, and Eve Ellis (Brian), grandchildren Maggie Waller (Trevor Marcy) and Aaron Waller, step grandchildren Ronin and Carter Casey, many nieces and nephews, and friends, especially Joe and Julie Key.

​

Per Steve’s wishes, a private family service will be held with a celebration of life to follow at a later date.

​

In lieu of flowers, the family welcomes memorial donations to the Katz-Moses Woodworkers with Disabilities Fund or the National Veterans Outdoor Resource HUB in honor of Stephen Waller.

Nicholas George Reviglio

Nicholas George Reviglio

Nicholas George Reviglio... In the early morning of October 22nd, in the grandest opening of the deep Montana sky, the earth stopped for a moment, and while at peace working on his land, Nicholas George Reviglio took his last breaths, and was delivered onto Heaven.

​

He is survived by his wonderful family, wife Holly, three sons Wyatt (23), Doc (13), and Cash (11), mother and father, Vicki and Tom Reviglio, and brother Tony. He is also survived by many very close relatives that consist of Aunts, and numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, brother and sister-in-law's and countless friends. What he leaves behind is so much more!

​

Nick was born on March 1st, 1971 and raised in the small community of Reno, NV. He would spend his childhood attending Catholic school at Snows Elementary, followed by graduating Reno High School in 1990. It was during these younger years that Nick would create bonds with family and friends that would continue to serve him throughout his life.

​

After high school, Nick went on to further his education at UNLV, where he joined Kappa Sigma Fraternity and later attended UNR. It was during those years that he found his true passion in becoming an Entrepreneur and after working for his family's business, Western Nevada Supply, Nick ventured out on his own. For the next 23 yrs Nick worked tirelessly creating and honing his passions in multimedia and programming. Along with his wife, they built several companies over the years with their most recent being REVIGLiOS, an international mobile app company. In a nutshell Nick took pride in adapting, and being different which was evident in the relationships he built in long term clients such as the UFC, NASCAR, Bally Gaming and Scientific Games corporation to name a few. He found his greatest pride and achievements in being married and raising his three boys, and taking them on adventures around the world living in places like Nevada, Pennsylvania, England and Europe and teaching them what it meant to chase your dreams around the globe.

​

Nick was raised Catholic, and it was in the Church of England he identified a religious connection, however his truest spiritual connections came in his biggest passions in life. His love of skiing the mountains in his back yard in Tahoe, hiking trails and ski slopes around the world, and working to build his home, on the land he and his family had recently purchased In Eureka, Montana.

​

Rest assured there is true peace in knowing after all the accolades of a full life lived, in a short time, his legacy will forever be guided by his spirit that overlooks what he left behind.

​

In Nick's memory, in lieu of flowers, we ask you leave a donation to a charity that he had a great passion to serve and honor, US Vet Connect Inc. (www.usvetconnect.com) to help disabled vets ski, hike and stay connected with the outdoors.
