Scott George Gelok, 28, of Wayne, NJ, passed away on Friday, July 31, 2015. A lifelong Wayne resident, Scott was born in 1986. He attended Wayne schools throughout his childhood and was a 2004 graduate of Wayne Hills High School. Scott enjoyed playing a variety of sports throughout his youth, but his favorite was football beginning at age 7 at Wayne PAL, followed by winning two State Championships over his four years at Wayne Hills High School.
Scott then attended Rutgers University where he had a passion for business and culinary arts. He loved sports, especially the Yankees, Giants, and Celtics and went to countless games with his uncle Alan Pinajian. Scott also enjoyed writing music and listened to an assortment including reggae, hip hop and rock. He was an avid reader and movie connoisseur, but his ultimate zeal was for cooking, which was proven regularly by his pure joy in preparing a special meal for others.
Most importantly, Scott valued his family and friends and made a positive impact on all in which he came in contact. Scott expressed daily how much he loved his family and couldn’t wait to “make babies” of his own. Scott was a humble, funny man who enjoyed pranks, emanated charm and compassion, class and beauty, which shined through his golden smile, “smiling eyes” and bear hugs.
Scott is survived by his parents Cliff and Cindy Fisher of Wayne; sisters: Tracy Gelok of Wayne, and Kimberly Fisher of Wayne, nephew; Giorgio Robert Olmo, grandmother; Shirley Pinajian of Wayne, grandparents Clifford and Elaine Fisher of W. Melbourne, Florida and Marvin and Marilyn Rosen of Bradley Beach, NJ; Uncle Alan Pinajian of Wayne, Uncle William Rosen and his wife Kristin of Neptune, NJ, Aunt Arlene Lerman and her husband William of Hackettstown, NJ, Uncle Mark Fisher and his wife Sharon of Hawthorne, NJ, Aunt Cathy Young and her husband Brian of Deland, FL; and cousins: Brianna, Rebecca, Matthew, Sebastian, Matthew, Danielle, Christy, Jennifer and Alex; and many dear friends who were like brothers and sisters to Scott.
Scott was predeceased by his grandfather George Pinajian in 1983, by his aunt Ellen in 2005, his cousin Jessica in 2008, his cousin Liam in 2009, and his cousin Stephen 2012.
Memorial: C/O Cindy Fisher, 567 Ratzer Road, Wayne, NJ 07470 for Wayne Hills High School students who will be attending Rutgers University or studying Culinary Arts.
