NORTH ADAMS, Mass. - Scott Michael Moran, 48, of North Adams, Mass., died Monday, January 13, 2020, at Berkshire Medical Center surrounded by his loving family.
Scott was born in North Adams on May 21, 1971. He was a graduate of the Drury High School Class of 1991. For many years, Scott owned and operated The Flooring Specialist, a flooring installation business that served Berkshire County. Most recently, Scott worked alongside his fiancée in their home daycare, Jessica Perras’ Family Child Care. Scott thrived in this atmosphere, where his innate ability to console and entertain children was in high demand. He was also active in local youth athletics, coaching girls soccer, basketball, and t-ball, where his skills were further put to the test.
Scott brimmed with pride for his large family, which he affectionally referred to as The Moran Clan. He lived for his children. Neither distance nor time could weaken the love shared among them.
A vivacious conversationalist, it was common to catch Scott around town chatting with friends and strangers alike. Often dressed in the colors of his favorite sports teams—the Patriots and Celtics, especially—talk frequently turned to the latest happenings in the athletic world. Despite his affinity for New England teams, Steph Curry was a prominent subject of his acclaim.
Scott leaves his mother Kathleen (Moran) Lynn of North Adams, his fiancée Jessica Perras of North Adams; his six children, Brodey Moran of Houston, Texas, and Jordan Moran, Faith Moran, Hope Moran, Sophia Moran and Aurora Moran, all of North Adams.
He was predeceased by his stepfather, Richard Lynn.
A sudden and unexpected loss, Scott will be missed by his family, friends, and the Northern Berkshire community.
Funeral notice: Calling hours will be held on Saturday, January 18, 2020, from noon until 2 p.m. A memorial service will follow immediately thereafter. Both will be at the FLYNN & DAGNOLI FUNERAL HOME WEST CHAPEL, 521 West Main St, North Adams, MA 01247.
Donations in Scott’s memory may be made to the Drury High School Athletic Department through the funeral home.
