Scott Joseph Ebner

Scott was born on August 27, 1953, in Ishpeming, the son of Joseph and Donna (Mills) Ebner. He grew up in Crystal Falls and graduated from Crystal Falls High School. He also graduated from NMU with his bachelor’s degree in teaching.

Scott met his wife of 40 years, Lisa Harju, in 1982 while snowmobiling with friends. They married on May 25, 1983. Over the years, they would go on many snowmobile and motorcycle rides together. In more recent years, they spent their weekends at Camp working on projects together.

Scott was the proud father of two daughters, Jennifer and Jessica. He was the best Dad a girl could ask for and was loved very much. He was always there with a hearty Ebner laugh or to provide comfort with a kind ear and soft heart.

He was a selfless man who was always willing to help others. He spent his summers helping family, friends and neighbors renovate their homes, build camps, and other various projects.

As the auto shop teacher at Gladstone High School for 20 years, he hosted Night Shop on Wednesday nights where the community could bring their cars for his students to work on and further their auto repair experience. Cars and trucks were his passion. In addition to working on countless vehicles for family, friends and students, he restored many of his own vehicles and would always share stories of his 1970s Pontiac Firebird. Prior to his death, he was restoring his “Pa’s” ’72 Chevy C-10 camp truck.

Scott also enjoyed hunting, was a proud Boy Scout, and a Green Bay Packer fan. He made a strong impact on the lives around him, and he will be missed by many.

Scott is survived by his loving wife, Lisa; children, Jennifer (Andy Whiteman) Ebner and Jessica Ebner; siblings, Sandy (Russell) Bruneske and Betty Ebner; nieces, Mary and Bree Bellefeuille, and grand-niece Jordan Ebner.

Scott was preceded in death by his parents and niece Michele Bellefeuille.
