Lennart Scott Swedberg, 77, set eternal sail on July 20, 2021, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Scott is survived by his wife Lora (née White); daughter Morgan Seymour (Jake); brother John Swedberg (Leisa); brothers/sisters-in-law Priscilla W. Fisher (Tom) and Dan White (Stacey); beloved nephews Tomas Swedberg, Robert White (Angie), Brad White (Leslie), Patrick Elmenthaler (Mary Colleen), and adored niece Kate Staffa (Mark). He is predeceased by his parents Lennart and Dorothy (née McCleery) Swedberg. Born in Columbus, Ohio, on February 23, 1944, Scott spent much of his childhood living in Stockholm, Sweden. He attended the Frankfurt American High School in Germany, spending weekends with family in Cologne or getting into shenanigans with friends throughout Europe. He graduated from The Ohio State University, having been a member of Phi Delta Theta and the varsity Track & Field team, hurdling under the coaching of Larry Snyder. He served as a 1st Lieutenant in Vietnam in U.S. Army Military Intelligence. Scott went on to earn his MBA at Michigan State University, focused on finance and hotel management. He spent his career in commercial real estate with Prudential, developing and managing hotels and office buildings. Scott was a lifelong lover of sailing, sports (especially OSU football, MSU basketball, tennis, and golf), and good times with family and friends. When he met future wife, Lora, he was avidly scuba diving. His marriage proposal went something like: "I'm going on a dive trip in March. It could be a honeymoon…." She promptly earned a PADI certificate and both enjoyed a diving honeymoon in Grand Cayman, a favorite spot. He sailed extensively throughout the Great Lakes, and later lived aboard a 42-foot sailboat with his wife and daughter, traipsing along the East Coast and Bahamas. After moving back to Cincinnati, he learned new skills renovating the entire house, and volunteering as a hurdle coach at Sycamore Junior High. He enjoyed performances at the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, Playhouse in the Park, and the Western & Southern Open. Known to his friends and colleagues as someone who was punctual, buttoned-up, and a straight shooter, Scott believed in always finishing what he started. He loved to pass along his wisdom and life lessons, encouraging curiosity in a breadth of knowledge, and stressing "practice, patience, persistence" in all endeavors. A private celebration of life will be held at the discretion of his family.
