April 16, 1970 – August 01, 2026

It is with very heavy hearts that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Scott (Scotty) Lancaster at the age of 56 years. Scott is survived by his sister, Tammy Lancaster, his nephew and Godson Christopher Forest Easey, his great nephew Miller John Easey, cousins Lee and Kim Brown and cousins Nancy, Josie and Michael Mousseau who were raised like brothers and sisters to Scott. He is predeceased by his parents David Lancaster and Lynda Payette, his grandfather, Leading Seaman (Retired) R.C.N.V.R. Jean-Yves (John) Payette and his dear Grandmother Grace Payette (nee Hansen).

Scott took great pride in having served his Country as an Infantry Officer with the Governor General’s Foot Guards. He showcased Canada for countless during the Ceremonial Changing of the Guard Ceremony on Parliament Hill. His service spanned from 1988 to 2005 where he met so many friends who he had kept in touch with within the Guards family to this day.

Scotty will also be deeply missed by the Stereo ((())) family, for the incredible memories he helped create, and for his mentorship and promotion of new and emerging talent. Scott was a co-owner of the revered institution from 2002 to 2010.

Scott will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by his many friends, who will carry his memory and the incredible mark he left in their lives.

Friends and Family are invited to a Graveside service at Beechwood Cemetery, 280 Beechwood Ave. Ottawa, Ontario, K1L 8A6, on Thursday, 17 September 2026, at 11:00 am, followed by a celebration of Scott’s life at Beechwood Funeral Home from 12-2pm.

For those wishing, memorial donations to the Governor General’s Foot Guards Association would be gratefully appreciated. https://www.ggfgra.ca/support-the-ggfgra

  1. Incredibly sorry to hear of his passing. My condolences to his entire family.

  2. I remember Scott from my years in the regiment from 1988 – 1992. He was a solid member of the regiment and a fine young office (as I remember him). Rest in Peace Scott. My condolences to his family.

  3. I had the pleasure of sharing time with Scotty when he transitioned from his military, working and civilian life to the nightlife. He always had a light in his eyes no matter what was transpiring around him. Honourable and loyal to a fault and ready to help anyone in need. Always open to new ideas and creating new opportunities with people in life, business; music and entertainment. You will be missed my friend. I offer Condolences to your family and our friends. Blessed to have been part of your life and had you in my life during the good times and tough….love and prayers always and see you again. I salute you.

  4. We crossed paths briefly, but he left his mark…what a special and beautiful human! So shocked to learn of this. My heartfelt condolences to his family.

  5. Met him in 2002 when he moved to Montreal and bought Stereo, although he did a great job and made the place so more classy while he owned it because people caught on how smart he was and his army history though he was way better than that, the current owners ousted him and were beyond horrible to him when doing so, though he stayed so strong. He was far too good for them, he was far too good for even Montreal. I wish he didn’t take that turn and go into that scene, he was so smart and could have even gone to Wall Street or any financial district in the world. It’s a real shame this quirky fun guy has left us, he always with that smile and somehow made things less at ease. Its an utter shame that he’s not with us anymore, it really is. Thanks for the good times Scotty I’m going to miss you.

  6. Remembering Scott as we trained together for the Canadian Forces Small Competition in the 90s. Early morning PT, running around Connaught Ranges. Doing 500-100 metre rundowns and dodging all the ground hog holes. Some of us did end up in those holes. Scott lighting up a cigarette after a good run – crazy guy. He wanted to learn how the shooting world functioned and he did a good job at it. He was a lot of fun in the Officers Mess also. Recently we just reconnected. Glad for that. RIP Scotty. My condolences to his family and friends.

  7. Scotty, you were always so gracious and kind. I am still shocked that you’re gone. I have nothing but positive memories, but wish we could add more. Til we meet in the next life… much love.

  8. Dear Scotty, what great times we had during my tenure at Stereo.
    I will miss your quirky jokes and your infectious smile.
    RIP Buddy 💙
