Northville Township Mourns Loss of Beloved Trustee and Community Leader Scott Frush
In the heart of Northville Township, a profound silence has settled in as friends, family, and community members grapple with the unexpected loss of a cherished leader, Scott Paul Frush. The 53-year-old trustee passed away suddenly on January 11, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of service, dedication, and heartfelt community involvement.
Scott Frush, born on January 19, 1971, in Southfield, Michigan, was the beloved son of Michael and Charlotte Frush, and Nancy and Howard Katz. He built a beautiful life with his wife, Christina (née Fallone), celebrating 19 memorable years together, and raising two wonderful children, Gabriella and Ryan. His family ties extended through his three supportive brothers, Michael, Todd, and Jason, who lovingly stood by his side throughout his life.
A Life of Excellence and Education
With a passion for education and a knack for finance, Scott earned a Doctorate in Business Administration from the University of Florida and an MBA from the esteemed University of Notre Dame. He also completed his undergraduate degree at Eastern Michigan University. Scott used his knowledge and skills as a successful investment advisor and published author, with multiple financial books reaching readers through McGraw-Hill.
Scott’s commitment to his community became especially evident with his appointment as a Northville Township Trustee in 2019. He was passionate about improving local systems and was proudly reelected in the fall of 2024. His role as Deputy Treasurer, beginning in 2021, showcased his financial expertise, leading to the township achieving a remarkable AAA bond rating and a significant reduction in water rates.
Community Engagement
Scott Frush was the kind of guy who believed in giving back. He immersed himself in various local initiatives aimed at enhancing the quality of life for residents, pouring his energy into projects related to local parks and youth sports. His commitment to the environment and responsible management of landfill activities was highlighted by his recent appointment to the Washtenaw County materials management planning committee just before his untimely passing.
Scott’s influence reached beyond the township, as he was also an active member of Our Lady of Good Counsel Church in Plymouth and served on the Northville Township Parks and Recreation Commission, demonstrating his dedication to promoting health and wellness in the community.
A Community in Mourning
The impact of Scott’s passing is immeasurable, with flags in Northville Township being flown at half-staff as a tribute to this remarkable man. A visitation is scheduled for January 16, 2025, from 2 PM to 8 PM at the Harry J. Will Funeral Home in Livonia. A eulogy is set to take place at 7 PM, followed by a rosary at 7:30 PM.
Join family and friends in honoring Scott’s life during the Funeral Mass, which will occur on January 17, 2025, at 10:30 AM at Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Church in Plymouth, where attendees can arrive for in-state viewing beginning at 10 AM. The ceremony will conclude as Scott is laid to rest at Glen Eden Memorial Park in Livonia.
In a township known for its close-knit community, the loss of Scott Frush leaves a notable void. As loved ones adjust to life without him, the incredible legacy he built will continue to inspire those who knew him. Rest in peace, Scott—your dedication and warmth will never be forgotten.
