Edward Forbes Obituary

August 22, 2025

With a profound sense of loss, we announce the passing of beloved husband, son, brother, and uncle, Scott, aged 61.
Scott's life was one of joy and connection. A people person to the core, he never forgot a name or a face and was, above all else, a kind human. He did not walk into a room of strangers, only people that he hadn't yet met with the strongest handshake and largest genuine smile stating, "Hi there. Scott Forbes". There was not much on earth that Scott enjoyed more than skiing in Aspen, the game of hockey, an old Porsche, and a tasty local beer.
Scott's career took him to many cities and fortune smiled on him when he landed in Denver with The Integer Group. It was there he met the love of his life, Julie, and together they built a wonderful life filled with friends, family, and adventures.
Scott was a voracious reader and talented writer, known for a regular cadence of letters sent via post to friends and family.
He was a proud graduate of The Blake School, New Hampton School, and St. Lawrence University.

Scott is survived by his wife, Julie; father, Ted Forbes (Cindy), sisters Libby Utter (John) and Kerry Forbes, nieces Ellie, Courtney, Shelby, Natasha and nephews Stewart (Alexis), Tad (Caitlin), Andrew, and Eric (Rachel). He was preceded in death by his mother, Roxann Forbes.
Donations may be made to the American Heart Association or The Blake School.
Scott created a life filled with joy, love, laughter, close family and wonderful friends. He never missed an opportunity to let someone know he was thinking of them. Honor Scott by dropping a letter in the mail, calling someone to say hi, or taking time to enjoy your version of Powder Days & Bluebird Skies. He would absolutely love it!
A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday, October 22, from 2-5 pm at the Foothills Golf Course Clubhouse, 3901 South Carr Street, Denver, CO 80235

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
