MADISON - Scotty Prentiss, age 36, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, June 28, 2014.

He was born on Jan. 20, 1978, in Los Angeles, Calif., the son of Andrew and Jane (Iverson) Prentiss. He began his culinary career in Los Angeles and followed his passions with a move to Madison where he also enjoyed the outdoors, camping and the peacefulness of nature. Scotty worked at various Madison restaurants and enjoyed expanding his culinary knowledge.

It was in Madison where he met the love of his life, Monica Slagel, and they were married on June 2, 2007, in First Lutheran Church in Middleton. Two years later they were blessed with their first child, Oliver, in 2009, and Natalie, in 2011. It was then he found his true calling and was an outstanding father. In the last year of his life, which he regarded as the best, he stayed at home with the children, cared for them and loved introducing them to new and interesting experiences.

In addition to his wife, Monica, Scotty is survived by his children, Oliver Jay and Natalie Mary; his parents, Andrew and Jane Prentiss; a brother, Blaine Prentiss; paternal grandmother, Iva Prentiss; maternal grandmother, Joy Hartwick; his in-laws, Jay and Priscilla Slagel; a sister-in-law, Elizabeth Slagel; a brother-in-law, Brian Slagel; and many friends.

Memorial services will be held at BLACKHAWK CHURCH, 9620 Brader Way, Middleton, at 11 a.m., on Wednesday, July 2, 2014. There will be a time to share memories with the family after the service. In lieu of flowers, memorials would be appreciated for an educational fund to be established for his children. Online condolences may be made at www.gundersonfh.com.

He m. Monica Slagel on 2 Jun 2007, in First Lutheran Church in Middleton, WI. Children:

The only information we have so far is from Andrew's son's obituary and that Andrew Prentiss' mother is Iva Prentiss. Scott was b. in 1978.
- If we assume 30 years per generation, that would mean Scott's father was b. c. 1948, with Iva's birth about 1918.
- If we assume 40 years per generation, that would mean Scott's father was b. c. 1938, with Iva's birth about 1908.

Since Iva would seem to be a fairly rare name, we searched the LDS database for a PRENTISS who had a wife named IVA. The only one shown in LDS was Kingsley W. Prentiss, b. 1899, who m. Iva May Grimes on 8 Dec 1928 in Boulder, Boulder Co., CO. The 1930 census shows Kingsley and Iva as both b. c. 1898 in IL.

Iva apparently with a 2nd wife because Ancestry.com shows an earlier Kingsley marriage to Mary K. Roberts on 18 Dec 1923, Jackson, MO.

Investigation is continuing to determine with this the correct Iva named in Scott's obituary.
