TRAGIC: Scott Adams’ Ex-Wife & Caretaker Passes Away

We have some sad news to bring you.

As you probably know, Dilbert comic creator Scott Adams passed away after a long battle with prostate cancer earlier this year.

In his final days, he was cared for by his ex-wife Shelly Miles.

She was the one who announced Adams’ death and shared the good news that he accepted Jesus Christ before his passing.

For reference, here’s the video of Shelly reading Scott Adams’ final letter:

Scott Adams leaves one final message for his followers, says he has accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior before telling his life story.

The letter was read by his ex-wife.

“If you are reading this, things did not go well for me. I have a few things to say before I go. My body failed before my brain. I am of sound mind as I write this January 1st, 2026.”

“I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and look forward to spending an eternity with Him…”
