I am so sorry to hear this news. She was a great neighbor and a beautiful person. My prayers are with you during this time.
Your mom was one of the kindest, most generous people I have ever known. The years I worked with her at South Elementary are still dear memories for me. Please know I pray peace and comfort for all of you at this time.
Wow, I am just now seeing this and my heart has sank. Mrs Scott who was an educational assistant in many of my Elementary classes was heavily on my mind today and I decided to do a Facebook & Google search to arrive at this sad news. She took a special interest in me and helped nurture my educational career, always pushing and motivating me and encouraging me to do my best and outside of that nothing else mattered. She took special interest in many of us spreading her love and wonderful smile along the way. I remember how patiently and calmly worked with one of our blind classmates- Michael Barnard. Helping others was definitely her calling. I will always love and remember you, Mrs Scott❤️😢❤️🙏
