She has six grandchildren who were truly the light of her life who will never forget their Mamaw Scott: Adam Story (fiancé Christina Bartlett), Cecily Story, Matthew Pinegar (wife Andrea), Zachary Pinegar (wife Carolanne), Kaley Scott, and Caroline Scott. She also has seven great-grandchildren, and one who is expected to arrive in October.

I still remember the beautiful cabbage patch kids cake Aunt Verla Jean made for my birthday when I was little. She was a wonderful woman with so many gifts and such a kind heart. I know she will be watching down on us all. She will be truly missed.

What wonderful memories I have, especially as I was growing up in the Rose City CP Church. The strong, serving women of the church were true blessings and examples that have guided me over the years. Prayers and many thanks to all the Scott family.

A very grand lady. My heart is sad at her passing into the Lord's keeping. She was a neighbor for many years and will miss her kind heart and love she had for everyone she had contact with. A true angel on earth taken to be an angel in heaven. May the Lord watch over and be with all the family and friends as they celebrate her being called home.
