Hassie Scott Obituary
She had the best attendance at the Emmaus House senior program, where she loved to dance, quilt, paint pictures and make pads for cancer patients. She was one of the oldest and fastest participants in the city's Senior Walk.
She also participated in protests on social issues and bridged the generation gap to encourage young adults back to church.
"She was always busy. She never sat down. She felt it was her calling to be engaged," said Columbus Ward, former assistant director in charge of senior programs at the Emmaus House. "Because she was older than us and so active, she motivated us to never give up."
Friends and family recall a spunky but kindhearted Christian who didn't slow down during her golden years. She loved to help others and have fun.
Scott of Jonesboro died June 30 of pneumonia at Emory Midtown Hospital. She was 110. Read the news obituary

To the Family of Mrs. Hassie White Scott,
God is truly glorious! Ms. Hassie is proof of that; to have lived 110 years of God at His finest. I would have loved to sat down to listen to the stories from Ms.Hassie Louvenia. What a blessing!

I am very sad to hear of the recent death of such an active, kind and interesting person. She obviously loved life and had a desire to help others enjoy life too. No doubt every one that knew her wish she could always be with them. An interesting Bible verse at John 3:36 tells of a time when that will be possible.
