My prayers are with all of you as you continue through this time of sorrow. Your mother was such a strong women. I too, remember many good times with all of you at Central UMC. I remember her having to battle many tough times and I am sad to know that her health was a contributor to her passing. I am at peace knowing that your mom, a women of God, is resting with the Lord in the land of peace. I send you hope for the coming days and strength to get you through them. God Bless all of you!

Dear Tammy, John, Wendy, Chad, Jay, Lyndon and Patrick,
I have lots of memories of the old days when we all attended Central Church together--it seems like yesterday. I enjoyed watching you all grow up. The love your mom had for each of you was very apparent. I pray God's comforting hand on each of you.

My sympathy to all of the Scott family. Lyndon's and my paths have crossed many times over the years beginning when he was in junior high and I was a substitute teacher. And I recall Chad as a classmate of my daughter, Jaclyn. Take care of one another.

Dear Tammy, John, Wendy, Chad, Jay, Lyndon, and Patrick- It seems like yesterday that you would look across to the other side of the balcony at Central United Methodist Church and see all of you lined up on the pew with your Mother. May memories of the good times growing up in Traverse City remain with you, even as you grieve her passing. Blessings to all of you-

My mom called me to tell me about seeing the notice regarding your mom. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. Your mom was a strong woman.
