Phyllis SCOTT Obituary

PHYLLIS IRENE SCOTT 1926 - 2022 Phyllis Scott passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 13 in Peterborough. Devoted wife of 66 years to her husband Bob, who predeceased her in 2017. Loving mother of Susan Scott and Nancy Stewart (David) and adoring grandmother of Lindsay Stewart and John Stewart. Phyllis was an amazingly positive woman, who only saw the best in people and circumstances and was devoted to her family. Committed community volunteer, fabulous hostess, avid gardener and bridge player extraordinaire. She was a gracious, kind and generous woman. Phyllis was the last of her generation of the Valliant family, born January 7, 1926 in Montreal to Robert and Ella Valliant and predeceased by her siblings Melvin Valliant (Sasha), Joyce Armour (Victor) and Robin Barnes. Phyllis also had a special relationship with her many nieces, nephews and their children. We will deeply miss her generosity, unconditional love and radiant smile. The family would like to thank the wonderful people of Royal Gardens for their kind and loving care of Phyllis. There will be a funeral service and reception at St. John's Anglican Church, 99 Brock Street in Peterborough on Saturday, October 22, 2022 at 11:00 a.m. Interment will take place at Little Lake Cemetery at 1:00 p.m. Arrangements entrusted to Highland Park Funeral Centre. Donations in Phyllis's memory may be made to St. John's Anglican Church Peterborough.

Phyllis was a WONDERFUL Zumba Gold participant at Royal Gardens. She would be there with her kind daughter Susan each Thursday morning. Phyllis moved extremely well with a big smile on her face. She would sing Que Sera Sera with our sing-along tune. I miss Phyllis and Susan !!! God Bless you !! Zumba Jasmine Murray

Susan
We met several times in the reception area of the Royal waiting for our test results. My dog Charley, a black Lab is often with me. I´m so sorry to hear about your mothers death. I hope that the many visits you made to the Royal to see her and the time you enjoyed together will help you heal. My condolences.

PS our mothers likely knew each other at Stoney Lake. We summered at the Cole "Dingley" cottage on Big Otter island until the early 70s. My children still go to the Earle cottage near Crowes

I was fond of Phyllis and will remember her warmly and honour the time we shared over challenging Scrabble games for a few Thanksgivings and Christmases. Phyllis was a champion and will be dearly missed. You have my deepest sympathy.
