CYNTHIA L. SCOTT

CYNTHIA L. SCOTT Cynthia L. Scott, 68, passed away on Monday, April 17, 2023 in Garden City, Kansas. She was the daughter of Freeman and Evelyn (Severin) Scott, born on June 17, 1954 in St. Joseph, Missouri. After earning her English degree in 1981 at Southwest Missouri State University in Springfield, Missouri, Cindy moved to Garden City, Kansas with her family in 1989. She had a passion and talent for writing. Cindy worked as an Administrative Assistant for the State of Kansas Social & Rehabilitation Services/Department for Children and Families from 1989 until her retirement on September 15, 2014. After her retirement, Cindy lived a quiet life and enjoyed her peace and solitude. She spent her time reading books, listening to music, and watching old movies. She loved animals and plants, often just enjoying listening to the birds outside her window. Cindy was kind hearted and caring. She was a very private person, but when she got to know you, she was a good listener and loved having conversations about anything and everything. She always appreciated visits from close friends and they brightened her mood, especially when they brought her favorite drink: A large Mocha Frappe. She loved Mexican food, particularly some spicy salsa. Survivors include her sister Julie (Scott) Gummelt of St. Joseph, Missouri, three nieces Emily (Gummelt) Morrison of Independence, Missouri, Bethany (Gummelt) Goettling of Independence, Missouri, Stephanie Gummelt of St. Joseph, Missouri, one nephew, Russell Gummelt of St. Joseph, Missouri and close friends Jessica Gomez and Lorie Liechti. She is preceded in death by her parents. There will be no services held at this time. Condolences may be posted by visiting www.garnandfuneralhomes.com
