Adelyn K. "Addie" Scott passed away peacefully on October 10, 2025, just one day before her 83rd birthday. Born near Elyria, Kansas, she later graduated from Newton High School.

A celebration of life will be held October 16 at 10 a.m. at Denton Village Chapel, 2500 Hinkle Dr., Denton, TX. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Humane Society.
