Legacy Cremation & Funeral Services - AndersonDonna Scott Obituary
Sunrise: March 22, 1962 – Sunset: October 14, 2025
Donna Marie Scott, of Anderson, Indiana, entered eternal rest on October 14, 2025. She was born on March 22, 1962, in Lexington, Kentucky, to Ralph and Donna Haile.
Donna spent much of her life caring for others—a true caregiver at heart. Strong, independent, and full of spirit, she raised four children and filled her days with laughter, creativity, and love. She enjoyed diamond art, crafts, playing cards, and most of all, spending time with her grandchildren and family. Her humor and warmth made every gathering brighter.
Donna was a proud member of Elm Grove Christian Church, where she found faith and friendship.
She is survived by her children: Nettie (Conrado) Garcia, Natalie (Donald) Money, Nellie (Michael) Sczesny, and Nathan (Ashlee) Money; grandchildren Christian (Trista) Lopez, Silvano Trinidad, Chaston Green, Saya (Sierra) Trinidad, Malachi Money, Clara Breece, Annah Money, Triston Sczesny, and Logan Crabtree; and great-grandchildren Migiel Lopez, Cecilia Velasquez, and Luna Lopez.
She is also survived by her siblings Ralph (Heidi) Haile, Jacquline (Ted) Drach, and Allison Maldonado; and many beloved nieces and nephew: Dennis Lamb, Tonya Drach, Natasha Watson, Melissa York, Lisa Ross, Angie Topper, and Brani Carey.
Donna’s memory will also be cherished by her dear friends Melinda Bliss, Judy Carter, and Debbie (Michael) Whiteman.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Ralph and Donna Haile; her brother, Johnny Haile; and special friends Bill Lawson, Roy Money, and Tammy Carter.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Elm Grove Christian Church on Saturday October 25th, 2025 at 2pm.
Donna’s strength, humor, and love for her family will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew her.
