Judy Scott Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by House-Rawlings Funeral Home - London on Dec. 26, 2025.
Judy Scott, age 77, of London, Kentucky passed away on Friday, December 26, 2025.

She leaves behind three children, Tommy E. Scott Jr. & wife Jeannie of London, KY, Shawn Scott & wife Melinda of London, KY, Jason Scott & wife Chasity of Danville, KY; five siblings, James Johnson & wife Sally of London, KY, Etta Lou Hodge & husband Mike of East Bernstadt, KY, George Johnson & wife Linda of London, KY, Sharlene Thompson of London, KY, Doug Johnson of Manchester, KY; five grandchildren, Jamie Howard, Natasha Boone, Brittany Hillard, Shawn Cobb, Hayden Scott; eleven great grandchildren; plus a host of other family and friends to cherish her memory.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Tommy E. Scott Sr; her parents, Jake and Celia Evans Johnson; two children, Khristy Howard, James Scott; five siblings, Mike Wayne Johnson, Bill Lee Johnson, Cora Sue Burns, Charles Ray Johnson, Jodi Johnson; and by her grandson, Steven Cobb.

Judy leaves behind a legacy of quiet strength, hard work, and deep devotion to her family and faith.

Judy was employed for many years as a housekeeper at Best Western, where she was known for her strong work ethic, reliability, and pride in a job well done. She served others with humility and care, never seeking recognition, yet earning the respect of coworkers and guests alike.

Above all else, Judy was devoted to her children and grandchildren. Her family was the center of her life, and she poured her love into caring for them, supporting them, and celebrating their lives. Time spent with her grandchildren brought her great joy, and she cherished every moment with them.

Judy was a woman of Baptist faith and a faithful member of Star of Bethlehem Church. Her faith guided her life and provided comfort and strength through all seasons. She lived her beliefs through kindness, perseverance, and a servant's heart.

Judy will be remembered for her gentle spirit, her unwavering love for her family, and the quiet ways she touched the lives of those around her. Her memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
