Scooter truly lived life to the fullest through simple pleasures. She loved chatting with family and friends, snacking, and spending time with her grandchildren and great- grandchildren. She loved to cook, bake and play bingo. She also loved to do crafts, sit on her porch playing phone games, and her dance moves were spot-on, whether she was sitting or standing. Scooter was also a loud and proud Pittsburgh Steelers fan.

She leaves behind her two sons, William and Don Ohler; brothers, William T. Hite, Jr. (Buddy), and Robert Hite (Irene); sisters, Katherine "Corky" (Juan) Garcia, and Robin Hite; lifelong partner, Robert Jiles; stepchildren, Koree Shubert, Traci Maderitz, and Kristy Maderitz (Eric Carter); seven grandchildren, Shayla Edwards, Ebony Davis (Darrin Hall Jr), E'moni Davis, Morgan McLennan, Robert Maderitz, Grayson McLennan and Dream Carter; five great-grandchildren; a host of nieces and nephews; and her precious dog, Peanut.

Scooter will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
