Paula Scott Obituary
Paula was a 25-year employee of Medical Center Hospital/Cerner primarily in the I.T. Department. She loved traveling and going to Vegas with her "Flamingo Friends", visiting with her grandchildren, and cruising to just about anywhere. She was fun loving when you could pry her away from home, and a one of a kind friend to family, friends, and co-workers. She will be sorely missed.
Those left to cherish her love and memories are her son: James B. Scott; sister: Patricia Eaton and husband Frank; three grandchildren: Byron (Alex) Scott, Ma'Naijha Scott, and Malik Scott along with numerous nieces and nephews and cousins.
She was preceded in death by her parents; brothers: Gerald M. Scott Jr. and Ronald McCleskey.
Memorial services will be help at 2:00 pm, Saturday, February 20, 2021 at Acres West Funeral Chapel. Arrangements are entrusted to Acres West Funeral Chapel and condolences to the family may be sent online at acreswestfuneral.com.

It is hard to believe that she has been gone 3 years now. She was a good friend and I think about her often and I miss getting to talk to her. Either by phone or a text message. She was one of the first people that made me feel welcome at MCH. I will always remember that.

My heart is broken. I will always remember Paula. We started Medical Center Hospital together. I was the one that had the employee number one number ahead of yours. Whenever I was locked out of my computer you were the one that fixed me. Lori and Pat I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m looking forward to seeing her on my journey home. God Bless.

Paula could be kind and she could be firm. I never heard her say, "I don't know" or "I can't help." She was always willing to help or jump in and help you figure things out. She was a very intelligent woman. I enjoyed her laugh and her cruise ship stories. She was very passionate about her work and play. She was truly an asset to our team and will be greatly missed.

My friend I am going to miss you so much! Joking around about our grandchildren and of course seeing who had better bragging rights! Or funny stories. Every time we talked on the phone was the absolute best part of my day.
The Monday after you beat me to Heaven I sat and stared at two emails from you. What am I going to do without you to talk to?
I hope in Heaven you have Facebook so you can see posts of my grandson Flint...since you thought I wasn’t giving him enough Facebook time.
To your family I ask our Lord to bring them comfort during this sad time and I pray they keep you alive to your precious grandchildren with their memories....that way they become their memories also and you live forever.
Meet me at the river on the day I get to Heaven so I can see your beautiful smile and get a hug.
May our Lord bless and keep your family.
I miss you and I love you!!❤

I write in loving memory of the kind and light hearted person Paula was. She is sorely missed and I will forever cherish her spirit, dedication and teamwork. I know she is rejoicing with our Heavenly Father and for that, I am thankful.
