Cynthia Scott Obituary

Cynthia H. (Hall) Scott

August 31, 1943 - September 24, 2025

Cynthia H. (Hall) Scott of Rock Island, Illinois, passed away on September 24, 2025, surrounded by family at her home.

Per her wishes, cremation rites will be accorded. Visitation will be held Tuesday, September 30, 2025, from 1 to 2 p.m., and a memorial service will follow at Wheelan-Pressly Funeral Home and Crematory, Rock Island. A private family dinner will be held at a later date.

Cindi was the beloved daughter born on August 31, 1943, in Moline, Illinois, to Robert A. Hall and Helen L. (Blaser) Hall. She was raised along with her three brothers in a home surrounded by love, happiness, hard work and a dedication to family. Cindi attended Moline High School and Blackhawk College and began a professional career as an executive secretary at the Rock Island Arsenal. Cindi retired after 32 years of service.

She married Jerry L. Scott on March 26, 1966, and together shared three children: Sonja, Eric and Stephanie. Cindi deeply valued her role as a daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. Her most treasured moments were with the people she loved and cherished the most. Cindi enjoyed every holiday, birthday, sporting event, and celebration. Family was always her utmost priority, and she was known to be the most selfless person who always dedicated herself to helping others and uplifting others in their time of need.

Cindi was an active member of her community and gave countless hours to the Rock Island School District as a member of the PTA, Home Room Mother, Rock Island Softball League, American Heart Association, and other various organizations.

She valued her close-knit group of friends known as the "Lunch Bunch," cooking and baking for her family and friends, gardening, crocheting, and curling up with a good book or a great Hallmark movie.

Those left to cherish her memory include her daughters, Sonja Meraz and Stephanie Voss; grandchildren, Erica, Marissa, Alexa, Hadley, and Hunter; great-grandchildren, Lorenzzo and Aria, and one on the way; brother, Douglas Hall; sister-in-law, Susan Peck; several special nieces and nephews.

Cindi was preceded in death by her parents; son, Eric Scott; brothers, Robert and Bruce Hall; sisters-in-law, Kathy Hall and Connie Hall; and son-in-law, Matthew Voss.
