I was checking my mom's obituary page and saw where my former supervisor, Mrs. Scott had left a sweet message. Mrs. Scott was the kindest, sweetest lady I ever knew. Her sweet voice would calm like Jesus calmed the storm. Praise God for your presence in my life. Such a blessing.

She went about quietly doing those tasks assigned by God, never asking for recognition nor praise. Mrs. Scott was a very special person indeed. She will be missed but not forgotten. To the family, take solace in the fact that her good deeds will be her legacy. I thank God for the time He allowed us to share her presence. I will keep you in my prayers.

Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates. ~Proverbs 31:30-31
Pauline, job well done, job well done. We all will miss you.

To Mr.Floyd, Earl, Darryl and Family,
I have known Mrs. Pauline and you all since a little girl growing up in Roebuck. Mrs. Pauline was a wonderful example of: a woman of God, wife, working mother ( to two impeccable sons), neighbor, and community member. Earth's loss is Heaven's gain. We all can take comfort in knowing that to be absent from the body means Mrs. Pauline is present with the Lord. Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal, love each other as she has taught you and watch how God graces you to get through this time of sorrow. God Bless You All!

I want to give you my dearest expression of sympathy. Although I only met Mrs. Scott this year, within this short period of time she played an instrumental part of my life. I thank her for the role she played with inviting me to be a presenter at the District Four Missionary Workshop in April. Mrs. Scott was indeed one of God's special angels!
