Harriett Scott Obituary

Harriette Corrine Greedy was born during a tornado on Aug. 4, 1923 to Floyd and Marguerite Greedy at their farm home east of Sidney. She loved growing up around the Greedy families with her three brothers, cousins, aunts and uncles surrounding her.
On Jan. 18, 1944, Harriette married Lt. Dale Scott whom she had met while teaching country school in Walnut Township. In 1945, he and Harriette moved to a farm north of Farragut. After Dale's death in 1986, Harriette continued to enjoy farm life until 2001 when she left the farm to move to Huxley, Iowa near her son Russell. Later, she moved to South Dakota to be close to her daughter Linda.
Harriette C. Scott died peacefully at Bethany Lutheran Home on Sunday, May 27, 2012.
Harriette lived a full and active life. She was involved in her children's school activities, 4-H clubs, The Happy Thought Club, O.N.O. and Farragut Community Club. She and Dale were active members of the Farragut United Methodist Church. She enjoyed being a part of the "Dancing Grannies," and shared her piano playing with all who would listen and sing along.
She and Dale discovered the fun of golfing in 1965. From then on, they spent many hours on the Fremont County Golf Course with their friends. Later, they enjoyed traveling around the country and playing different golf courses along the way.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Marguerite and Floyd Greedy; her husband Dale E. Scott; parents-in-law, Harvey and Cora Scott; three brothers, Richard, Delbert and David Greedy; two brothers-in-law and their wives, Paul and Ruth Scott and Ward and Nelva Scott.
The loved ones who survive her are her children, Donna Kuehn of Minneapolis, Linda Joyslin and her husband James of Harrisburg, S.D., Russell Scott and his wife Gail of Cambridge, Iowa; eight grandchildren, Cori, Christopher and Lindsay Keuhn, Kathryn Scott and Marc, Andrew Scott, Sara Garry and Nick, Elizabeth Lynch and Doug and David Joyslin and Lisa; three sisters-in-law, Mildred, Phyllis and Bette Greedy.
Harriette loved to play with her great grandchildren. A special thank you to Preston and Reagan Scott and Ashlyn, Cooper and Hadley Garry for the joy they brought her. Harriette had many nieces and nephews whom she dearly loved. She left them with fond memories of all the above special people.
Funeral services were held at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, June 1, 2012 at the United Methodist Church in Farragut, with Pastor Fred Bryson officiating.
Burial was in the Farragut Cemetery. Visitation with the family present was held from 6 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, May 31 at Kirsch Funeral Chapel in Shenandoah.
A memorial fund is being established in Harriette's name.
