Betty Jean Bryan Scott was born on November 6, 1928 to Claude and Gertrude Bryan in Kansas City, Missouri. Betty was preceded in death by her three sisters Mary Lou Anderson, Nancy Ridenhour, Margie Lucas and her brother William Bryan, as well as her husband William E Scott.

She is survived in death by her son David E Scott, his wife is Sandra Scott, two grandchildren Peter E. Scott and Emily Yates Scott. As well as seven great-grandchildren, Kennedy Rose Scott, Madelyn Quinn Scott and Mason Alexander Scott, Landen Alexander Scott, Alexis Marie Dunlap, Adelaide Dunlap and Aidyn Dunlap. Betty is also survived by her sister Henrietta Burlison.

During WWII she worked at the Russell Stover plant in Kansas City, Mo. to help support her family, and R.L Polk, a publisher of business directories, in the 70's.

After her working years Betty was a very dedicated preacher's wife for the Sugar Creek Church of God, the Gladstone Church of God and the Newton First Church of God. She was always there smiling at her husband's side, Rev. William E. Scott, and always ready to make people smile with her wonderful cooking or a kind word. She was not only a wonderful grandmother to her grandchildren but to many of the children in her church's congregation.

Betty was a stern but incredibly loving mother, grandmother and woman who will be missed by many for many years to come. Her life was one of service to her family and loved ones. Memorial services will be held June 3, at 1 p.m. at the Gladstone Church of God. Rest in peace Betty Jean Scott, thank you for your life and love.
