Mrs. Jackie Scott, 74 of Henagar and formerly of Rainsville passed away peacefully at her home on Monday, May 31, 2021. Graveside services were held on Thursday, June 3, 2021 at Mountain View memory Gardens.
\nJackie taught elementary school for 25 years in DeKalb County, with most of those years enjoyed at Fyffe Elementary. She was also a member of Robertson\u2019s Chapel. Jackie deeply loved her family. She found tremendous satisfaction in making sure her family\u2019s lives were bettered through the time she invested and the gifts she found so much joy in giving. It was this same desire to give to others that motivated her desire to educate and influence children. Jackie would want her fellow teachers and former students to know she appreciated the opportunities to both teach and learn with them.
\nShe is survived by her husband of 52 years, Bill Scott; son, Roger (Emily) Scott; grandson, Joshua Scott; niece, Reda (Chris) Davis; great-niece, Chelsea (Josh) Blake; Layne Davis. She was preceded in death by her parents, Ray and Mae Davis; sister, Carol Angrisano.
\nIn lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the Rainsville Public Library.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
