We Remember

SCOTT, Marie Lillian
October 1, 1931 — August 24, 2018
It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Marie Lillian Scott. Born October 1, 1931 in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, she passed away August 24, 2018 at Cottonwoods, having suffered from Alzheimer’s. She is survived by her husband of 68 years Frederick Leonard Scott; her three children: Randy, Sandra and Patty; her 6 grandchildren; 7 great grandchildren and, of course her loving dog Jackie.
Marie will be remembered for her amazing sense of humor, baking and love of each and every holiday. She will truly be missed by us all, especially at Christmas. She was always up for a game of Rummy and loved golfing, bowling and her poker girls.
We would like to give thanks to the nurses and care aides at Cottonwoods.
At the family request there will be no funeral. A Celebration of Life with the family will be held at a later date.
If you wish to send a condolence, post photos or share a memory, please scroll down the page to the area called “Share Your Condolences.”
My thoughts are with the Scott family.
I am honoured to have known this kind, generous & fun-loving lady. I will always cherish my many ‘Marie’ memories especially her comment to the man who jokingly questioned women’s presence on the golf course! Oh Marie, you are missed! 💕

I have many fond memories of Marie…
For ten years, we played golf on Friday mornings followed by card games and lunch. Always lots of laughs and we looked forward to the cookies she shared with us. You will be missed ……

Dear Fred and “the kids”
Wayne and I are thinking of all of your family without the glue in your family of Marie. What a lot of memories we have of Marie. One special one is our mutual love of dogs. One day, I passed by Marie’s car and low and behold, her goofy spotted dog is sitting in the front seat, proud as can be. I took a picture, sent it to Marie…we had a couple laughs about that one.; certainly not one antic her shepherds would have dared!
Another great memory was drooping in unexpectedly on a Sunday afternoon with friends, just like in Saskatchewan and actually being welcome!
Marie was one of a kind…she will be missed.
With love,
Jorin and Wayne
Fred, Marie had to have been a special person in every ones heart that had the privilege to know her, she shared the spotlight even when Fred was arround. Marie was smart and no matter what Fred said we all knew she had the last say. We all loved Marie and knew the big jod she carried for 68 plus years, let’s give her a big hand. It was a life we admired while loving them both. You kids should be awfull proud of what you had and got to share.
Wayne
We always enjoyed meeting up and having a chat with Marie at the “mailbox” – inevitably she was accompanied by her much loved dog. Our condolences go to you, Fred, and your family.
