I was saddened to hear Sunday that Mrs Scott had passed. I often saw her and Frank at church. I always enjoyed chatting with them.

Brandt, Mr. Frank & Clay, I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mother was one of the first women that I remember holding a publicly elected office, and I admired her so for that! I also remember her speaking when we went through such a horribly dividing time at FBC, and how much I admired her for what she said. I think my favorite memory was when I was looking for somewhere to sit because the row my mom was on was completely full. She said something like "I guess that means you're stuck with us", grabbed my hand, and led me down to sit with you guys. That day was the beginning of the "peach" joke, but it has always remained one of the sweetest memories I have of Ms. Bettye. I know there was a throng of witnesses in Heaven waiting to greet her. Speak of her often, remember her even more...it will keep her alive in your heart. Keeping you all in my prayers, especially in the coming days. LeAnn Hale Blevins

Betty was one of the sweetest ladies you could meet She always loved to tease my husband Don Douglas. He loved Betty. Especially when she would make him get well cards out of wallpaper. I always enjoyed cutting her hair when I was working. To Betty’s Family, we loved Betty and her family Linda Douglas

Betty recently attended the GHS class of 1949,70th reunion, even tho in poor health she made the effort and proudly attended. The forty- niners were blessed to have several bright and shining stars but none cast a brighter light than Betty. She was the first woman elected to the Gallatin city council and served several terms. A great classmate through these many years, an example of a loving wife, mother, grandmother and Christian lady. She will be missed, always a smile, never a complaint and a genuine concern for others.Shipmates through Howard, GHS, and Tenn Tech. Tom Neal , JR.
