Cynthia L. Scott, 68, passed away on Monday, April 17, 2023 in Garden
City, Kansas. She was the daughter of Freeman and Evelyn (Severin)
Scott, born on June 17, 1954 in St. Joseph, Missouri.
After earning her English degree in 1981 at Southwest Missouri State
University in Springfield, Missouri, Cindy moved to Garden City, Kansas
with her family in 1989. She had a passion and talent for writing.
Cindy worked as an Administrative Assistant for the State of Kansas
Social & Rehabilitation Services/Department for Children and
Families from 1989 until her retirement on September 15, 2014.
After her retirement, Cindy lived a quiet life and enjoyed her peace and
solitude. She spent her time reading books, listening to music, and
watching old movies. She loved animals and plants, often just enjoying
listening to the birds outside her window.
Cindy was kind hearted and caring. She was a very private person, but
when she got to know you, she was a good listener and loved having
conversations about anything and everything. She always appreciated
visits from close friends and they brightened her mood, especially when
they brought her favorite drink: A large Mocha Frappe. She loved Mexican
food, particularly some spicy salsa.
Survivors include her sister Julie (Scott) Gummelt of St. Joseph,
Missouri, three nieces Emily (Gummelt) Morrison of Independence,
Missouri, Bethany (Gummelt) Goettling of Independence, Missouri,
Stephanie Gummelt of St. Joseph, Missouri, one nephew, Russell Gummelt
of St. Joseph, Missouri and close friends Jessica Gomez and Lorie
Liechti.
She is preceded in death by her parents.
