As one of the Greatest Generation, she understood the value of hard work and the sacrifice and honor of being an American. The faith she had in the Savior carried her through the many trials she faced in life. One grandson noted. "She walked in the footsteps of the Lord and never strayed." We will miss her and her example, but we know she is having a grand reunion with her eternal sweetheart Winton Scammon, plus many ancestors whose genealogy work she has done. She is survived by her children, Harold Scammon (Becky), Elise Reeves (Randy), Dana Tye (Doug), and 12 grandchildren, 24 great grandchildren, and 2 great great grandchildren. Preceded in death by her parents & siblings: Lysle, Marie, William, Marjorie, & Weymouth. Our mother lived her life with love, faith, courage, and strength. She faced death with those same qualities. We love and miss you mom, you have blessed us in so many ways! Internment in the City Cemetery, Columbus, Kansas
