Richard Winfield Scott

July 17, 1940 — August 15, 2018

Richard Winfield Scott, after a prolonged battle against cancer and Parkinson's Disease, entered the gates of Heaven on August 15, 2018. He was born July 17, 1940, in Alma, Georgia. Services will be held at 11:00 AM Saturday, August 18, 2018 at North Macon Presbyterian Church. The family will greet visitors one hour prior to the service. Richard is survived by his wife of 52 years, Linda Jordan Scott, his son Eric (Emily) and grandsons Cameron and Connor, his brothers Billy (Anne), Glover (Maurice), Harry, and sister Linda Vaughn, as well as many nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his parents, William and Evelyn Scott and siblings Phyllis Scott Turner, Margie Scott Taylor and Catherine Scott Crews.  Richard graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in Business. After service in the United States Air Force, Richard's life career was claims and services of insurance. He was employed by St. Paul Insurance Company. Richard and Linda are members of North Macon Presbyterian Church. While some of his friends referred to Richard as the "General", growing up his family called him "Stump". Once his mind was made up, he could not be moved! To his beloved wife, he is "Darling". Some would call him the "frustrated engineer". He loved projects, especially building projects and canoeing down the river with his son and playing tennis. Richard loved a good find as a collector of antique tools. He built a barn to house a "few" of his treasures. He could be found helping his neighbors with their building or yard projects. Give the man a chainsaw and he was off! Richard rarely met a stranger and loved being among his many friends and neighbors. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Homestead Hospice, 500 Osigian Dr., Warner Robins, GA 31088 or North Macon Presbyterian Church.Monroe County Memorial Chapel has charge of arrangements.
