Frances Eleanor Taylor Scott

Frances Taylor Scott, 93, of Jasper, Georgia, passed away peacefully on December 8, 2025.

Frances lived a long and beautiful life filled with creativity, family, and deep joy. She loved sewing, dancing, painting, the mountains, and music—especially the songs of Alan Jackson, which always brought a smile to her face. She worked as a talented seamstress for the Sears Fabrication Center before starting her own successful drapery business, where her artistry touched countless homes and lives.

A graduate of Avondale High School, Frances later attended Georgia State University. Before starting her family, she worked for a time for an orthodontist. Her life changed forever the day she met her husband, Lee Scott, at a bus stop in Decatur, Georgia. They fell in love, married, and began a beautiful life together, raising four children—two boys and two girls.
