Charlotte Pearson

Charlotte Ann Scott, age 81, of Colfax, formerly of Sheridan, passed away unexpectedly at her home on Monday afternoon, August 9, 2021. Born December 22, 1939 in Carroll County, Indiana, she was the daughter of the late Charles and Florence (Smith) Pearson.

She was a 1958 graduate of Delphi High School.

Charlotte worked for many companies throughout the years including Central Lab in Lafayette, Essex of Flora, and Target in Carmel as a floor worker.

She was a devoted Indiana Pacers and Purdue Boilermakers fan. She also enjoyed working on her many 4-H projects throughout the years.

Taking care of people was always first and foremost in Charlotte’s life, and her home is where she felt most comfortable to do so. She loved putting out a garden every year, but more importantly, cherished the time she got to spend with her husband while tending to it. She was a loving mother and grandmother, but also opened up her home as a foster mother for over a decade. Whenever anyone in the neighborhood was in need of a babysitter, Charlotte was there. She enjoyed crafts, knitting, crochet, and sewing, and when she had some time to herself, would make baby blankets, hats, and outfits for various hospitals.

Charlotte is survived by her son, Vince Scott (Dana) of Colfax; daughter, Carolee Scott Ingals (Dennis) of North Richland Hills, TX; 3 grandchildren, Jordan Leiter of Sheridan, Fallon Scott of Indianapolis, and Madison Scott of Fort Worth, TX; 2 great grandchildren, Kailee Barnette, and Ethan Scott; one great grandchild on the way; brother, Rob Pearson (Pat) of Fort Campbell, KY; sister, Trudy Chapman of Colorado Springs, CO; and several nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents; son, Terry Lynn Scott; brother, Barry Pearson; sister Diana Shockler; and by her husband Glenn David Scott on April 1, 2017. He and Charlotte were married in 1960.

Graveside services will be held at 1:00 PM on Saturday, August 21, 2021 at Boxley Cemetery in Boxley, Indiana. Reverend V.J. Stover will be officiating
