Helen Louise Scott, of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, passed away peacefully on November 25, 2024. Helen was born in Mocksville, North Carolina to John Arthur and Beulah Wilson Scott, who preceded her in death. Helen's life was marked by her dedication to family and community. She was a beloved figure in Winston-Salem, where she spent much of her adult life as the Sunday School Superintendent at Shiloh Baptist Church before transferring to United Cornerstone Missionary Baptist Church, serving as Deaconess, and President of the Decorating Committee for the Church. Helen was a member of various clubs and organizations. Helen spent her adult life working in alterations and retired from the JCPenney Department store.
Her commitment to helping others was evident in her numerous volunteer efforts and her active participation on the Board of Sunnyside Ministries. Helen's kindness and compassion touched the lives of many, leaving a lasting impact on all who knew her.
Helen was a devoted mother and grandmother, whose family was the center of her world. She was preceded in death by her sister, Shirley Ann Scott; her brothers, Ulysses, Jack, Robert, Vernon, and Neal Scott; her daughters, Barbara Jean Carson Mason and Dorothy Jane Carson; her grandson, Michael Todd Chunn; and her granddaughter, Dr. Jasmine LaDonna Chunn.
She is survived in death by her loving children, her daughters, Jacqueline (Arthur) Carson Bond, Sally Carson, and Tina (Maurice) Price; her sons, William Carson and Michael David Carson; her brothers, Clyde (Gladys) Scott, Dwight (Yessenia) Scott, and John (Martha) Scott; her Goddaughter, Dale Brooks; a host of grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, and nephews, and close friends as well as special friends at Sunnyside Ministry, who will continue to honor her legacy of love, service and kindness.
Her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren were her pride and joy, and she got on her knees and prayed for each one by name every morning. Known affectionately as "Mama and Grannie," she was a guiding light and a source of strength for her family, always offering encouragement with the words of our Lord and Savior. She lived the words that she taught.
Her memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who loved her.
