Marie Scott, 85, of Bridgman, formerly of Three Rivers, died Friday evening, April 5, 2013 in Bridgman Retirement Home. Marie was born July 2, 1927 in Coffeeville, Alabama to Mr. and Mrs. Erzo Mitchell, the oldest of nineteen children. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; her only daughter, Ruby Kiel; and one brother. Marie was an amazing woman.
She looked forward to spring because she could start working on her gardening and her flower beds. Autumn meant she could do her canning. Regardless of the time of year, there wasn’t anything she wouldn’t try. Marie was a faithful member of Bethel Baptist Church in Three Rivers, under the spiritual leadership of the late Reverend Dr. Bobby Joe Tolbert. She sang in the choir, served on the Pastor’s Aid Committee and served dutifully. Marie will be greatly missed by family and friends.
She is survived by two grandsons, Antonio Cain of Bronx, New York, Richard Cain of Santa Barbara, California; six great grandchildren; two great great granddaughters; seventeen siblings; and a host of nieces and nephews.
