Carolyn K. Scott Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Carolyn K. (Norton) Scott, a woman of faith and the heart of her family, passed away peacefully at the age of 72, on Saturday, April 04, 2020. She was born in Fonde, Kentucky May 17, 1947 to Roy and Mary (Hodge) Norton. Carolyn began her career at Metro Machine Industrial Laundry in 1974. In 1985, she transferred to Metro Machine Works, starting out on the burr bench and eventually advanced to a Level 3 Fluorescent Penetrant Inspector. In a male dominated field, she was one of just a few women in the United States to achieve a Level 3 Certification. Her co-workers affectionately referred to her as Special K. She retired in 2018 at the age of 70 after 44 years of service to the company. Family came first and foremost to Carolyn. She was a loving Mother and Grandmother, a devoted Sister and Aunt. She enjoyed working in her flower gardens, and rising early to listen for the first bird to break the morning silence with song to welcome in the new day. Sunset was a special time for her too, and watching fireflies light up the dark night gave her a quiet sense of peace. Carolyn enjoyed traveling with her family. For vacation she would tell her boys to pack their suitcases and then say "Let's get lost!" and with no destination in mind Carolyn, Rod and Chris explored the American West. In later years, she and her sister Marilyn often visited the Amish community in Holmes County, Ohio. She was preceded in death by her parents Roy Charles and Mary Madelyn (Hodge) Norton. Carolyn is survived by her sons Rodney Scott Jr. And Christopher Scott. Three grandsons, Alex (Asjia) Heady, Michael Scott and Matthew Scott. One great Grandson, Bray Heady. One sister, Marilyn Norton Nesler. One nephew, William Nesler Jr. One great nephew, Gunner Nesler. And Mango, her African Grey parrot. The family truly regrets that due to the Coronavirus, and CDC regulations, the funeral visitation must be limited in attendance. There will be a small, immediate family visitation on Wednesday, April 08 at 12 noon at Bobcean Funeral Home in Flat Rock followed by burial at 1:00PM at the Huron Valley Cemetery, 27009 Inkster Road, Flat Rock. If anyone should like to pay their final respects they may come to the cemetery at 1:00pm, but we ask that you remain in your vehicle.
