Reggy Scott

Aug. 21,1968 – April 14, 2025

Reggy Scott, 56, passed away Monday, April 14, 2025, in Tulsa. Reggy was born in Seiling, Oklahoma, on Aug. 21,1968, the son of Cherry M. and Janetta (Moore) Scott.

He is survived by his mother; Janetta Scott of Eufaula; children Taylor and Lonnie Ford of Hockley, Texas; Abby Scott of Eufaula, Oklahoma; Palmer Scott of Edmond, Oklahoma and Sunny Baldridge, the children’s mother.

He is also survived by his precious grandchildren, Lucas, Leighton and Everett Davis. Sister, Lori Scott Dreiling, and husband Duane of Carl Junction, Mo., his uncle Bill Moore and wife, Dee of Oklahoma City, Okla.; Aunt Joyce and husband, Orville of Tecumseh; uncle Melford Scott and wife, Margaret of Chickasha, Okla. Cousins, Gayle Bodwell; Mike and Greg Muller; Kirk and Lee Ann Washburn; Audie and Cathy Carmen; Jan and Mark Wiley; Jimmy, Donnie and Ronne Scott.

He is preceded in death by his father, Cherry Scott, and grandparents, Mitchell and Mary Moore, and Mel and Arie Scott.

Reggy began his schooling in Del City and graduated from Del City High School in 1986 where he was active in everything sports.

In 1990 he graduated from Southwestern Oklahoma State University with a degree in Business Communication.

He spent most of his career in car dealerships across the state and was currently employed at Allstar and Honda in Muskogee.

Reggy loved his job and had a good working relationship with his employees and their families.

He was a kind person and will be sorely missed by all his friends and family.

He loved to cook, so instead of a regular service, his children wanted to have a hamburger and hot dog cookout at the Sabbath Place, the family’s home on the lake at 4 p.m., April 16.

He would want it to be a happy time. All family and friends are invited. He will be interred in Moore Cemetery with arrangements by Hunn, Black & Merritt Funeral Home & Crematory in Eufaula.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Stidham Baptist Church, 113487 S 4110 Rd, Eufaula, OK 74432.
