OBIT: FRANKLIN DELANO SCOTT (August 19, 1945 — February 1, 2025)

Franklin Delano Scott, a steadfast spirit and private soul, was born on August 19, 1945, in Waco, Texas. His journey through life came to a tranquil close on February 1, 2025, in the town where he began.

Franklin’s life was marked by a profound sense of duty, evidenced by his service in the U.S. Army. He embraced the call of service with quiet dignity, embodying the values of honor and dedication. Those who were fortunate to know him glimpsed the depths of his character, often revealed in the understated moments: a shared smile, a thoughtful gesture, or the gentle presence he offered.

Though very private, Franklin’s spirit left an indelible mark on the fabric of his community—a whisper of strength and sincerity in every encounter. His commitment to a life filled with integrity and humility was as steadfast as it was inspiring, serving as a quiet beacon for those around him.

As we gather to honor his memory, we invite family and friends to a graveside service at Rosemound Cemetery in Waco, Texas, on March 17, 2025, beginning at noon. Here, amidst the familiar grounds of his beloved town, we will celebrate a life well-lived, one that reminded us of the beauty found in simplicity and the power of being true to oneself.

Franklin Delano Scott leaves behind a legacy rich respect within the hearts of those he touched, and though he cherished his privacy, his spirit will forever linger, enveloping us in warmth and solace as we remember him.
