Aaron V. Scott

Aaron Valentino Scott, born March 13, 1946, to Ed and Florida Scott in Memphis, Tennessee, passed away on February 25, 2025, at the age of 78. He would be described by many as “One who took care of others,” and his children would say that he was an excellent provider who loved to spoil them and would proudly say “They never wanted for anything.”

In 1969, Aaron became a resident of Saginaw, Michigan, and after 37 years of service, retired from General Motors. He enjoyed spending his time watching crime shows, HGTV Dream Home/Buy It or List It, listening to music, and hanging with his friends. He was a collector of tools and things that were important to him but not others. Aaron enjoyed building things around the house and would always be seen with his keys hanging from his pocket like a high school janitor.

Our beloved husband, father, and grandfather, leaves to cherish his memory his wife, Earline Parks Scott; daughters, Rose Scott, Memphis, Tennessee, Marvinna Scott, Arizona, Maryellen Scott, Tammie (Ricky) Ball-Davis, Theresa Ball, Veonica (Rico) Scott; sons, Letavis Scott Sr. and Aaron (Neema) Hale Scott; stepchildren, Connie, Earline, and China Parks, Lisa, Rosetta, and Wallace Ferguson; twenty-four grandchildren; forty-three great-grandchildren; six great-great-grandchildren; two brothers, Omar Muhammad (Samantha) Baruti (formerly known as Eddie Scott Jr.), and Angelo (Doris) Scott, both of Memphis, Tennessee; godson, Tony Vaughn; and special friends, Paul Currington and Rosie Ferguson.

Aaron was preceded his death by his parents, Ed and Florida Scott; daughter, Antione Scott; grandchildren, Jor’Danche Scott, Kristopher Scott, Joseph Ball Sr.; great-grandson, Ashton Scott; sisters, Essie, Dorothy, Rosie Lee, Verlina and Odessa Scott; brothers, Roosevelt, Don Nicholas, and Andrew Scott; best friends, Terry Park and Keith Brown.
