Margaret (Peggy) Emily Scott, 92, a native of Jacksonville, died Sunday, September 4 after a brief illness. She graduated from Stetson University and Southeastern Bible College and was a missionary in Ghana, West Africa for 32 years. Over the years she held various positions in Ghana including editor of the church press, Sunday school coordinator, and nurse's assistant at a maternity clinic. She was much loved by her family here, and by her church family in Africa where, over the years, many babies were named for her. She is survived by her brother, William Winfield Scott of Atlantic Beach and Tifton, GA and his wife Sarah, many nieces and nephews, and her beloved Ghanian friend Janet. Pallbearers: Charles M. Baldwin, Benjamin Correll, Scott Correll, and Jeffery Thompson "She was so full of wisdom and so fortunate to have lived a life full of what really matters" Christina Baldwin Funeral services will be held at 11:00 am on Friday, September 9, 2016 at Hickory Grove Baptist Church, 310 S.
