Joe Freddie Scott was born on February 17,  1956 to the union of Robert Scott and Louise Hughes Bailey in Decatur, Alabama.  He departed  this life on July 22, 2019 at his residence in Decatur, Alabama

Joe received his formal education from Lakeside High and Austin High Schools located in Decatur, AL. He later served in the U.S. Navy.

He was employed at Kohler where he worked until he became ill. He was highly loved and respected. He lived his life to the fullest and touched so many people while he was here. He never met a stranger and always kept everyone laughing. He enjoyed working on appliances, cars, fishing, grilling, cooking, listening to music and visiting his family.

During his battle with lung cancer he said he was trusting and believing God. His faith and strength remained strong until the end.

Joe was baptized and received the Holy Ghost at the Pentecostal House of Prayer by the late Bishop A. C. Strong in 1981.
