The Reverend Doctor Molly Davis Scott met our Lord our Savior on December 16, 2020.
Molly was the only child of unique parents who raised her in the oil fields of Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi before settling in Houston, Texas. Her greatest loves were serving her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, loving her husband the Reverend Doctor James Britton Scott, watching the development of her daughters and their families, and encouraging pastors and congregations in ministry.
Molly is preceded in death by her mother Mary Ella Shirey Davis of Magnolia, AR and her father D.K. (Dewey) Davis of Mount Holly AR. She is survived by her husband the Reverend Dr. James B. Scott originally from Manitoba, Canada who currently resides in Tulsa, OK; her two daughters who live in Fort Worth, TX: Kathryn Scott and Elizabeth Jenswold and her husband Jonathan and their daughter Katherine; from Dallas: her step-daughters Katherine Stamper and her son Payton, and Brenda Scott Hayley (who also precedes her in death). She is also survived by her aunt Janie Foreman of Okemah, OK and brother and sister-in-law Dennis and Iris Scott of Manitoba, Canada.
Molly was an ordained elder of The United Methodist Church, a doctoral graduate of Fuller Theological Seminary, Perkins School of Theology for master’s degree, Southern Methodist University for bachelor’s degree and Bellaire High School in Houston, TX. She received numerous awards and recognition throughout her life including the prestigious Lifetime Award of Innovative Development Service at World Vision, the lifetime award for development from E.D.M. She was the first woman in Christian fundraising at World Vision, one of the first women to have been bestowed a ministry degree at Perkins, the first woman to receive a Doctor of Ministry degree at Fuller and with her husband Jim, were the first clergy couple to graduate with those honors together.
