Sedalia Scranton Obituary

Sedalia Luther Ellen Scranton was born December 4, 1945 to Thelma Pearl Hines in Knoxville, Tennessee. She was a devoted and loving mother who took care of her family and others as well. Sedalia worked for Palm Beach Industries and Levis Strauss before having a career in nursing. She finally retired from K-Trans (presently KAT ).

Ultimately resulting in her deciding to stop the dialysis treatment on February 9, 2018. It would be days later, she would depart this life and enter her eternal resting place with our Lord and Savior on February 14, 2018.

Preceded in death by her infant son, Ronald Scranton; mother., Thelma Matthews; sister, Shirley Hines; grandparents, Sedalia and Isaac Deadrick; niece, Keyawna Bingham.
