Traverse City — Kathleen Marie Cannon-Scott, 58, of Clare, passed away on Saturday, July 19, 2025.
Kathy was born on April 6, 1967, in Riverview, Michigan, to Edward William and Elizabeth Ann Cannon.
Kathy married Brent Scott, and together they made their home on Crooked Lake in Clare County. They shared a love of nature and the joy of raising their two beloved dogs, Gizmo and Toke. Kathy was an active member of the VFW and proudly participated in local events alongside her husband. One of her greatest joys was riding on the Harley with Brent, exploring Michigan on both short getaways and long scenic trips.
Kathy is survived by her loving husband, Brent Scott; her son, Jakob (Katie) Dunham of Kalkaska; brothers William (Mary) Cannon and Thomas Cannon, both of Traverse City; and grandchildren Alizabeth "Lizzy," Atara Rayne, and Kairi Ann. She is also survived by nephews Blake (Theresa) Cannon and Andrew Cannon. Kathy was preceded in death by her parents Edward William and Elizabeth Ann Cannon, and nephew Patrick Cannon. Kathy is also remembered by her step-grandmother, Kathleen "Nancy" Ann Blair (Rick), along with many extended family members and dear friends.
