Mrs. Genevieve Scott (Hammerer) beloved wife of John (Jack) passed away peacefully on July 3, 2021 at the Davidson Health Center at the age of 85.
Jenny was born in Humboldt on July 11, 1935 to parents Eugene and Emma Hammerer. She was raised on a farm north/west of Carmel, along with her 2 brothers: Donald and Eugene Jr. and sister Deanna.
After she finished school, she applied for a job at the Davidson Hotel and off she moved to Davidson.
Jenny spent some time in BC with a friend picking strawberries. She met Jack while working in Davidson and they married on April 25, 1958.
Jenny was a fulltime homemaker and together they raised 3 children: Wade, Tammy and Robert. Unfortunately, Robert passed away in 1972.
Jenny was an active community member. She belonged to the Kinettes, was a leader in the 4-H Club and was very involved in the Davidson Agriculture Society. Her love was horticulture.
In 1977, Jenny was hired as a page at the Davidson Public Library. She worked with Myrtle Matchett until Myrtle passed away in 1978. Jenny then took on the role as head librarian and worked with Janet
Lloyd. Jenny loved working in the library. She was a passionate reader and loved visiting with all the patrons. Jenny and Janet were very dedicated to their work at the library, decorating it up for every season.
Jenny loved crafting. She was noted for all the dough dollies in Davidson and area. She also started oil painting. She painted on everything imaginable from canvas to eggs to rocks. Soon woodcarving caught her attention. Nothing stopped Jenny from
trying something new. Her birds and animal carvings won a couple awards at some of the shows in Saskatoon. She even convinced her friend Eileen McRae to join her in the basement to carve. You could always find the two of them carving, playing cards, painting their carving or just having coffee.
While doing all her crafts, she was also busy with her beautiful yard full of colourful flowers and a bountiful garden. Nothing stopped her, not even as her mobility got worse.
Her love was visiting and sharing a coffee with all her close friends. There was always time for a visit. She looked forward to the holidays when the whole family would appear. We all squeezed in the house
some place as the family grew and grandchildren and great grandchildren appeared.
Jenny is predeceased by her parents: Eugene and Emma Hammerer; son Robert; brother Eugene Jr.; grandson Aaron; sisters-in-law Elsie Scott, Margaret McPherson, and Elaine Scott; brothers-in-law: Bernie Faucon, Gordon Scott and Lloyd McPherson.
She leaves to cherish her memory: her husband John (Jack). Son Wade (Susan) and their children Monica (Farren) and John (Yvette) and great grandson Owen. Daughter Tammy (Wesley) and their children: Deidre (Tyson), Michael and Marisha and great grandchildren :Kyla, Keastyn and Brynnlee.
She is survived by her brother: Donald (Lorayne) Hammerer; sister: Deanna Faucon; brother-in-law: Dale Scott; and many nieces and nephews.
We will miss her beautiful smile and wonderful laugh.
The family would like to extend our deepest gratitude to the staff at the Davidson Health Center for their loving and compassionate care during mom’s last year.
