Stacy Lynn (Erickson) Scott

Stacy L. (Erickson) Scott, 44 of Ardoch, North Dakota died Sunday, June 25, 2023, at Altru Hospital, Grand Forks, North Dakota.

Stacy was born on May 13, 1979, the daughter of Dale and Nancy Erickson in Grand Forks, North Dakota. She was raised and educated in Grand Forks, graduating from Central High School in 1997. Stacy received a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education in 2001 from UND.  During her first year of teaching, Stacy realized she had a special place in her heart for special education teaching.  She went back to UND to obtain her master’s degree in special education in 2003.  She would share about her days and would often be in tears because one of her students had learned a new skill.  She taught in West Fargo, Grand Forks and Minto.

While in college, she went on two missions’ trips with Campus Crusade for Christ.  She spent one summer in Estes Park, CO and another summer in Beijing, China.  She was always up for adventures, even if they made her parents nervous.

One of our favorite memories of Stacy in college was the weekly Bible studies she hosted with her friends in our basement.  We would love to sit upstairs and listen to them sing worship songs.  We were so blessed to see these young people on fire for the Lord.

Stacy enjoyed sewing (just like her maternal grandmother), baking and was known for baking the best homemade bread. She enjoyed the time spent with family and friends. But her true passion in life was her children and she loved each of them dearly.

Stacy is survived by her children, Eden, Braelyn, Nikolas, Asher, Charlotte and Maisie Scott; parents, Dale and Nancy Erickson of Nisswa, MN; siblings, Heidi (Len) Philpot, Jeffrey (Kayla) Erickson and Holly (Justin) Swanson all of Grand Forks, ND; nieces and nephews, Kacy, Bryce and Brock Philpot, Chloe and Jarrett Erickson, Alyssa Erickson, Carston, Lauren, Addison and Brinna Swanson; aunts and uncles, Gail Erickson of Bismarck, ND; Gale (Howard) Corbett of Winnipeg, MB and David (Jan) Erickson of Grand Forks, ND.

Stacy was preceded in death by her two brothers, Kevin and Kyle Erickson, paternal grandparents, Lennart and Myrtle Erickson, maternal grandparents, Russ and Judy Erickson, uncle, Myles Erickson and cousin, Caitlin Erickson.

Visitation will be held from 10:00 - 11:00 a.m. Friday, June 30, 2023, at Hope Church, Grand Forks, North Dakota. Funeral Service will be held at 11:00 a.m. Friday, June 30, 2023, at Hope Church, Grand Forks, North Dakota.
