Obituary For Oden Eugene Scott
Oden Eugene Scott, 46, of Harrisburg, PA, transitioned from this life on February 24, 2025. He was born in Harrisburg, PA, to Darnella Rochelle Gibson and Charles Reginald Scott Jr. He was raised in the heart of Harrisburg, where he developed a strong sense of community and passion for helping others.
Eugene, a proud graduate of West Chester High School, continued his education at West Chester Area Community College, where he earned his culinary degree. He further pursued online studies in business administration at Strayer University. Eugene's true calling, however, was working with individuals with special needs and assisting teenagers in group home facilities. His genuine care and ability to connect with the younger generation made him a beacon of hope and guidance for many. He dedicated countless hours to various organizations in this field, always striving to make a difference.
Known affectionately as "Jizz," Eugene had a zest for life that extended beyond his work. His love for his children was unwavering. It was the foundation of his life, a constant source of strength and motivation. His deep love for music was evident in his prolific songwriting and poetry, each piece infused with spiritual meaning and personal reflection. His creations invited others to journey through his experiences and emotions, offering a unique window into his soul. Above all, Eugene cherished his time with family, especially cooking and sharing stories with loved ones. Those moments brought him immense joy and fulfillment.
Eugene was preceded in death by his father, Charles Reginald Scott, Jr.; his maternal grandfather, Edgar Gibson and his paternal grandfather, Charles Reginald Scott, Sr.
He is survived by his mother, Darnella Rochelle Gibson; his maternal grandmother, Barbra Ann Brice; his paternal grandmother, Roberta Scott; his children, Jada Marie Scott and Jaylen Nasir Scott; his granddaughter, Jaliyah Marie Ramos; his siblings, Katrina L. Scott, Brandy M. Sunshine, Tylesha C. Yates, Ricketta R. Meade, and Tieara Meade; his aunts and uncles, Gary Gibson Sr., Susan L. Gibson, Scott Gibson, and Karen Gibson; his best friend, Naji Greene; 17 nieces and nephews; and a host of family and friends who will miss him dearly.

My son π is a man of dignity, he loved life, he adored his family, we miss his teachable ways, he taught us all so much about love and unity, peace, I miss him standing in my kitchen, cooking his spicy foods that he loved so much, just the sound of his voice saying mom you okay, I say yes , he say back you sure, I miss hearing him say, what you think about that after telling me about a good or bad day he was having. Watching him groom his hair to perfection., this is gut wrecking painful to me, his sisters and all who really knew my son. GOD KNOW my son????? I'll say no more. GOD know.....Rest Easy my handsome son. Let God do his work to deliver our peace and closure. I love you son with every being of my soul.

To The Family, I'm sending first my Love to you all! I've got a Chance to meet Oden I want to say twice and it he was funny and a great Spirit to be around. I know it hard to see a love one transition, but I truly believe to be absent from the body is to present with the Lord. May the Family be intentional with getting closer to with each other and more with the Lord ππΎπ«ΆπΏ. Love you all. Isaiah 40:31 Cousin JR
