Everett Randolph Scott left his earthly home on May 14, 2022. "Mungo" as he was affectionately known was born on June 2, 1942, to the late Sadie Berry Scott. He was the second youngest of eight children.

Mungo attended Banneker Elementary School in St. Louis, VA. At an early age, Mungo started working with horses as an exercise boy and groomer. He worked for numerous owners and trainers at the Training Track. They were Fred Fox, Bobby Jeffery, Sid Waters, Tommy Field, Jack Skinner and Jim Wiley. He traveled to numerous tracks, but he always came back to the training center in St. Louis.

He was working for Jim Wiley when his health began to decline. It was Jim Wiley who gave him his nickname Mungo. Jim owned a horse with the same name and had asked Everett to take care of that horse. So, he decided to call him Mungo also.

When Mungo wasn't working, he loved to hang out with his friends at the track and to go to dances. Mungo left the Training Center and moved to Leesburg with his sister Elise. He would still go back to St. Louis to the training track to see his buddies, but most of them were gone. He made new buddies near where he lived. They were George and Irvin Lansdown, Boogie, Mr. Luke, Mike Marshall, Donnie Allor, Buff, Ronnie, Robert, Gilbert, Charity, Franklin, Mrs. Clair and Rev. Barbara Wilson. He really enjoyed talking and hanging out with his new friends. He was really excited when Doug would come by with his specialty dishes of food and hang out with him. He would tell them in the house that they better not touch his food.

Mungo's favorite pastime was playing Solitaire, watching westerns, horse races, especially the main three big ones – The Kentucky Derby, The Preakness and The Belmont Stakes, wrestling and football. His favorite football team was the New Orleans Saints. He also loved listening to his music – oldies, jazz, blues and gospel. He loved to watch cartoons when his great-great nephew Little Robert came to visit. They would watch "Alley Cat" videos. Little Robert was his buddy, whatever he wanted to do Mungo would do it with him even if he was tired.

Mungo was preceded in death by his mother, Sadie Berry Scott; four brothers, Melvin, Landon, Eddie and Herbert aka Denny Scott; two sisters, Elise Scott-Allen and Joyce Scott.

Everett Randolph "Mungo" Scott leaves to cherish his memories, sister Shirley Brooks, cousins Richard "Dickie" and Vanessa Scott who were very special to him. He held a special place in his heart for two of his nieces, Darlene NeNe Scott and Shirley Fatty Scott; nephew Robert Scott and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, relatives and friends.
