ST. CLAIRSVILLE — A memorial party with live music, food vendors and games will take place at 4 p.m. Saturday to celebrate the life of Sunni Rae Scott, the late owner of Buy, Sell, Trade in Flushing who died last November as a result of an automobile accident.

“She didn’t want a funeral or services or anything like that. We had her cremated,” Sunni Rae’s son Jesse Scott said. “So, I feel like this is really important for everybody who knew and loved her to be able to get a little bit of closure after her passing.”

The memorial celebration will be located at the St. Clairsville Amphitheater by the high school football field.

John Nowak, Adrian Niles, Left Hand Hymns, Brimstone Coven and Ironflame all will perform at the party. The celebration will conclude when the performances are over, probably around 10 or 11 p.m., Jesse said.

The celebration will also have adult games, a playground, is kid-friendly and has a bring your own beer policy. Vendors providing food are IG’s Pigs BBQ and So Nuts 4 Donuts.

Jesse described Sunni Rae as a pillar of the community in Flushing.

Sunni Rae died due to injuries she sustained in a head-on collision on Ohio 331 on Nov. 14. Scott suffered organ damage and internal bleeding as a result of the crash. Emergency personnel first transported her to the WVU Medicine Wheeling Hospital after the accident for emergency surgery, and a medical helicopter later transported her to WVU Medicine’s J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown, West Virginia, where she had more surgeries, according to a report published in November.

Sunni Rae ultimately died from these injuries on Nov. 22, just three weeks after her 49th birthday and two months before her first grandchild was born.

“She was the type of person who left a big impression on you, even if you only met her once,” Jesse said. “While everything that happened was incredibly tragic, I would hope that everyone can remember the good times they had with her, how she would go far out of her way to help someone in need and how she could always put a smile on anyone’s face.”
