MAYER, Scotti Serena

Sep. 12, 1940 - May 26, 2020

It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of the loving matriarch of our family. A beautiful, beloved, & truly exceptional woman who lived for her family & was renowned for the kindness and compassion she showed to all those she met. She was a devoted mother to her children Shashi Chauhan & William Miles Mayer, who predeceased her. She remained a loving mother to her daughter-in-law Karen Mayer, a proud & adoring Grandmother to Brittanie (Maxwell) Campbell, Branden (Emily Austin) Mayer, and Matthew Mayer as well as the most wonderful GreatGrandmother (GG) to the little lights of her life, Shea and Rowan Campbell. Scotti was born on Vancouver Island (in Duncan, BC) where she grew up before travelling, at the age of 12, around the world as an ambassador of goodwill for the Girl Guides of Canada. Her passion for travel never faded as she continued exploring throughout her life, travelling the globe with family & on her own, making friends and touching lives wherever she went. After a storied career working with at-risk youth & special needs children, she became a highly regarded & respected businesswoman who developed & operated a successful retail business with several outlets in the Vancouver area. Scotti thrived in her career & was adored by staff and customers alike. She was the most elegant and graceful woman whose youthful spirit endeared her to everyone who met her. Scotti did everything with love, kindness, & a good dash of humour, believed in education and gratitude, and had an immense appreciation for music & literature. She always aspired to see the best in everyone and was an inspiration in the way she lived her life. Scotti will be deeply missed by many, & while we are so very saddened that she is no longer with us, her uncompromising display of the goodness we are all capable of will live on in our best efforts to follow her incredible lead.
