He was born August 13, 1928, at Scotland, Arkansas, the son of Jim and Ruby Louder Scott. He and Louise Thomas were married July 20, 1957 at Pleasant Valley Missionary Baptist Church.

Ike was a loving husband for 65 years, a devoted father, a devoted Christian, and a devoted son-in-law to Louise's parents. His in-laws loved him like their own. He was a faithful member of Magnet Cove Missionary Baptist Church.

His family moved from the Ozarks in 1941. His very first job at age 13 was working for Mr. Carl Wilcox as an ice boy delivering ice in the local area. He cherished those memories.
