Connie Sue Scarbrough

Connie Sue Scarbrough, 79, of San Angelo, Texas, passed away on November 12, 2026, leaving behind a family who loved her more than words can say.

Born April 4, 1947, in Covington, Kentucky, to Robert Allen Driskell Sr. and Jean Kathleen (Allshouse) Driskell. She moved to Texas with her family as a child and attended Central High School in San Angelo.

She later met the love of her life, James Alton “Jim” Scarbrough. They married on July 11, 1965, and went on to build a life together centered around their three boys - Jimmy, Brian, and Michael

If there was one thing everyone knew about Connie, it was that family came first. She loved simply being together. Playing games, watching movies, laughing, visiting, and especially playing poker were some of her favorite ways to spend time with the people she loved.

Connie knew how to make an entrance. She was gorgeous and had a style that was completely her own. She loved unique jewelry, beautiful clothes, shoes, and handbags, and she was never interested in blending into the crowd.

She is survived by her sons, Brian Scarbrough and his wife, Diana, and Michael Scarbrough; sisters Donna Coleman, Joyce Whitsell, Peggy Driskell-Ronayne and her husband, Tony, and Debbie Menchaca and her husband, Buddy; along with the many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends who were lucky enough to love her.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Jim Scarbrough; her son, Jimmy Scarbrough; her parents, Robert Allen Driskell Sr. and Jean Kathleen (Allshouse) Driskell and her brothers, Robert Driskell Jr. and Jack Driskell.

Connie will be remembered for her beauty, her individuality, her sense of humor, and above all, her fierce love for her family. She was deeply loved and she will be deeply missed.

A private celebration of life will be held by Connie’s family in her honor.
