Judy D. Scott

Judy Dorothy Scott of Water Street, passed away peacefully on Friday, April 24, 2020 with her family by her side at Losier Hall, Miramichi N.B at the age of 71.  Judy had an outstanding life filled with generosity, kindness and love.

Judy dedicated her life to helping those around her most in need as evidenced by her remarkable strength and compassion towards others.  She worked as a volunteer ambulance attendant, providing a hint of what was to come as her career.  Her passion for her chosen career as a Registered Nurse was obvious until the day she retired. Once retired, she volunteered thousands of hours to those most vulnerable as  “The Dessert Lady” at the community kitchen and as a very active St. John Ambulance Therapy Dog Team member with her beloved dog Dreyfus.

Judy will be missed by her loving husband Tom Scott and her children Tony (Roxanne) of Pembroke, Ontario;  Andréa (Roger Girouard) of Dartmouth, N.S. and Cara (Shane Goguen) of Miramichi, N.B.   Judy was blessed to be surrounded with the love of her grandchildren Alex Girouard (Andréa and Roger),  Gregor Wilson (Cara), and Haley Speight (Connie) as well as her surviving siblings (John Grondin) of Fredericton, Ruth (McCleod) also of Fredericton, Sharon (Gerry) McCormick of Oakville Ontario as well as many nieces and nephews.

She was welcomed into Heaven by her parents Anthony and Dorothy Grondin, her daughter Connie Scott, and grandson Mitchell Speight, as well as her brothers Michael Grondin and Terry Grondin.

Judy will most certainly be remembered as an avid outdoors person enjoying duck and goose hunting, salmon fishing on the beautiful Miramichi River and camping.  She will be equally   remembered for those quiet moments filled with conversation while knitting, crocheting, cooking as well as her many sleepovers with her adored grandchildren.  Her family was a tight knit one because she made it a priority to be connected with her children at every opportunity.  Judy’s smile could light up any room and did she ever smile when she got the chance to dance and enjoy a good tune!  She remained active through walking and swimming her entire life.

The family would like to thank Dr. Arthur Losier and all of the staff at Losier Hall and Mount St. Joseph for making this journey as comfortable as possible.

Mass of Christian Burial was held at St. Michael's Basilica on Saturday August 29, 2020 at 2 pm with Father Dass and Father Creamer as Celebrants.  Music was provided by organist David Bunnell and Bagpiper Jennifer Maillet.  The hymns were "Amazing Grace", "Gentle Woman", "Peace is Flowing Like a River", "Be Not Afraid" and the recessional hymn was "Into Your Hands, Highland Catherdral".  The scripture readings and general intersessions were read by Veronique Arsenault.  A private interment was held at St. Michael's Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Alzheimer’s Society of Canada in her name.   Arrangements were entrusted to Adams Funeral Home Ltd., 140 King St., Miramichi, telephone (506) 773-3492 or messages of condolence may be sent online to www.adamsfh.ca
