NEW GLASGOW – James Stanton “Jim” Scott, 84, New Glasgow, passed away Saturday, March 18, 2017 in the Aberdeen Hospital, New Glasgow with his wife by his side.

Prior to retiring in 1988, Jim was employed as a draftsman with the former Trenton Works for 34 years and, following, enjoyed a four-year employment with Proudfoots Home Hardware. Jim greatly enjoyed singing and travelling with the East River St. Mary’s Male Choir. He was an avid Montreal Canadiens fan and enjoyed spending time with his dogs.
