Shirley M. Scott
1948-2020
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of
Shirley Maxine Scott, who passed away peacefully on October 25, 2020
at the Notre Dame Bay Memorial Health Centre, Twillingate, with her
loving family by her side.
Shirley was born on September 27, 1948 in Victoria Cove to
the late Maxwell and Helena (King) Bauld. She is survived by her
loving husband of 48 years, Allan; daughters Leanne (Mark), Allison
(Jason); grandchildren Kyle and Luke; siblings Cyril (Judy), Edwina
(Eldon), Elaine (Francis), Aubrey (Shirley), and Ross (Christine); and
many special nieces, nephews, in-laws and friends. Besides her
parents, she was predeceased by brother,
Herman.
Shirley spent 30 years teaching elementary school, which was
a profession that she truly loved. She spent retirement with her
children; doting on every request of her precious grandchildren;
quilting and sewing and enjoying the outdoors, most especially
spending summers in the boat out on the water. Shirley also cherished
the opportunity to see the world by taking many trips traveling with
her family. She will be remembered for her tremendously generous
attitude, always there to help others when needed. Her abilities were
truly astounding and she never hesitated to take on any challenge, be
it from sewing a button to making a wedding dress; from putting down
flooring to climbing scaffolding; or from pulling up fish to preparing
it for the freezer.
The family wishes to thank Dr. Natasha Pardy, Priscilla
Clarke, Dr. Jonathan Greenland, Heather Eveleigh, and the staff of the
Notre Dame Bay hospital for their care and compassion over the past
several months.
In light of the current Covid-19 pandemic, the health and
safety of our families and our community continues to be our highest
priority. At this time, there will be a private service with burial at
the St. Peter’s Anglican Cemetery,
Twillingate.
Flowers are graciously accepted or memorial donations may be
made to the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada or to a charity of
choice.
