Janette Tompkins Scott (née Davidson)
1940-2021
The family of Janette Tompkins Scott (Davidson) are sad to
announce her death at York Care Center, Fredericton, N.B. at 2 pm on
Tuesday, December 21st, 2021, 5 days past her
81st birthday. Born in Fort Fairfield, Maine, USA on December
16th, 1940, she was the daughter of the late
James Douglas Davidson and Evelyn Marie Davidson
(Tompkins).
Janette is survived by her loving husband of 61 years, Gerald
Ernest Scott. They were married in Andover, N.B. on April
20th, 1960. Janette is lovingly remembered by
her children, Ward (Jackie) of Maugerville, N.B., Beverley (Travis) of
Saint John, N.B.; grandchild Bruce of Phoenix, Arizona; sister-in-law,
Glenna Johnston (Scott); brother-in-law Robert (Toni) Scott, and
several nieces and nephews.
Janette grew up in Andover, N.B. (now Perth Andover), and
attended Andover grade school, Southern Victoria High School and
Fredericton Business College. She worked for a year at the Victoria
County office before her marriage. After marriage she followed her
husband to his various workplaces in New Brunswick for six years
before settling in Fredericton.
Janette enjoyed traveling by camper around most of North
America from California to Newfoundland and Alaska to Nova Scotia and
all points in between. She loved the family cottage at Two Brooks on
the Tobique that she helped to build and finish. She enjoyed
snowmobiling on her own machine hundreds of miles on the York County
and Tobique trails. Janette enjoyed hobbies and crafts including
gardening, knitting, quilting, reading, and her beloved pets. She
loved her family most of all.
The family wishes to thank all the management and staff of
the Birch Grove section of York Care Home for their kindness and care
of Janette during the last 2 years and 9 months that she spent with
you.
There will be no visitation or funeral. A Christian burial
will take place at the Scott family plot at the Moores Mills cemetery
at a later date.
