SCOTT, JAMES "JIM" EDWARD GOODWIN
1939 - 2015
With his loving family by his side, the death of James 'Jim' Edward Goodwin Scott, 76, of Baie Verte, NB, occurred suddenly at the Dr. Georges L. Dumont Hospital, Moncton on Saturday, September 19, 2015. Jim was a son of the late James and Gertrude (Belden) Scott.
