Nancy SCOTT Obituary

Published by Calgary Herald from Jun. 21 to Jun. 22, 2014.
SCOTT, Dr. Nancy (Johnson)
Our magnificent, beautiful One passed on June 4, 2014 peacefully at home with Andrew and Gemma. She leaves a blazing trail of warm radiance and stunning competence. A gifted dentist to thousands, a beloved and award-winning teacher at UBC, Nancy's facility to love unlocked all facades. We felt more whole in her presence. Her boundless devotion was mirrored by friends and family who poured forth heroic support in her illness. Our gratitude to you is immense. Nancy was born in Calgary in 1955 (Ernest Manning High, '72) where her siblings Clive, Robert, Anthony, Olivia and Paul still live. David is in Squamish, BC. She is predeceased by her parents Gordon and Barbara. A Memorial Service will be held on September 12, 2014 at 5:00 p.m. at UBC: Woodward Instructional Resources Centre - IRC Building at 2194 Health Sciences Mall. In lieu of flowers, please contribute to her legacy, Dr. Nancy Scott Memorial Award for UBC dentistry students: http:/ /memorial.supporting.ubc.ca/dr-nancy- scott/

Blessings of Peace Love and Light ... I just heard, and read this ...Nancy was a smiling gentle soul .... We met apartment hunting in Vancouver in 1980 when we both first arrived in Vancouver ... She was my dentist, and we lost touch when I returned to live in Jamaica in 1982, but my sister Margaret whom I introduced her to, carried on .... My sincerest condolences ... Victory to the Divine Light

I just now heard the very sad news. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you. Even though Nancy and I lost touch over the last few years, I often thought about her and how warm and lovely she was. She was always so vibrant and loved life. She will be missed by all who knew her.

Oh No! I have wanted for so many years to follow up to see how you were doing? Your name and spirit keep popping up,even after 38 years, as you were instrumental in me completing the marathon and for me meeting the man I married! And this all happened when I was lucky enough to be an employee of yours! The best job ever! Thank you. Dear Nancy, I am happy to hear you left this world in love, and being loved, as you so much deserved it all! You were larger then life and such a beautiful person inside and out. I am so blessed to have had met you. And I am so very sorry I was not there for you while you were ill, as you were always there for me...
This world has lost an amazing women. To your family, my sincerest condolences. Heaven and your mom and dad will be so very happy.
Always loved and never to be forgotten. xox

What a shock it was to read that Nancy is no longer walking this earth. What a deep, deep loss! I first met Nancy at est. I remember admiring her great beauty, powerful and compassionate leadership and her big spirit. She was also my dentist for awhile...helping me feel a little less anxious about the whole experience with her warmth and caring. Later our paths crossed in the Mastery community, but only briefly. I remember being so thrilled to hear about her marriage to Andrew, and again to hear of Gemma's arrival. We may not have been closely connected but I was always glad to celebrate your life blessings...Nancy, the world somehow feels a little dimmer knowing you are no longer with us. My deep condolences to family and close friends.

Farewell Nancy -- I am a friend from many years ago, participating the the Forum in Vancouver. Such wonderful energy and enthusiasm, and always a welcoming smile for everyone. She will be very much missed - and I am glad to have had the chance to know her.

To the Scott Family,
I have fond memories of Nancy and your family. As I reflect on my life your family was a constant reminder of all that is good. Nancy always had that determination to contribute wholly in her life and it's wonderful to see that she did just that. My heart breaks for all of you. You are all near and dear to my heart. God Bless you all.
