Remembering Scott Cooke

The Town of New Glasgow is deeply saddened by the passing of Scott Cooke.
Scott dedicated many years to serving our community through his work at the local stadium before continuing his career at the Pictou County Wellness Centre. He was a familiar and welcoming presence at the rink, known for his kindness, friendship and willingness to lend a hand. His dedication and the positive impact he had on colleagues, ice users and members of the community will not be forgotten.
 
We extend our heartfelt condolences to Scott’s family, friends, former colleagues and everyone whose life he touched. Our thoughts are with all who are grieving this tremendous loss.
