James Scott Obituary

Today marks fourteen years since the passing of my mentor, James Scott.
His wisdom, guidance, and integrity continue to inspire me, even in his absence.

I remain deeply grateful for the impact he had on my life and leadership.
May he rest in peace, always remembered.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

James Scott will always be remembered by me and hundreds of People in Dubai who worked with him as an executive director of jebel Ali port
I myself owe a lot to him for coaching ,training giving me the tools to make the right decisions
His patience sincerity and dedication have shaped my personality to be world port leader as I am today
I pray that god have mercy on his Soul and god rewards him in the life after

Betty,
It was a sad day today when I read of Jim's passing. I worked with Jim at the NC State Ports Authority. He was a gracious person, very approachable and down to earth. I remember picking him up at your home in Landfall for a trip to Morehead City. I said, "Mr. Scott, if you won't sing, I won't smoke." He said for me to go ahead and smoke if I wanted to but he would not sing. Another fond memory was when we were discussing a property issue and I had the nerve to tell him he was wrong and he replied, "The boss is never wrong!" I smiled and said he was in this case. He just shook his head and laughed. He will be missed but fortunately he left a lot of fond memories.
Betty, you and your family are in my heart and prayers.

Dear Betty
My prayers are with you and your family
