[gsk8]

Olympic figure skater Barbara Ann Scott is being fondly remembered at the Minto Skating Club in Ottawa. Club members say Scott, who passed away Sunday at the age of 84, never forgot the rink where she got her start.

Always thankful to those who made a piece of history for us to remember. R.I.P.

I'm sorry to hear about her passing. She was a pathfinder for North American skating.

Hadn't heard of her passing (real life getting in the way really cramps my skating obsession). RIP Ms Scott.

She actually passed away Oct. 1, 2012. Not sure why this would have come up again, but possibly Minto Club was having a summer function in which she was memorialized.
