Clostridium perfringens
In December 2014, 87-year-old Bessie Scott died 3 days after eating a church potluck supper in Nackawic, New Brunswick, Canada. Over 30 other people reported signs of gastrointestinal illness, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. The province's acting chief medical officer says, "Clostridium perfringens" is the bacteria [sic] that most likely caused the woman's death.
