  1. We are sorry to hear that Mrs. Scoggan has passed away. What a lady! and wife! and mother! and grandmother! Please let us know what we can do for you.

  2. Grandma will be dearly missed. My favorite memory of her is back when Melissa and I were in Bible school and we were fussing over Daniel. Grandma got upset with us and told us to stop it and to be good. Thats the only time I ever saw her upset.She always had a smile for me.

  3. We love you Doris and family. You will always be our hearts. We have great memories of the kids growing up next door. Love, Sandra, Joe, and Jessi Unger

  4. Dear family, I am sorry I wasn’t able to attend Doris’ funeral with Jim. He said it was very nice and the music as well. I just watched the picture video on line with Jim and he was able to tell me who was who. We both enjoyed the slideshow as it showed the sweet, gentle side of Doris. You are in our prayers.

  5. My heartfelt sympathy to Diana and Family. Doris will be greatly missed. She was the greatest inspiration I ever knew and I loved her dearly.
