My thoughts and prayers go out to Don Scroggins and his family. Jodi and Tim are good friends of mine, so I had the privilege of knowing Don and it was always a pleasure to see him. I'll never forget how he always greeted me with open arms and a smile, like family. He was a character, generous and kind and he was loved by many and will truly be missed. May he rest in peace.

Love you Don

I wanted to add to what Paul said. Tim, we were blessed the day you became part of our family. Meeting the rest of your family, getting to know and love them over the years was an added bonus. Dad and I will always be here for all of you. Your Dad will have a very special place in my heart. Love, Mom Allen

There is not enough time or words to express the kind of man Don was. I can only say what a great nephew,father, grandfather and friend he was .He always had a smile on his face and no thing be it large or small was ever to much for him to help with he never met a stranger. I had just talked to Don on thursday and I thank god that I had that last conversation I will so miss our talks the laighter the tears the the memories of things past and the hopes for things in the future I will forever strive to be even half the person that Don was I cannot express all that I feel but I know he knows whats in my heart to Tim and Jodie and family and Jason and Rebekkah and family I can only say my heart and prayers are with you I love you all. I know I have gone on long enough and yet there are a million things that I could say and that I feel I will say this I love you Don and miss you so very much already with all my heart and half my gizzard....untill I see you smile and hear your laugh again ... bye for now .love you Darla
