Gorgonia Scroggs Obituary
Gloria grew up in the province of Leyte, Philippines, and was both strong and tenacious. As a survivor during the Japanese invasion during World War II, she embarked upon a lifetime journey of homesteading and motherhood. Her family and friends will always remember her as a woman of conviction.
Gloria was the epitome of generosity, selflessness and hard work. All that she had, she shared and gave away and gladly left nothing for herself. She leaves a legacy of a family that will continue to strive to be generous, selfless and hard-working as taught by their beloved matriarch. All of us can't wait to "see you then" beloved mother and sweet Gram.
Gloria is preceded in death by her husband, James Jay Scroggs; her daughters, Susan Marie Scroggs and Diane Louise Scroggs; and son, James John Scroggs.
Gloria is survived by her daughters, Marcella Anne Scroggs and Lillian Nanette Scroggs and son-in-law, Drew Dano Tolliver; grandchildren, Shadow Jon Thomas May and wife Ana Rebecca May, Jesson May, Michael Mann II, James Calvin Mann, Jeremy Scroggs, Joshua Stanley Houk and wife Anastasia Rose Marie Houk, Racheal Simone Peterson and husband Nicolas Dean Peterson, Monica Virginia Dimick and husband Seth Nolan Dimick, Sasha Ann Fallon and Husband Zane Fallon, Nicole Annette Stasek, Max Stasek, Danielle Telan Scrogg and, Ashley Janette Moran-Scroggs and husband Charles Patrick Moran; and great-grandchildren, Benjamin Rocket May, and Birch Ryland May, Aspen May, Navaeh Kenzie Lee Scroggs, Kyler Jordan Mann, Kaden Wayne Mann, Nicolette Marcella May Scroggs, Elizabeth Katheryn Aleah Scroggs, Jayden Nathaniel Houk, Aurora Virginia Simone Houk, Telan Jezel Fallon, Taylor Eve Fallon, and Macarther Louis Fallon, Azelya Celeste Moran, Layton Drew Jennings-Scroggs, Michael Alan Moran, and Keith Stasek and Jack Maryott.

Strength, courage, humor, love of family, and of course smoked salmon and your amazing cooking, are just a few things that I think of when I think of you. Thank you for giving my family and I the great gift of spending some time with you, as much as such distance provided. A truly amazing woman who will be missed terribly---The world is forever changed without you.
The sadness of your departure also carries a smile of happiness for you, as you are now reunited with others that you love, and have missed for so long.
