She was born on August 21, 1935 in Clarksburg WV to the late Denzil and Laura (Kelley) Furbee. She married Ronald E. Scurlock on August 9, 1957.
Velma and her husband, Ronald E., were well-known for owning and operating the 265 Carry Out for many years. She was a homemaker and made many beautiful cakes and wedding cakes for many. She was a fantastic cook and everyone especially looked forward to her delicious potato soup and nut rolls when she made them.
Velma was a loving and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother who will be missed dearly.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Ronald E. Scurlock; her brothers, William, Edward, Gerald, and Denzil; her sister, Patricia, and infant sister, Jane; and her in-laws, Herbert and Wilda Scurlock.
