Mr. Scruggs was instrumental in me becoming the person who I am. I had the opportunity to work in Stranahan's office during my senior year. I will never forget his professionalism and willingness to help all students. May God bless Mr. Scruggs for all the things that he did to make the students become successful.
My condolences go out to his family and friends.

My sincerest condolences to a man whose legacy includes one of the finest lawyers of our time, Frank Scruggs, Jr. I can only imagine what a wonderful father Mr. Scruggs, Sr. must have been. His presence in our community was a benefit to all of us.

Dear Frank, It was with great sadness that I read the obituary for your father. But one could only rejoice and give thanks for a beautiful life in which your father gave of himself to his family, his students, his teams and certainly to his community. We are all better people for what he has given to us. Frank, your father gave you to the St. Thomas Aquinas family and I am grateful. You are definitely his son. After reading all the things he accomplished in his lifetime I thought of you and what you have already done. You learned well from the example he gave. My heart and my prayers go out to you, your mother, Floydette and your sons. Be assured of my sincere sympathy and assurance of continued prayers that all of you may know peace in your hearts. Love, Sister John Norton

My condolences/prayers to the Scruggs' family. As a graduate of Stranahan High School (Class of 1976), Mr. Scruggs was my mentor. It is because of him that I was never suspended from school for "being disruptive." With his counseling and caring nature, he molded me with words/wisdom and encouragement.
I saw Mr. Scruggs I think in 1995/96. After all of these years, he still remembered my name and went on to inquire about my brother and sister (also graduates of Stranahan). He remembered their names, too.
Mr. Scruggs, my prayers are with you as you enter into a new life with God where I know you will continue doing great works.
To the family, I will keep you in my prayers today and always. God bless.

Few words can express my heart felt sympathy for the loss of Mr. Scruggs. I was a student of his at Dillard High School(Class of 1967).He was a God sent man who molded the lives of many young men and women for whom he touched. I am a product of his dedication and hard work and I will always be grateful for the opportunity to have met and spend time with him during his lifetime. May God continue to bless the family in the days to come.

I graduated from Stranahan in 1977. Dean Scruggs helped mold me into the person I am today. I worked in the Deans office with him for three years. I will never forget his smile and laugh. While he seemd the stern 'dean" those of us who worked with him, knew that he had a heart of gold. He was the "ultimate educater" and really loved his job. The summer after High School he requested that I come work at the school as a secretarial assistant, which I did. I know that God is smiling because he now has a very special angel in heaven with Him. To the Scruggs family, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for sharing this wonderful man with so many of us. May God Bless you at this time of sorrow.
