July 13, 1939 – August 15, 2022
Larry Leon Scaggs, 83, Carmel, was called to his heavenly home Monday, August 15, 2022. He was born July 13, 1939, in Eaton, Ind., son of W.M. and Delia Miller Scaggs.
Larry was an entrepreneur who was a hard worker with strong work ethics. As a young adult, Larry recognized his need for salvation, was saved, and attended Bethel Baptist Church in Georgetown, Ill. He enjoyed fishing, playing cards, and would often win at playing bingo. He was very generous and would willingly give to others in need. Larry strongly felt no one should be alone on Thanksgiving, so he would invite people into their home to share a delicious meal together with his family. Most importantly, Larry loved his family and spending time together.
In addition to his parents, Larry was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Donna; brothers, James, Lloyd, Jerry, and Richard; and sister, Wilma Jean.
Survivors include his children, Tina (George) Hoehne of St. Charles, Ill., Dixie (Mark) Martin of Westfield, Gary Scaggs (Kymberly Arnell) of Ocala, Fla., and Denise Scaggs of Vacaville, Calif.; seven grandchildren, Jamie (Michael), Aaron (Melissa), Peyton, Zachary, Corie, Stephanie, and Chad; six great-grandchildren, Grant (Megan), Max, Jack, Kingston, Trey, and Bodhe; and sister, Pat (Darrell) Terhune.
Family and friends will gather at 10 a.m. (CDT) on Monday, August 22, 2022, at Chrisman Nazarene Church, 313 N. Pennsylvania St., Chrisman, Ill., where the Funeral Service will begin at 11 a.m. (CDT). Grant Daily, great-grandson of Larry, will officiate the service. Burial will follow in the Woodland Cemetery, Chrisman.
