SCRUGGS, DOUGLAS RAY
Douglas went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, July 24, 2007. He died as a
result of a traffic accident just east of Hammond. He was 55 and an
employee of Trimac Transportation. Douglas was a kind and generous husband,
father, son and friend. He never ceased to try to please his loved ones. He
loved Jesus with all of his heart, so we are comforted that he is home now.
We pray that God will mend the break in the hearts of all who loved him and
were blessed to be a part of his life. He left behind his wife of 28 years,
Winnie G. Scruggs; mother, Mary Frances Morea; mother-in-law, Delories
Franklin; father and stepmother, Carter and Velma Scruggs; brother, Michael
Scruggs; two sons and daughters-in-law, Randy and Robin Messer and Rusty
and Lynn Messer; four grandchildren, Brandon and Wesley Golson, Megan
Romaire and Ryan Messer; two nieces, Sandy Harris and Crystal Ray; and a
nephew, Dwayne McRimmon. He was preceded in death by a grandson, Terrence
Songy; and brother, Larry McRimmon. Douglas was a veteran of the U.S. Navy
and a member of Antioch Baptist Church. Visitation at Wilbert Funeral Home
in Port Allen was on Friday, July 27, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Visiting
resumes at the funeral home on Saturday, July 28, from 9 a.m. until
religious service at 11 a.m., conducted by the Rev. Richard Baker.
Interment in Grace Memorial Park in Plaquemine.
