Dorothygene Frederica Scroggins
(August 8, 1932 - December 13, 2011)

Dorothygene Frederica Scroggins died December 13, 2011 peacefully at her home with family present to comfort her. Dot, as she was known to friends & family, was the youngest of seven children of Fred Otis Swearingen & Flora Eliza (Hudson) Swearingen. Dot was born August 8, 1932 near Drain, Oregon where she attended grade and high school as she grew to adulthood on the family farm on Jack Creek west of Drain.

Dot was active in school, lettering in Volleyball, Basketball & Softball, elected to several class officer positions, princess on various courts and school annual staff among other school activities. She graduated in 1950 and joined the US Air Force. Dot served two of her Air Force years in Japan where she traveled extensively on base basketball & softball teams. She was honorably discharged in 1954. She graduated from Eugene Business School in 1955. Dot remained active in sports and joined the Women’s Bowling Congress in 1955 and remained a member most of the rest of her life.

Dot met Duane L. Scroggins in 1957 whom she married May 25, 1958 in the United Methodist Church in Drain, Oregon. They celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2008 with family and friends in Walla Walla, Washington. They lived in San Francisco while Duane completed his second degree in Civil Engineering and Dot worked for MJB until their son, David, was born. She then became a stay-at-home mom. In fact, she was a pioneer soccer mom. They moved to San Leandro, California as Duane began a career in municipal engineering. Darinda was born there in 1964.

They moved to Roseburg, Oregon where Darla was born in 1969. They moved two years later to Medford, Oregon. Dot was Den mother, Room mother, Softball coach, PTA activist and foremost, the mom to her kids—always the first on the agenda. In 1978, they moved back to Roseburg, out in the country that time, then to Walla Walla in 1983. One child graduated from high school in each of those cities. During all these moves, Dot remained an active bowler and WBC member while participating in league bowling. She competed in State & National tournaments after her children graduated from high schools and on to college, careers & a life of their own.

Here in Walla Walla the last 28 years, Dot has been to Reno, Nevada, Tucson, Arizona, Syracuse, New York, Baton Rouge, Louisiana and places in between to compete in National bowling tournaments. She amassed many friends in Walla Walla through her bowling activities. Dot has been an avid fan throughout her life and has been to many National League Parks.

Dot maintained an active life playing bridge with more than one group at a time. She was active in the Plymouth Circle of the First Congregational Church especially before Duane retired in 1994 when they traveled extensively. Even after travel & retirement, she was able to contribute time (and pies) to the Circle and church. She volunteered with the American Red Cross for many years—again contributing her baking skills by providing cookies to many a blood drive along with other duties. Dot also served on the board of the YWCA among other community activities.

Pioneer soccer mom continued a family tradition. Her great grandfather, Andrew Jackson Swearingen came to Oregon as an 1852 pioneer and settled on a Donation Land Claim in the Umpqua Valley. Dot was a Daughter of Oregon Pioneers and active in Chapter 12 of the Daughters of the Pioneers of Washington.

When Duane retired from his engineering career, they traveled extensively. There were two multi-month RV trips around the USA, three RV summers in Alaska & Canada, flights to Hawaii to make use of Darla’s time share “problems” plus numerous short trips with family & friends—all while keeping up with bowling, bridge and pie-making “duties.” Dot & Duane have been overnight in all 50 states and 5 Canadian provinces or territories. They have stayed in almost all National Parks that they could drive to.

Dot is survived by her husband of over 53 years, Duane, in Walla Walla; her son David (Linda) in Medford, Oregon; her daughter Darinda (Bill) Coble in Milton Freewater, Oregon; her daughter Darla (Jack) Steiner in Alexandria, Virginia; grandson Jeremiah Coble, grandson Diego Steiner and granddaughter Olivia Steiner. She is the surrogate grandmother of John& Amanda Meliah. She is also survived by her sisters, Alta Nute, La Pine, Oregon and Irma McIntosh, Drain, Oregon; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, family & friends she loved dearly. She is preceded in death by her father & mother, 2 brothers, Clay & Victor Swearingen; 2 sisters, Mae Farnsworth & Lucille Burdette.

There will be a Memorial Celebration of Life at the First Congregational Church on Tuesday, December 20, 2011 at 10:00 AM with Rev. Cecelia McKean officiating. A private inurnment will be at Mountain View Cemetery. Dot asks that memorial contributions in lieu of flowers be made in her memory to St. Mary Regional Cancer Center Special Needs Fund or Walla Walla Community Hospice through the Herring Funeral Home, 315 W. Alder, Walla Walla, Washington.

James Scroggins, Dignity Memorial, Montecito Memorial Park and Mortuary, October 13, 2011

In Memory of
James Scroggins
January 13, 1927 - October 12, 2011

It was the middle of winter when James Olan Scroggins was born on January 13, 1927 in Abernathy, Texas. He was born into the start of the Great Depression, a time when the nation was struggling. However, that never stopped him from making the best of his life along with his mother, Margaret, and six siblings. James worked on the family farm until he was able to join the Marines in 1944, at the age of 17.
During his 20 year of service in the Marines, James made his way through the ranks to a sergeant. He served in WWII and the Korean War where he was able to travel to many different places around the world. In his time in the Marines, some of the areas James lived in were Thailand, Hawaii, New York, Korea and Japan. He was an American patriot who devoted his life to protecting his country.

Even though a large part of his life was spent in the Armed Force, James still had time for romance. He is survived by his third wife, Catherine Scroggins. Although James had no children of his own he was, and always will be loved, by his grandchildren. His sense of humor and infectious laugh will be missed, but will always be remembered.

A visitation will be held at 10:00 A.M. at Montecito Mortuary with a graveside service to follow at Riverside National Cemetery at 1:00 P.M. on Thursday, October 20, 2011. Arrangements under the direction of Montecito Memorial Park & Mortuary, Colton, California.

Arthur Evander Scroggins (13 May 1899 - 13 Oct 1976) [21266]

2011-06-23T12:56:00.010-04:00

Dodge City Daily Globe, The (KS) - June 23, 2011
Deceased Name: The Scroggins Legacy
The Arthur E. and Cornelia C. Scroggins Foundation was established for the benefit of the Dodge City community. Their will, as read in 1977, began a trust fund to be directed by six trustees. The will called for "the use of funds to support building a mausoleum to memorialize the Scroggins family name, to promote teaching as an honorable profession; and encourage world travel as an invaluable tool for education." The trustees are instructed to distribute the income from the estate for "charitable, religious, scientific, literary, or educational purposes." The checks written in 2011 to 32 non-profit organizations in southwest Kansas total $138,280 to recipients. The Foundation has also been giving $5,000 annually to the city of Dodge City for the upkeep of the mausoleum. By agreement with the City, the foundation gave title of the mausoleum to Dodge City in 2004. Its value at the time was approximately $1.5 million. When the Scroggins Foundation was chartered by the State of Kansas, the assets totaled $1.5 million. By the close of 2010, not including the mausoleum, the assets had grown to $2 million. During its existence, the foundation has given over $1.5 million to the community. Maple Grove Cemetery's Avenue of Flags is enhanced by the beauty of the mausoleum which provides additional choices for internment. The interior of the mausoleum provides an ideal space for funeral services, an added benefit during inclement weather. The interior stone is red Lavanto marble from Italy. The exterior stone is Marina pearl granite from Norway. The mausoleum was constructed in 1981 by McClesky Mausoleum Corp. of Atlanta, Ga. The Vietnam War Memorial in Washington, D.C. is made of the same Norwegian granite.

Who was Arthur Scroggins?

Arthur Scroggins was born on a farm seven miles south of Salisbury, Mo., on May 13, 1899. His family moved several times during his youth. He graduated from Warrensburg Missouri High School in 1916. The family lived in Lewis, Kan., briefly before moving to Dodge City. Arthur inherited his conservative discipline standards of behavior from training from his mother. He often credited his character and his achievements to his mother, stating, "The hands that rock the cradle, shape the world." Scroggins also credited another lady, an aunt, who influenced his life. Her husband, a physician, found his nephew, Arthur, a job in a drugstore. Student Arthur worked at the drug store to make money to further his career. He long remembered the aunt telling him he did not have what it took to be a professional, that he should be content to be a laborer like his father. That experience spurred Scroggins to become an advocate for education. In 1919, following two years of college, Scroggins entered the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md. He left after a few months.

A letter to his mother to explain his departure stated, "A military life is not for me." In 1921-22, Arthur was principal of the High School in Center, Mo. The following year, he attended Fort Hays State where he pursued a graduate degree in education. In Dodge City, Arthur taught one year at Lincoln Elementary. At the time, the Dodge City School system administration had a policy that granted a higher salary to married teachers than to single teachers. Scroggins disagreed with this policy, thinking it was unfair. He chose instead to teach at the Santa Fe Railroad's school for worker's children in Mexican Village, called Coronado School. He was the principal of Coronado School when it was closed in 1942. Scroggins' enthusiastic love of learning was transferred to those he taught. He became interested in world travel because it helped him to influence Hispanic education with geography and history. The knowledge he acquired during travel added interest in the classroom. He took hundreds of pictures and made colored slides that he used in his teaching. During 14 summers, he visited 57 countries. Scroggins appropriated Mark Twain's quote, "Travel is fatal to prejudice, racism, and bigotry." Scroggins met Cornelia, the lady who would become his wife, on an around-the-world tour in 1953. He and his wife Cornelia each accumulated savings from their teaching salaries. Their initial investments were in real estate. Cornelia purchased a sizable metropolitan apartment building in California. She also acquired 60-irrigated acres near Tulelake, Calif. Scroggins bought low-cost housing on Dodge City's eastside for rentals. After Pearl Harbor, being subject to the draft and concerned about caring for his property, he converted to farm land. Being a student of human behavior, his next investing was in tobacco and liquor company stocks. Cornelia also purchased a large house for her residence and offered sleeping rooms for students. As soon as the Army Air Base was finished at Dodge City, Scroggins was hired to be a civilian instructor. Cornelia began teaching in a one-room country school and retired from a large metropolitan school district in California. After the war years, they each resumed their pattern of traveling. Following their 1953 meeting during a cruise and subsequent courtship and marriage, they divided their retirement years between California and Dodge City. Their Dodge City apartment was at the Miller home, 905 Avenue A.

Near the end of their lives, Mr. and Mrs. Scroggins often expressed concern about their perceived changes to the character of American society. They were convinced that the cure for our economic and political ills would only be solved by education. That's why they structured their will to leave their estate in a foundation that would benefit the community, with an emphasis on education and support for those organizations that develop humanity. Following his 2002 nomination by the Scroggins Foundation trustees, Arthur Scroggins was inducted into the Kansas Teachers Hall of Fame. Editors Note: Two of the nurses who cared for Arthur Scroggins during his last weeks of life were his former students.
