Larry Leon Scaggs

Larry Leon Scaggs, 83, of Carmel, IN was called to his heavenly home Monday, August 15, 2022. He was born July 13, 1939 in Eaton, IN, 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 of salvation, was saved, and attended Bethel Baptist Church in Georgetown, IL. 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.
