David Scroggie

David Scroggie, age 92, of White Lake, passed away Sunday, April 23, 2023, at his home. Left to cherish his memory are his loving wife, Margaret; his son, David (Deborah) Scroggie; his son-in-law, Doug Tolman; his three grandchildren: Laura, Michael (Tori), and Kyle (Charlotte); and his great-granddaughter, Isla. David also has another great-grandchild on the way!

David was born July 17, 1930, in Detroit, the son of Mr. & Mrs. James and Bertha (Anderson) Scroggie. He was introduced to Margaret Heidrich as a young man in Detroit, and it was love at first sight! David and Margaret began dating, and eventually were married on November 7, 1953, sharing nearly seventy wonderful years together. David proudly served his country in the United States Marine Corps from 1951 until 1953, during which he was stationed at Camp Lejeune. Upon his discharge from the service, David began his career at Ford Motor Company; serving as a master electrician for thirty years until his retirement in 1986. In his free time, David could always be found enjoying a beer, spending time with his family, or working on his house or yard. He greatly enjoyed taking the boat out for a ride, and made many fond memories on bird hunting trips. He was a wonderful man who will be greatly missed.

David was preceded in death by his parents, James and Bertha; his daughter, Linda Tolman; and his brother, James Scroggie.

In accordance with David’s wishes, cremation will take place. No public services have been scheduled.
