    James “Paul” Scroggins won his battle with cancer and went home to be with Jesus on January 28, 2012. He was born on June 14, 1943 in Brighton, Colorado to Matt and Niva Scroggins.

    Paul and his twin sister Paulette were the youngest of eleven children, nine boys and two girls. He grew up in Northern California, where he attended high school at West Coast Bible College. Following high school, Paul joined “Nancy Harmon and the Victory Voices.” He traveled the world for thirteen years singing gospel music with them. He led and directed choirs in both California and Washington. His love for music was undeniable. While traveling with the “Victory Voices,” Paul met the love of his life, Geneva, and was married August 14, 1976. Shortly after getting married, Paul and Geneva moved to Longview, Washington where they began their lives together. He worked at Saint John’s Medical Center for sixteen years and loved his job. His daughter Sarah was born in 1986 and his world changed forever. She was the joy of his life and he never failed to let her know. Paul and his family moved to Houston in 1996 to be closer to his wife’s family. While in Houston, Paul managed self-storage facilities and fell in love with the country of Romania, where his daughter served as a missionary.

    Paul was an amazing husband, father, brother and friend. His smile was contagious and he never met a stranger. He was always whistling a gospel tune everywhere he went. He will be greatly missed, but his legacy lives on in the countless lives that he has touched. He has left his mark on our hearts.
