July 1, 2013

Big Stone Gap, VA Dorothy Ellen Scalf, 79, went to be with the Lord on Monday (July 1, 2013). She passed away peacefully at her home. She enjoyed cooking, baking, and gardening. But most of all she loved helping people. A member of Appalachia Pentecostal Church, Dorothy was a woman of strong faith, charity, and deep devotion. A loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, she touched the lives of others in profound ways and will be deeply missed by friends and family. Dorothy was preceded in death by her husband, Foy David Scalf, Sr.; one son, Foy David Scalf, Jr.; and her parents, John and Leona (Isom) Rutherford. She is survived by seven children: Linda Naimi and husband, M. T. of Indiana, John Scalf and wife Sally of Florida, Michael Scalf and wife Tina of Ohio, Karen Rackel and husband Robert of Georgia, Suzanne Scalf of Virginia, William Scalf of Ohio and Glenn Scalf of Texas; 14 grandchildren; a dozen or more great-grandchildren; one brother and three sisters; several nieces, nephews, and cousins; and friends and relatives. The family will receive friends from 4 to 7 p.m. on Friday at Holding Funeral Home (17 E.3rd St., N.) in Big Stone Gap.
