Robert Scruggs
July 9, 1949 — November 27, 2015
Robert Lester Scruggs, a retired Major with the Maryland State Police, passed away on November 27, 2015 in Towson, MD. He was 66. Known to answer to either Bob or Les, he was an avid cyclist and runner. He was a man known for his infectious laugh, big heart, and generosity. There are few, who upon encountering him, did not part as fast friends. His kindness in this life is reflected in the lives of all those he so sadly leaves behind. He will be dearly missed by countless friends, acquaintances, and extended family.
He is survived by his wife of 39 years, Charlene F. Scruggs; his two sons, Robert Christopher Scruggs of Baltimore, and Jonathon Charles Scruggs and his wife Kristen of Annapolis; his mother Dorothy B. Scruggs of Jessup; and his brother Steven J. Scruggs and his wife Sallie of Jessup; and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews. In his passing, he joins his dear sister Sharon Suarez-Murias and father Robert P. Scruggs.
