OBITUARY: Martin “Marty” Eugene Ziegler of Scottsbluff

Martin “Marty” Eugene Ziegler, 62, of Scottsbluff, got his longtime wish to go Home into our Lord’s Presence after struggling with a long term battle of mental and physical diseases.  On March 19, 2020 he went Home; he won his battle!  Even so, the Lord reminds us in John 6:39 that “it is the will of God that I should not lose even one of all those given to me, but should raise them up at the last day.”  A commonly known verse, John 3:16, was a favorite of Marty’s and was expressed many times:  “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

A small private family service will be held on Wednesday, March 25th at Dugan-Kramer Funeral Chapel with Pastor Jon Simpson from the Mitchell Berean Church officiating.  Burial will follow at the Fairview Cemetery.  Online condolences may be left at www.dugankramer.com
