Elaine Lindsey Skaggs

1926 - 2022

Elaine Lindsey Skaggs, age 95 of Lindseyville, departed this life with her family by her side on Monday, April 25, 2022.  The Edmonson County native was born on June 9, 1926 to the late Elrie and Bertha Salings Lindsey.  She was married to her devoted husband of forty-two years, Bert Skaggs, until he preceded her in death on August 8, 1988.

Elaine was saved as a twelve-year-old girl at the old Midway School House.  She joined Midway United Missionary Baptist Church, and was a faithful member and pillar of the church until her health recently failed her.  Elaine was a homemaker and worked with her hands to provide for her family.  She had a kind, gentle spirit, and her greatest desire was for her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, friends and neighbors to know and serve the Lord.

She leaves to honor her memory— three daughters, Marcia Lindsey (Buster), Myra Cole and Melody Prunty (Pat); six grandchildren, Renee Webb (Eddie), Rev. Jonathan Lindsey (Dana), Amberly Alexander (Ryan), Britney Franich (Jeff), Taylor Renfro (Seth) and Kelci Prunty; ten great-grandchildren, Andrew Webb (Ashlee), Leslie Webb, Hannah Board (Bailey), Kaylee Lindsey, Lainey and Avery Alexander, Landon and Tenley Franich, Levi and Grayson Renfro; two great-great grandchildren, Jaxon and Tanner Webb; two siblings, Janice Chatfield (Rick) and Margie Browning, and a host of church family and friends. Besides her parents, she was also preceded in death by her son-in-law, Dickie Cole.

The family would especially like to thank Elaine's exceptional caregivers, Stephanie Booth, Betty Vincent and Lisa Hunt.

Interment will be in Midway Church Cemetery.  Memorial contributions can be made to:  Midway Church Cemetery Fund, c/o Charles Langdon, 102 Lindseyville Loop, Brownsville, KY  42210.
