A wildlife artist, she won the 1991 Minnesota Department of Natural Resources trout stamp contest.
She launched a political life spanning nearly 40 years first as a Little Canada City Council member and then a state lawmaker after an effort to stop a road project that threatened wetlands in Little Canada.
Scalze, who as a DFL state legislator co-authored the Legacy Amendment to help preserve clean water and protect the environment, died June 23 of cancer complications. She was 77.
Known by colleagues and family members for putting people ahead of partisan politics, Scalze typically went through three pairs of tennis shoes knocking on doors each campaign season.
