Scott M. Brown

Scott Michael Brown, 51, Warsaw, died Monday, Oct. 3, 2022. Scott was born Sept. 27, 1971, to Toni Bullers (Shafer) and Michael Brown.

He is also survived by his enormous “family” of friends who will forever cherish their time with him. Scott was preceded in death this year by his loving mother, Toni Schafer.

Scott grew up in Georgia, Tennessee and ultimately called Indiana his home. Scotty enjoyed spending time and sharing laughs with his friends, often over a cold beer, a game of bowling, at a music festival or floating down a river. Scott was an avid lover of the New York Yankees. He was a true connoisseur of music and had a fervent love of books and movies. Scott was a talented musician and an accomplished writer; he was wise, intelligent and always quick with a joke. Scott was a lover of many things, but the love for his daughter surpassed all. Scotty Brown was a kind and gentle soul, a true friend to many. Scott was “one of the good ones.” The Dude abides.

A celebration of Scott’s life will be held at a later date. Arrangements are through McHatton Sadler Funeral Chapels, 2290 Provident Court, Warsaw. Memorials may be directed to the American Cancer Society, P.O. Box 6704, Hagerstown, MD 21741 or to Scott’s family to assist with final expenses.

“And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.”
