Obituary - Scott Allen Mello
Scott Mello

Scott Allen Mello was born June 15, 1972, in Reno, NV, to Saundra Lou Mori and Donald Allen Mello and passed away unexpectedly on August 12, 2025, at Banner Churchill Community Hospital at the age of 53.

Scott began working at Kennametal in June 1990, where he was employed for nearly 35 years. Scott was an avid outdoorsman. If there was a hunt to be had, Scott was there. He spent the past six years with his faithful companion and wife, Brandy, at his side. His children were the light of his life, which was made even brighter by the arrival of his grandson, Dawson, in 2023.

Scott is preceded in death by his father, Donald Allen Mello, and is survived by his loving wife, Brandy Mello; his daughter, Amber (Abe); and son Cole; and his grandson, Dawson; his mother; Saundra Mello; and his sister, Traci Ledesma; nephew Jacob and niece Mikala; step-children Kyle, Aaron (Shaylin), Colton (Celene), Gage, and Makenzee.

Scott's passing leaves an unfillable hole in all of our lives. He will be deeply missed but remembered with immense love and laughter.

Services will be held on Tuesday, August 26, 2025, at 11 a.m. at Smith

Family Funeral Home, 505 Rio Vista Drive, Fallon. Please join us for a reception at the Eagles Hall, 7977 Reno Hwy, Fallon, NV, immediately following the service, where we will share our favorite stories and memories.

Comment publication date: 8/17/26, 7:40 PM Comment source: Jorge Jose Guerrero Comment author: Patti Cole Comment text: Marie will be forever treasured in memories. The memories remain of a soft-spoken, seemingly unassuming but determined individual who absolutely knew what path she wanted to take in life, and followed it. Her instinctive reactions, which highlighted her steadfast level of love and caring for her family, friends and all living things found in nature, hold lessons for us all. An unexpected splash of her self-deprecating humor, coupled with uncanny timing, will always bring a smile. For me, Marie lives on in the sighting of a Black-crowned night heron in the tules, the bloom of a beautiful spring flower and, most poetically, in the struggle of wildlife photographers handling their very large camera lenses.

Her dad Ted was my dad's brother. I never knew Ted or Betty, but I wish I did. I am 73 and live in IL. I am building my family tree and see where Betty has fit in. Blessings to you Curt and family.
