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.

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
