Scott A. Vanosdol

Today, we mourn the loss of a truly special soul, my brother-in law Scott. He brought joy and love into our lives in ways that words cannot fully express. His unique spirit and resilience taught us all valuable lessons about kindness, patience, and the beauty of life.

Scotty faced challenges that many could not imagine, yet he approached each day with a smile and an unwavering determination. He reminded us of the importance of compassion and understanding, and his laughter will forever echo in our hearts.

As we navigate this difficult time, let us celebrate his life and the impact he had on everyone around him. We will cherish the memories we created together and honor his legacy by continuing to advocate for those with special needs.

Rest in peace, Scotty, you will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

Scotty was a client of the Cardinal Services in Warsaw for many years and always with a smile on his face, he loved greeting people, shaking their hand and saying, “How are you doing?” His hugs and laughter were his “specialties.” He shared a home in Warsaw with his 2 roommate brothers, Matt and Isaiah.

Our family would like to thank the Cardinal Services for being such an important part in his life, and also a very special thank you to his caregivers: Virginia (Missy), Victoria, Chris, Jamies, Francisco, and Emma. “He loved you all so much.”
