Scott Klopfleisch
Scott Klopfleisch, 63, of Brashear, TX passed away at his home with family by his side on Wednesday, October 14, 2020 from pancreatic cancer.
He was born on November 15, 1956 in Celina, OH to Gustov and Betty (Beougher) Klopfleisch. He graduated from Celina High School in 1975 and went on to earn his bachelor's degree from Bowling Green State University in 1980.
He was married March 7, 1981 to Rebecca (Phillips) Klopfleisch. They were together for 42 years. She survives along with their three children: Aaron Klopfleisch of Brashear, TX, Sarah (Chris) Carnes of Terrell, TX, and Kristen (Patrick) Brown of Howe, TX; three grandchildren: Addison Klopfleisch, Noah Brown and Cheyenne Brown; two sisters: Lori (Tim) Thwaits of Carey, OH and Karla (Doug) Smith of Celina, OH; niece: Kendal (Graham) Helmlinger of Jackson Center, OH; nephew: Damon Smith of Celina, OH; and great-nephew: Rowan Helmlinger.

He spent time traveling and especially enjoyed all the trips home to spend time with family in Ohio. Family was everything to Scott as he always put family first.
