Justin Scott Thomason

Justin Scott Thomason, age 52, of Mt. Vernon, Indiana, passed away peacefully at his home on June 11, 2025. Born on May 8, 1973, in Olney, Illinois, Scott was the beloved son of Teresia "Thomason" Hollinger.
Scott proudly served his country in the United States Army, embodying the values of dedication and service that defined his life.

Scott is survived by his devoted wife, Erica (Hargrove) Thomason; his loving mother, Teresia Hollinger; and his cherished children, Kyle Thomason, Kaylie Shephard, and Tailyr Buckley. He was a proud grandfather to ten grandchildren, who brought immense joy to his life. Scott is also remembered by his brother, Robert Ray Hollinger, and his in-laws, Robert and Lee Ann Hargrove. He was preceded in death by his step-father, Robert L. Hollinger.
