A.F. Crowe Funeral Home
November 22, Brian Scott Thomas, formerly of Bowling Green, finished his fight with Parkinson's disease. Brian was born on October 22, 1958 in Dayton, Ohio to Bill and Audrey Thomas. He went to Ball State University on a wrestling scholarship. He loved that experience and in 1979 and 1980 was the MAC champion for his 190 weight class. He stayed at Ball State and did an MBA so that he could be a graduate assistant coach for the team. Brian married Laurie Teegarden in December 1993. They had two children, Samuel (Sam) and Olivia (Liv), but later divorced. Brian loved being a dad, and so time with Sam and Livy ALWAYS was his priority and what brought him great joy. He also loved and welcomed Sam's wife, Taylor when she and Sam met. Brian was a collector of friends. This was one of his "super powers". His death will leave a big hole in many hearts because many love him so dearly. Brian is survived by his kids, Livy and Sam, Sam's wife Taylor, siblings Shelly, Stuart, Beth and in-laws Marcia and Paul, 6 nieces and nephews--Wesley and his wife Camila and son Reuben, Nathan and his wife Sydney, Sarah, Anita, Jocelyn and her husband Zach, and William. Brian's family is SO grateful to the amazing team at Glasgow State Nursing Facility who have given him such amazing care since May 2021 and to Hosparus who have journeyed closely with him this past year through the ups and downs. Brian's courage, strength and determination amazed us all.
A.F. Crow & Son Funeral Home was entrusted with the care of Mr. Thomas.
