Jan 2, 2024

Scott Bradford Doleman, 51, a beloved son, father, brother, and friend, passed away suddenly on December 21, 2023, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those who knew and loved him. Born on October 2, 1972, in Ranson, West Virginia, Scott’s life journey was characterized by a deep commitment to family, community, and service.

Scott was baptized in 2003 and was a dedicated member of Asbury United Methodist Church. He served faithfully in many capacities and was appreciated for his leadership as the Chair of the Staff Pastor-Perish Relations Committee.

Education was a cornerstone of Scott’s life. He graduated from Shepherd University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. He went on to earn a Master of Arts in Communication Studies from West Virginia University. His dedication to learning was evident in both his personal and professional pursuits.

In his distinguished 19-year career with FedEx Freight, Scott rose to the position of Regional Vice President of Operations – Northwest, based in Phoenix, Arizona. He provided leadership to over 8,700 employees across 73 service centers and 3 relay yards. Scott’s journey with FedEx Freight began in 2004 as a supervisor at the Hagerstown, Maryland service center. His ascent through the ranks showcased his exceptional leadership skills, culminating in his role as Managing Director of Operations – Hagerstown, Maryland District in 2016.

Scott’s impact extended beyond the professional realm. He devoted 4.5 years as Operations Manager at D.M. Bowman, Inc. and another 4 years in Admissions at Shepherd University, where he also served as a Counselor and Assistant Men’s Basketball Coach.

Committed to community service, Scott was a founding member and President of the Shepherd University Athletic Club. He held

the office of president on the Shepherd University Alumni Association Board and was a founding officer of the United Brothers (UB) Fraternity. Recognized in the Shepherd Hall of Fame in 2000, Scott’s athletic prowess shone as a three-sport athlete in football, baseball, and basketball.

Scott’s generosity knew no bounds. A giver, mentor, and humble soul, considered life’s greatest accomplishment to be his son, Brendan. His dedication to others was evident in his love for his family and community.

In addition to his professional and academic achievements, Scott found joy in his love for God, fishing with friends, singing with his family group, coaching basketball with his father and cheering on his favorite NFL team, the Dallas Cowboys. He was hospitable and cooking reflected the diverse and rich tapestry of his interests.

Scott was greeted in heaven by his bonus father, Franklin Carter; maternal grandmother, Cordell Bradford; maternal grandfather, Jesse Bradford; paternal grandmother, Emmaline Doleman; paternal grandfather, Clarence Doleman, bonus grandmother Celina Carter, and bonus grandfather Benjamin Carter.
