Marvin "Butch" Dohogne, 72, of Scott City peacefully passed away, surrounded by his loving family, Wednesday, May 4, 2016, after a brief but courageous battle with cancer.
Butch was born to the late Walter and Augusta Dumey Dohogne on Nov. 10, 1943, in Kelso, Missouri. He married his true love, best friend and partner in life, Marsha Calhoun Dohogne on Aug. 8, 1964, at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Scott City.

He also worked for Brucker Auction Co., which was a great passion of his. He enjoyed collecting John Deere toy tractors and antiques. But most of all, he was a loving, devoted and caring husband, father and grandfather.
