Dallinger Leon Pace Jr. (DJ), born October 21, 1995, passed away on Wednesday July 23, 2025.

DJ was a loving son, brother, uncle, and friend. He enjoyed being outdoors exploring nature, camping with friends, spending time with family, and had a deep love for animals. He enjoyed listening to music - especially in the rock genre - and playing video games in his free time. He was a master at video games, including Guitar Hero, Call of Duty, Cup Head, and any other game you could think of. To challenge him at video games was to be demolished by him. DJ was a generous, kind, loving, and humorous soul who was always able to put a smile on anyone's face. DJ had a heart of gold. He was the kind of person that would put anyone and everyone else first at any cost, including giving the shirt off his back. His generosity knew no bounds.

DJ graduated high school from Hamilton High School in 2015.

DJ is survived in life by his brothers Jason Gravelle, Bobby (Rachael) Gravelle, Josh (Missy) Gravelle, and Jeremiah Pace, his sisters Joy Helton and Jennifer (Nick) Pace-Reumann, his grandmother Sue Kash (she called him Henry), his special friends Kenny Mallicote, Matthew Wentz, Tyler Lakes, and Jacob Stephens (Circle of Brotherhood), along with many nieces, nephews, aunts, and uncles. He is preceded in death by his mother Kathleen Gravelle, his father Dallinger Leon Pace Sr, grandfather Roy Kash, and grandparents Doris and Carl Pace.

Visitation will be held at Neidhard Young Funeral Home 7401 Hamilton Ave., Mt. Healthy on Monday, August 4, 2025 from 10 AM until time of Funeral Service at 1 PM with burial to follow at Crown Hill Memorial Park.
