Darian Reese Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Reeseo, as he was affectionately called, brought light and laughter into every room he entered. With a knack for finding humor in the everyday, he had a gift for making people smile-even on their toughest days. Whether it was a perfectly timed joke or a heartwarming story told with just the right punchline, Darian reminded us all not to take life too seriously. He had a passion for watching basketball and football games, but his greatest joy came from being surrounded by friends and family.
Darian is preceded in death by his father, Austin Reese and lovingly remembered by his mother, Mary Ann Carswell; sisters, Danyeil Reese and Farah (Joe) Hurt; and his daughters Bianca (Jimmie) Jones, Daija Reese, and bonus daughters: Diamon Oldham and Destini Stephens. His departure leaves an unfillable void in their lives, yet they find comfort in the memories and everlasting love they shared.
