Darryl A. Malone, 20, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, March 17, 2024, in Louisville, Kentucky. Born on February 15, 2004, Darryl's vibrant spirit touched the lives of all who knew him. Darryl was a student of Simmons Bible College, where he cultivated a deep faith and sense of community. His infectious laughter and warm personality made him the life of every gathering. He had a knack for bringing smiles to people's faces with his witty jokes and playful demeanor. Darryl's love for hugs was legendary, and his bear hugs could instantly brighten anyone's day. As the CEO of Dirt2Diamonds, Darryl combined his passion for fashion and entrepreneurship. His clothing line was not just about style but also about empowerment, inspiring others to turn their struggles into successes. Darryl believed in the transformative power of hard work and perseverance, values he instilled in both his business and personal life. Darryl was an avid basketball player who found joy on the court. He also had a deep appreciation for music, often seen dancing and singing along to his favorite tunes. Darryl will be deeply missed by his loving family, friends, and all those whose lives he touched. His legacy of laughter, love, and determination will continue to inspire generations to come.
Darryl is preceded in death by his brother, Blair Ethan Coleman; and an uncle, Colby Banks.
Left to cherish his blessed spirit, Darryl is survived by his parents, LaQuita and Larry Davis; 4 siblings, Laura Davis, Jacob Bennett, Aryana Davis, and Madison Banks; cousin, Jasmin Ruff; aunt, Courtney Ruff; uncle, Steven Banks; grandmother, Candace Banks; many other cousins, aunts, uncles, extended family and close friends.
"Pressure Makes Diamonds"
"My son, attend to my words; Incline thine ear unto my sayings.
Let them not depart from thine eyes;
Keep them in the midst of thine heart
. For they are life unto those that find them, And health to all their flesh."

Darryl definitely was one of my close friends. He always kept a smile on his face around me on and off campus. You are truly loved and missed. I´ll never forget a friend like you. It hurts, but he left his mark here with us to always remember how sweet he really was.
