Daryle Stith Jr. Obituary
In Loving Memory of Daryle Eugene Stith Jr.
Sunrise: April 27, 1984
Sunset: September 20, 2025
Daryle Eugene Stith Jr., age 41, was the cherished only child of the late Daryle Eugene Stith Sr. and Vickie Stith. A proud graduate of Mifflin High School, Daryle was known for his love of sports—especially basketball—and his unwavering loyalty to the Los Angeles Lakers.
Daryle found joy in life’s simple pleasures: cruising to music, hitting the gym and the range, and settling in for a good movie—particularly horror films and documentaries. Recently, he discovered a passion for aquatics and took great pride in caring for his aquarium.
Daryle’s infectious smile, kind heart, and vibrant spirit will be deeply missed. He loved his family fiercely and treasured every moment spent with them. His wife, Morgan, holds countless hours of video capturing their adventures and the joy of raising their four beautiful children: Trinity, Maryah, Aryanna, and Dreyvon.
He was preceded in death by his father, Daryle Sr.; grandmother, Kay Frances Stith; and close and cherished uncles- Antonio, Brian, Tony and beloved Great Uncles, as well as his best friend Tyrell Franklin.
He leaves behind his loving mother, Vickie Stith; devoted wife, Morgan; children, Trinity(Michael), Maryah, Aryanna, and Dreyvon; and adorable 5-month-old grandson, Sylas. Uncles, James (Debbie), Kenny (Yoeuth), and Wayne (Kwainea) Stith; grandmother, Dorothy White; and a host of supportive, loving and very dear to him aunts, uncles, cousins and friends who will forever cherish his memory. Close family- Garry, Kenny, Nicole, Joe, Darius, Solomon, Big Kenny, Junior and Charles Moody.
In July 2025, Daryle experienced a profound spiritual awakening at the Vineyard Church, Westerville campus. Moved by a sermon delivered by Pastor Joshua Miller, he stood and gave his life to Christ, sharing with his mother how deeply the message resonated with him.
Through his selfless decision to become an organ donor with Life Line, Daryle gave the gift of life to four individuals—an enduring legacy of compassion and generosity.
