Justin Scott DiPolito

Justin Scott DiPolito, 38, of Conneaut, passed away peacefully after a brief illness on Friday, February 13, 2026, at the Cleveland Clinic.

He was born March 4, 1987, in Conneaut, the son of George and Deborah (Benedict) DiPolito. A lifelong area resident, Justin graduated from South Ridge Christian Academy Extension School and was a devoted member of Walnut Creek Baptist Church.

Justin was an avid Ohio sports fan through and through. He loved cheering on the Ohio State Buckeyes, the Columbus Blue Jackets, and all the Cleveland teams. NASCAR also held a special place in his heart, and he enjoyed collecting memorabilia throughout the years. Justin had a naturally uplifting spirit-he was known for his positivity, encouragement, and his ability to find the good even in difficult situations.

One of Justin's greatest passions was shopping and extreme couponing. Known by many as "the coupon king," he eagerly shared his knowledge with anyone who wanted to learn. He used his talent not only to save but to bless others, often giving away items he purchased at deeply discounted prices. Justin's strong faith in God guided him, and he believed wholeheartedly that his couponing skills were a gift meant to help those around him.

Justin is survived by his mother, Deborah; his brothers, Steven (Jessica) DiPolito and Matthew (Mary) DiPolito; his maternal grandmother, Janice Benedict; his paternal grandmother, Beckie Burgos; and his nieces and nephews whom he greatly adored-Brooklynn, Adalyne, Greyson, Kyler, Oliver, Theodore, and Lucas. He is also survived by many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his father, George, in 2008, and his maternal grandfather, Ronald Benedict.

Funeral services will be held on Thursday, February 19, 2026, at 11:00 AM at Walnut Creek Baptist Church, 6015 W. Ridge Rd., Erie, PA 16506, with Pastor Denny Adkinson officiating. Burial will follow at South Ridge Cemetery.

Calling hours will be held on Thursday from 9:00 AM until the time of service.

Should friends desire, memorial contributions may be made in Justin's name to the family.
