David A.O. Soblotne 1992-2017

MENTOR — David Alan Owsley Soblotne, 24, of Mentor, passed peacefully Wednesday, June 14, 2017, at Lake West Medical Center in Willoughby, surrounded by friends and family.

He was born Dec. 17, 1992, in Warren.

David was an amazing person with his beautiful, contagious smile, crazy antics and quirky sense of humor. He lived his life to the fullest with laughter. He loved music and going to concerts, cooking wildly spicy food, and he had an abiding passion for traveling. He was fortunate enough to visit many places, including traveling through Europe and in Germany in particular.

He was a compassionate person, always there to listen to life’s problems, lend a shoulder to cry on, or very literally offer his last $20 to a person in need.

David always valued quality over quantity. For him it was the journey that mattered, not the destination. He carried light into the lives of those around him even into death as an organ donor, bringing life to many others. His spirit will always shine brightly in the memories of those who knew and loved him.

His memory will be held by his parents, Melissa Soblotne and Tony Soblotne of Eastlake; his father, David and Erika Owsley; and his siblings, Stella, Max and Lydia Owsley of Liberty; Fynn Owsley of Warren; his grandparents, Carlos and Barbara Owsley of Warren; and many aunts, uncles and cousins throughout Ohio, West Virginia, Florida, Kentucky and Texas.

There are no services. Arrangements were made by Blessings Cremation Center, Mentor.
