Duntavius Pitt

Duntavius Pittman was 21 years old and a member of the Atlanta community whose life mattered to family, friends and neighbors. Public records and contemporary news accounts identify him as a young man from southwest Atlanta; beyond the basic public details, there is little published personal information available in family-published notices or a formal obituary.

What is verifiable is that Duntavius’s life was cut short in late March 2016. News reports from local outlets list him among the city’s 2016 homicide victims and place his death in the same period as a shooting connected to a gathering in southwest Atlanta. Though the public record focuses on the circumstances of his passing, it is important to remember that he was more than the final entry in a police report: he was a son, kin and friend to people who grieve him still.

Because no family-authorized obituary or funeral-home notice matching his name and the exact date of death (March 26, 2016) was found in accessible obituary databases, this remembrance privileges dignity and restraint. It acknowledges the limits of the public record while honoring Duntavius as a real person whose loss affected loved ones and community. If family members or close friends wish to share memories, photographs, or corrections to ensure a fuller public remembrance, those contributions would help give a fuller portrait of the life behind the name.
