Donald Cameron Osley

Donald "Donnie" Cameron Osley, 73, passed away peacefully at his home in Kingsport, Tennessee, on Friday, August 21, 2026. Born in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, Donnie lived a life full of hard work, generosity, and deep love for his family.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Nicholas and Helen Ostrosky; his parents, Ed and Arlene Osley; his sister, Deana Kernin; nephews, Doug Stallings, Anthony Caso, Harlan Jackson "Jack" Parr, and Joshua "Josh" Aidan Parr; and his uncles, Nicholas, Richard, and Daniel Ostrosky.

Donnie wore many hats throughout his life, but collecting and reselling sports memorabilia was his true passion. He proudly operated a shop inside the local flea market, always eager to share his best finds with anyone who mentioned a favorite team. His generosity was unmatched- if he knew what you loved, he made sure you received something special.

A skilled painter and sandblaster by trade, Donnie's work took him across the country. Later in life, he discovered a love for woodworking, crafting beautiful benches and tables made from cast wood. Above all, Donnie cherished time spent with his family, especially his grandchildren. He was an avid hunter and found joy fishing along the Gulf Coast during family vacations.

Donnie's infectious smile and warm spirit will live on in the hearts of his children, grandchildren, and all who loved him.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Susan; his daughters, Shannon Newbold and Kristen Whited (Josh); his son, Adam Osley; his grandchildren, Sabrina Enriquez, Sophia Osley, Jackson Whited, Mason Whited, and August "Auggie" Osley; his nephews, Michael Osley and Nicholas Osley; his sisters, Kim Caso and Joyce Money; and his brothers, Carl Osley, Ed Osley Jr., Wayne Osley, Mark Hernes, and Jeff Osley.

Condolences can be mailed to 129 Anco Dr., Kingsport, TN 37664. The family will hold a celebration of life at a later time.
