Thomas (Tom) Mont Conley

Thomas (Tom) Mont Conley, 63, passed away on Sunday, March 15, 2026, after a short battle with stage four cancer. Born on July 11, 1962, in Akron, Ohio, Tom was preceded in death by his mother, Maxine Marie Conley and his brother, Larry Wayne Conley.

He is survived by his sister, Vickey (Don) Schultz; his brother, Bryan Conley; his son, Michael Darlak; and his grandchildren - Makala, Michael, Ryan, Bryan, and Daniel - along with many beloved nieces and nephews.

Before suffering from a stroke that led to limited use of his right arm, Tom was a dedicated dart player who won numerous tournaments and earned multiple Bell Music League MVP honors. Known for his heart of gold, Tom consistently put others before himself. His kindness shone through when he spent time with his grandchildren, who helped care for him. He enjoyed taking short walks and often chatted with neighbors.

He will be deeply missed by all who loved him.

On Monday, April 6, 2026, there will be a graveside memorial from 2-4 at Greenlawn Memorial Park Cemetery, 2580 Romig Rd. Akron, OH 44320.  A Celebration of Life will follow at 29 Swigart Ave. Barberton, OH 44203.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Campfield Hickman Collier Funeral Home.

A Poem in His Honor
“In quiet steps and gentle ways,
You shaped our days with light.
A steady heart, a giving soul,
You turned our wrongs to right.

Though now you walk a peaceful path
Beyond what we can see,
Your love remains, a guiding star—
Forever part of ‘we.’”
