David Ayrian “Buddy” Earl, 35, a resident of Marvell, departed this life, Saturday January 10, 2026, in Marvell. He was born, April 8, 1990, in Charlotte, North Carolina, the son of David Brian and Gladys Elizabeth Adkins Earl.
David worked as an auto mechanic and could make or build anything. He led a hard life but didn’t have a bad bone in his body, he would give somebody the shirt off his back if they needed it. Growing up he always wanted to make people laugh, he was the class clown and goofy in the best way. He used to have a pet bearded dragon that he loved and cared for. Buddy was loved and will be missed by many people.
He is survived by his father: David Brian Earl of Ormond Beach, Florida, one brother: Duston Earl of Kansas, one sister Amanda Hunter of Ormond Beach, Florida and several nieces and nephews and friends.
