He is survived by: his siblings; Eleanor (Kitt) Samuels, Linda (Kitt) Craig, Darlene (Kitt) Mitchell & her husband Kevin, and Anthony Kitt; his nieces and nephews, as well as his great-nieces and nephews; and his extended family.

He was preceded in death by his parents; siblings, Charlie H. Kitt, Jr., Archie A. Kitt, and Ernestine (Kitt) Mallory; and great-niece, Kadejah Mallory.
