Keigh Lancaster Obituary

May 20, 1966 - August 20, 2017 Keigh Kristin Lancaster was born in Los Angeles; she passed away in Westwood, Los Angeles, at the age of 51. She was a witty, good-natured, deeply generous and compassionate woman whose sudden death leaves her family and friends heartbroken. Though life was not always kind to Keigh, she met adversity armed with her father's sense of humor and her mother's sweetness. She had a perpetual twinkle in her eye and a raucous laugh that made everyone around her feel at ease. She was predeceased by her parents, Bill Lancaster and Kippie Kovacs. Survivors include her uncle James Lancaster and her aunts Bette Kovacs (Elaine Guy), Susan Lancaster, Joanna Lancaster (Michael Singh) and Sighle Lancaster (Marty Walker), and Keigh's boyfriend, D.J. Achtermann. Services will be held at Pierce Brothers Mortuary, Westwood, on September 19, 2017, at 2pm. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation in Keigh's name to Step Up on Second in Santa Monica.

I was Keigh's "primary caretaker/giver from 1983 I think to 85. My son and I lived with her in Westwood and Brentwood. I have diaries that I kept during our time together. This "mom" role prompted me to do a Masters in Psychology and at age 85 I continue to work as a psychotherapist. As I reflect back, my years with Keigh loom large. She enjoyed a moment of transformation in to an angel. It was a privilege to be that part of her path.
