Dear Susan, Cyndi and family,
As October 13, rolls around, I am gently reminded of your Dad's passing. As I have expressed many times, the Keathley family holds a special place in the hearts of the late Uncle Shorty and Aunt Juanita Griffin's family. I hope and pray that comfort and peace rest upon you during this time of remembrance.
Susan, thank you as well for your kind words during the recent passing of my lovely wife Marlene. The anniversary celebration that was held for and with your mom and dad at Patti's on Barkley Lake several years ago brought special memories to Marlene every time we talked about it. With all our love, Trent

What wonderful memories I have of your father as a visiting teenager to the Keathley home. No words were ever wasted by your dad with his soft spoken demeanor. To my young and restless mind, he always demonstrated gentle patience and calm class. With fond memories and loving thoughts...

Harold Keathley was one of those people in my life that I learned some small life lessons from. His quiet kindness was given to me on more than one occasion. He was extremely devoted to all of his children and his wife, whom he is with now I am sure. To all of his children, my friends, I hope that you know of my shared loss.

I hope you find solace in that he had such a long and healthy life and that you all still have each other and the wonderful memories you all created together.

With deepest sympathy,
