James J. Keating

Keats always brought a smile, I'm so sad he left us. I know I am so late with this but I was going to reconnect with him. I was a parent with him on a AAU basketball team. God bless his family.! I pray they are all well. Jody Scharf

Keats- Think of you and pray for you each day.

Jimmy was always so kind and thoughtful. I always enjoyed his visits and our talks. He always made me smile and laugh. I will miss him and keep him in my prayers. Your mom and dad are now hugging the beautiful son they raised.

To Joanie, and the Entire Keating family, on behalf of the extended Rush clan, our deepest heartfelt condolences on Jimmy’s passing. Keats was the ultimate warrior, and an everyday, every way friend for a long time in our young lives. The stories go on and on. Chuckie, Wayne, Keats, Hundee, Train, the gang that was bigger than life. Even though we were mostly out of touch these last many years, I always considered Keats and the whole gang great friends and Jimmy was a remarkably honorable...

Jimmy will be missed by all those who knew and loved him. His visits and kindness shown over the years, especially to my mom, were so touching, compassionate, and caring, and will always be remembered by the Benson family. Sending comforting thoughts and prayers to the entire family.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Joannie and Family,
My heart aches for all of you. I have some fun and fond memories of Jimmy and the entire Keating family during our younger days at St. Joe's and CHS. Sending my deepest condolences during this difficult time. I pray the love and strength of your family and friends support you during this difficult time. God Bless.
