Not sure what to say?

I´m the great niece of Maurice and Rubye Keathley. I remember coming to Memphis with my mom Mary Ruth and my grandparents Curtis and Mary Tate. I used to play with Gwynne and Todd when we were little. I´m so sorry to hear about Roy´s passing.

Heartfelt condolences to the family on the loss of a great man. Keep those fond memories close to your hearts.

I worked at Keathley´s many years ago. Carmen hired me. I worked under Joe Franks and Jewell Davis. Loved eating at the restaurant across the street.Keathley´s Pie´s were wonderful pecan ,coconut and the brownies. Although Roy wasn´t around the bakery all the time he was a familiar face. Condolences to the family.

Fond childhood memory, eating at Keathley's. Grew up on New York St. So sorry for your loss!
