Keith Delaney Obituary

KEITH "ANDY" DELANEY

Florence, MA - Keith A. Delaney (Andy) 60, passed away at home on March 22, 2026. He was born to John B. and June L. (Martin) Delaney in Northampton on August 31, 1965. He graduated from Smith Vocational-Agricultural High School in 1984. Andy served 4 years in the U.S. Coast Guard and was honorably discharged in May 1996 earning numerous commendations. Andy was a talented small engine mechanic. He last worked with Fleury's Outdoor Power Equipment in Easthampton.

Andy was a generous man, often repairing machines for family and friends at no cost to them. With humor he might question when was the last time you checked the oil, or cleaned the air filter or what did you run over? He preferred to be the one giving rather than the one receiving. He had a quick wit and was a loyal friend. He enjoyed speed, motorcycle riding, and NASCAR races.

He leaves his mother June Delaney, his brother John Delaney and his wife Lorraine, his sister Barbara Preston and her husband Gary; 1 nephew Nicholas Matteson (Caroline) and 3 nieces Jennifer Delaney (Nate Contois), Shelbie Delaney (Nick Zaguta), and Dana Delaney. 3 great nephews Leo Matteson, John (Jack) Contois and Clayton Contois and a great niece Evelyn Contois. Andy loved his nephew, nieces, great nephews and great niece as if they were his own children. He was pre deceased by his father Jack Delaney and his niece Kerra Delaney Matteson.

An In-House service will be held Wednesday April 1, 2026 at 10:00am at Czelusniak Funeral Home followed by burial at St. Mary's Cemetery. Calling hours will be held Tuesday March 31st from 4:00pm to 6:00pm. Memorial contributions can be made to Cooley Dickinson VNA & Hospice, PO Box 329, Northampton, MA 01061-0329.
