Allen Keitz Obituary

Allen Sid Keitz, of Taylor Mill, KY, passed away on Friday, February 16, 2024, at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Ft. Thomas, KY at the glorious age of 89.

He was born in Covington, KY on April 11, 1934. Allen loved to work and was the proud producer and director for WCPO Channel 9 in Cincinnati. In his spare time, Allen enjoyed working around his house and taking pride in his home. He also loved going to the beach, especially Daytona Beach, FL. His greatest joy, however, was spending time with his family whom he cherished deeply.

Preceding Allen in death was his loving wife of 66 years, Beverly Keitz; his daughter, Deborah Keitz and his son, William Keitz.

Those left surviving to carry on Allen’s memory include his children, Rick (Pam) Keitz, Patti Keitz and Michael “Mike” (Cassandra) Keitz; 9 grandchildren; 6 great-grandchildren; as well as many other close relatives and friends who are now emptier upon his passing.

A visitation celebrating Allen’s life will be held on Monday, February 26, 2024, from 11:00 AM until 1:00 PM at Floral Hills Funeral Home, 5336 Old Taylor Mill Road, Taylor Mill, KY 41015. Allen will then be reunited and laid to rest next to his wife at Floral Hills Memorial Gardens Cemetery.
