Christopher Stephen Keithley, 31, was born January 5, 1994, in Pordenone, Italy. He passed away on October 10, 2025, doing what he loved—-riding his motorcycle.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Steve and Paula Keithley and Patrick Wright; as well as his uncle, Ray Wright.

Chris is survived by his daughters, Aunnabelle Ann Keithley and Aurora Scott Keithley; and their mother, Emily Bean; his parents, Steve and Judy Wright Keithley; a sister, Elizabeth Keithley; brother, Justin Keithley; nephew, Nathanial Harbin; his niece, Liliauna Keithley; grandmother, Mary Ann Wright; and many dear friends and extended family who loved him deeply.

Chris was a hardworking and devoted father who poured his heart into raising his two daughters. He was employed at Swedish Match. In his free time, Chris enjoyed motorcycle riding, music, and gaming with his many friends. Known for being very loyal and to-the-point honest, he was always there for those he cared about and will be greatly missed by Tyler Mattingly and Raghav Goyal. His greatest joy, however, came from spending time with his girls, Aunnabelle and Aurora, who were the center of his world. He also loved his beloved dogs, Cliff and Hulk.

Chris will be remembered for his kind heart, his honesty, his loyalty, and the love he showed to his family and friends.

The funeral service for Chris will be held at 10 a.m. Thursday, October 16, 2025, at Glenn Funeral Home and Crematory with Pastor Tim Hall officiating. Burial to follow in St. Mary of the Woods Cemetery. Visitation will be held on Wednesday from 3 until 7 p.m. and on Thursday from 9 a.m. until time of the service at the funeral home.
