DANIEL KEATING, AGE 36
And a resident of Franklinton passed away Friday evening June 6, 2025 at North Oaks Medical Center. He went by the nickname "Big D" and "Deebo" to those close to him. Daniel was a heavy equipment operator for Creel Brothers for several years and he loved spending time in the outdoors. He enjoyed fishing and listening to his favorite music. He also enjoyed hanging out with his friends, at cookouts, parties or any other occasion. Daniel loved spending time with his family, often going camping at neaby state parks or on their beach vacations each year. He liked to play with his young bulldog "Baby Boy". Most of all, Daniel loved his wife and little girls and cherished all the time they spent together.
