Keith Denmark Obituary

Keith Denmark, a dedicated mechanical engineer and beloved family man, was born on August 25, 1939, in Clearwater, Florida. He peacefully passed away on September 30, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love, faith, and cherished memories.

Keith's education was rooted in a pursuit of knowledge, earning a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. His career as a mechanical engineer was marked by a commitment to excellence and a passion for his work. However, it was his role as a family man that brought him the greatest joy. Keith was known for his kind, loving, and honest demeanor. He was deeply committed to his Christian faith, finding strength and guidance through reading the Bible and prayer.

His family was his pride and joy. Keith is survived by his daughter, Lori Elaine Denmark, and his grandsons, Greyson and Graham Denmark. He also leaves behind his son-in-law, Huey Brantley. Keith’s relationships with his family were filled with warmth and love; he cherished them above all else.

Keith is reunited in peace with his beloved wife, Mary Denmark, who predeceased him. He is also survived by loving memories of his parents, Carrie and Newton Denmark, and his late daughter, Clarissa Denmark. Additionally, he is remembered by his brother, Joe, and sisters, Winnie and Marie.

An outdoor enthusiast, Keith enjoyed canoeing, fishing, camping, and anything that brought him closer to nature. He found joy at the lake, home, and his church community. Among his favorite treats were apple pies and ice cream, which sweetened his simple pleasures.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate Keith's life at the Harpeth Hills Memory Garden, Funeral Home, & Cremation Center in Nashville, TN. A visitation will take place on October 10, 2025, starting at 1:30 PM, followed by a graveside service at 2:30 PM.

Keith Denmark will be remembered fondly for his loyalty, kindness, and unwavering faith. He touched the hearts of many and will be greatly missed.
