Keith Folger Obituary

Visit the Ambrose Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Inc. - Arbutus website to view the full obituary.

Keith John Folger, age 66, passed away suddenly on June 2, 2025. He was born on January 16, 1959 to the late June Wishard and the late Edward Folger. He was the dear brother of Michael and Carolyn Folger (nee Riggin), Julia Smith (nee Blaney) and Greg Smith, and Bruce Blaney; cherished step-brother of Sue Wishard-Roberts and Bill Roberts; also survived by nieces Jennifer Vander Meulen (nee Folger), Jackie McGoun (nee Dilworth), nephew Vincent Dilworth, and several grandnephews and grandnieces.

Keith was a kind man who was always willing to help his family and friends. He loved attending family get togethers and made a point of visiting family members who were ill. When Keith was a young man he enjoyed refinishing antique furniture, especially wooden trunks. He had a deep love for cars, especially his old Chevy Nova and his Chevrolet Monte Carlo. Keith loved visiting Massachusetts and walking in the woods with his late uncle, Richard French. He was devoted to his dog, Penny and took her on numerous walks and car rides and spent most of his time with her. His warmth and kindness will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

A Celebration of Life will be held at Ambrose Funeral Home, 1328 Sulphur Spring Road, Halethorpe MD 21227 on Saturday, July 26 from 10-12pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Keith’s’ memory to the American Cancer Society, www.cancer.org.
