He was known as the "Wizard Of Larwill St."; He mostly loved spending time with his family and friends and had a deep faith in God. He was a member of St. Nicholas Byzantine Catholic Church and was a member of the choir. He was a great dad for not only his own children, but to others needing a good role model to all those that he came into contact with.
In addition to his beloved wife, Gladys, he is survived by his children, Adric (Elaine Miller) Keegan of Wooster, Therese (Keith) Todorov of Orrville, Cena Grace (Andrew) Burns and Megan (Jacob) Rohr all of Wooster; his grandchildren, Brianna, Braylon, Anthony, Caleb and expecting "Baby Todorov" very soon; a great-grandchild, Julius; his brothers and sisters, Andy, John, Mike, Colleen, Mo and Bob; numerous nieces, nephews a host of friends including his best friends, Jerry Grassman, John "Pops" Dickerson; his faithful canine companion, "Jasper" and his feline companions, "Bean", "Patches" and "Euthymia" and "Thea".

Visitation for family and friends will be an hour and a half (9:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.) prior to services on Wednesday at the church. The family will receive visitors in church but asks that it be done with quiet voices and reverence as there will be others in church praying.

Some my lifetime greatest memories were spent with the Keegan family, especially with Mo and Pat. Pat was a dear friend who always has had a piece of my heart. When I think of Pat, I think of fun and happiness. He was kind, understanding, non-judgemental, funny, brilliant and one of best partners in crime I ever had. Pat graced me with his presence on my wedding day by walking me down the aisle. I am thankful to have had Pat in my life.
