Terrell Alyn McConnell departed this world on July 8th, 2025, at the age of 45. Known for his infectious sense of humor and radiant smile, Terrell was a beacon of joy in his family's life.
Born on June 20, 1980, in
Tulsa, OK, to Terri Keys, Terrell brought immense happiness to his mother's life from the moment he arrived. In 1981, Leonard Keys entered his life, embracing Terrell as his own son and raising him with love and care.
Terrell discovered his passion for football at a young age, a love that carried him through his high school years at Memorial High School, where he graduated in 1999. His dedication and spirit on the field were matched only by the warmth and kindness he showed off it.
Terrell worked side by side with his parents as they worked to develop their rental properties and was a very dependable resource. Always willing to help and lend a hand where he could.
Terrell was preceded in death by his maternal Grandparents, Winfred Earl McConnell Sr. and Allie Mae McConnell, and his paternal Grandparents, Leonard Rider Keys Sr. and Elsa Faye Keys.
He leaves behind a loving family, including his parents Terri and Leonard Keys, his siblings Tierra Burgess (Andrew), Leonard Ryan Keys (Destiny), and Alyssa Boyd (Joseph). He is also survived by his cherished nieces Tyra, Taylor, and Tori, and nephews Isaiah, Humza, Andrew, and Khaire and a host of aunts, uncles and cousins.
