Thomas Keen Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Erickson Funeral Home, Ltd. - Darlington on Feb. 16, 2026.
Thomas John Keen, age 74, of Argyle, Wisconsin, passed away at his home on February 14, 2026. Born on September 10, 1951, in Monroe, Wisconsin, Thomas was the beloved son of Kenneth John Keen and Doris Mae (Layman) Keen.
Thomas grew up and attended school in Juda, Wisconsin, graduating from Juda High School. He dedicated his life to farming and agriculture, a passion that was deeply rooted in his family and upbringing. He worked on the family farm in Juda before moving to rural Argyle, where he continued his life's work in agriculture. Thomas's love of the land and dedication to farming was matched only by his enjoyment of riding horses with the Saddle Club of Darlington, and he cherished the time spent with his younger sisters.
He is survived by his sisters, Sandra (Lonnie) Hatcher of Evans, GA, Deb (Roger) Timmerman of Dickeyville, WI, and Donna (Brian) Bredeson of Darlington, WI, his nephews Ryan (Jordan) Mosley, Cody (Courtney) Bredeson, Grant (Kailey Wirth) Garvey, and nieces Kristy (Shaun Schaaf) Kieffer, Michelle (Justin) Monson, Alissa (Joe) Burbach, as well as Troy (Shannon) Timmerman and Rob (Rhonda) Timmerman. He was cherished by good friends Mark and Ruby Butson.
Thomas was preceded in death by his parents; and his special cousin, Linda Wolfe.
In keeping with Thomas's wishes, there will be no formal services. He will be laid to rest at Mt. Vernon Cemetery in Juda, Wisconsin with a celebration of life to follow. The Erickson Funeral Home in Darlington is serving the family. Online condolences may be expressed to the family at www.ericksonfuneralhome.com.
