Caleb Keith Obituary

KEITH Caleb Jordan Keith, 18, went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, April 12, 2015. Caleb was a life long resident of Jacksonville and attended Seacoast Christian Academy, where he played football and Eunice Christian School. At the age of 12, he began working in lawn care and started his company, Big Dogg Lawn Care for the past 6 years. He also worked as a warehouseman at W.W. Gay Mechanical Contractor, Inc. Caleb was a loving, kind, compassionate young man and would do anything for anybody. He loved being outdoors, mudding, the smell of freshly cut grass and FORD trucks. He would turn opportunities into profit. Caleb's grandfather, Cecil F. Keith, Jr. in 2011 and his uncle, Cecil F. Little Cecil Keith, III in 1964 preceded him in death. Survivors include his parents, Jeff & Kim Keith; sister, Emily Keith; grandmother, Betty Keith; girlfriend, Faye Oneal; several aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. A celebration of life service will be held at 12:00 PM on Thursday, April 16, 2015 at North Jacksonville Baptist Church, with Rev. Andy Jackson, officiating.

Rest Easy Caleb. You will be missed Big Dogg. Everytime I ride dirt roads and go mudding I think about you bubba. My prayers go out to the family and friends of the lost loved one.

Two years ago our family joined North Jax Baptist Church. Our teen daughter didn't know anyone, but Caleb spoke to her as if he had always known her. He was her first friend at church. That always stood out to me, that he was so friendly to us. My heart is heavy for your family. You did a wonderful job raising Caleb, he was a fine young man. Our prayers are with you in the days ahead. With our deepest sympathy - Jenifer & Madison Polly
