Celebrating the Life of Raymond E. Keck

Raymond E. Keck (73) passed away at his residence on February 7, 2018 in Waynesville, Ohio.

Ray was born in Knoxville, Tennesse and later lived in New Tazewell, Tennesse as well as Dayton, Ohio. He was a 1963 graduate of Patterson Co-operative High School, Dayton, Ohio.

Ray's biggest love was family and grandchildren and spending time with friends. He enjoyed boating, flying, and had a special interest in cars. He was the greatest story teller of memories of friends and family and we will dearly miss his infectious laugh.
