IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Donald Ray
Keatley
December 1, 1942 – January 21, 2024
Donald Ray Keatley, 81, of Fort Myers, Florida passed away on January 21, 2024.
Donald, fondly known as 'Don', 'Bubba', 'Grandpa' and 'Poppa', was born in Charleston, West Virginia. He graduated from West Virginia University with both a Bachelor's of Science in Mathematics and a Master's of Industrial Relations and Human Resources. He served as a Captain in the United States Air Force and then worked his entire professional career for GE. He met his wife, Carol, in St. Albans, West Virginia and they married on July 2, 1973. Don loved his family more than anything, and cherished his many close friends. He was incredibly proud of his two sons. Don spent much of his free time doing construction projects for friends and family, repairs around the house for Carol, and rooting for his favorite sports teams. Don will be remembered as having a great sense of humor and as someone who could be counted on for giving sound advice.
Don was preceded in death by his parents, father Ray Henry Keatley and mother Dorothy Louise Brady Keatley. He is survived by his beloved wife, Carol Sue Keatley, his two sons, Brad Keatley (wife, Summer Keatley) and Mark Keatley (wife, Lindsey Keatley), and his grandchildren, Sadie Keatley, Cade Keatley and Cameron Keatley.
