Francis DeSales Keck II Obituary
We are sad to announce that on December 13, 2023 we had to say goodbye to Francis DeSales Keck II (Champaign, Illinois). You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As Francis departs from our midst, his spirit ascends to join the cosmic dance of stars, a shimmering constellation of memories that will forever grace the night sky of the hearts of those who loved Francis. Though Francis may no longer walk beside us, his legacy lives on — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of time and space.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Charles E. Keck of Keck's Furniture and Edith Louise Lambert Keck; his wife Kathe; and his sisters, Margie Wikoff McCabe and Charlotte Johnson.
He is survived by: his children, Kimberly Weinstein (Mark) of Mercer Island, WA, Frank III of Shawnee, KS, Thomas (Antoinette) of La Jolla, CA and Lucy (Michael) of Anda. He is also survived by eleven grandchildren, and one great-granddaughter.
Frank had a very spiritual heart and a firm belief in the Episcopal faith, and donated a new installation of stained glass windows in the Emmanuel Church in Champaign as a memorial to his family.
