Obituary for Terrence Keating

Terrence Patrick Keating, age 73 of Westerville, Ohio died Wednesday, January 23rd, 2019.

Terry is survived by his loving wife of 50 years Ruth, sisters Kathy, Fran (Michael) Palmer, sister-in-law Carol, children Patrick (Julie), Kim (Mark) Smith, Karl (Heather), Karen (Eric) Rachuba, and Tim (Jenni), 12 grandchildren, and a large extended family. Proceeded in death by his brother Jim, parents Walter and Rita, father-in-law James Elliott and brothers-in-law Mike Elliott and Mark Rumble.

Terry worked at Lucent for 46 years. He was passionately restoring his 1960 Corvette. Aside from tickling his grandchildren, his other hobbies include working frustratingly on his golf game and being ‘THE’ University of Dayton basketball team’s number one fan. You could find him every Saturday washing the cars or mowing the lawn in shorts (regardless of the weather) or sharing a burger with Ruth at Time and Change on Sundays.
