In Loving Memory

With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Kitty Keating on Friday July 17th, 2026. She was our beloved mother, proud grandmother, sister, loving aunt, great-aunt and dear friend. She shared a lifetime of memories with her three sisters. She lived a life defined by compassion, resilience, humor and unwavering devotion to the people she loved. With her quick wit and infectious sense of humor, she had a remarkable gift for making everyone around her feel welcomed, valued and cared for. 

She loved sharing stories from her younger, adventurous years, delighting family with tales that reflected her free spirit and love of life. The memories she created and the stories she told will be cherished for generations to come.

Throughout her career, she wore many hats, but one thing remained constant; she dedicated her life to helping others. Her compassion, work ethic, and caring heart left a lasting impression on anyone fortunate enough to know her. 

After courageously battling illness for the past 4 years, she never allowed it to define who she was. She faced every challenge with determination, grace and remarkable strength, defying the odds time and time again. She remained a fighter until the very end, inspiring everyone around her.

She will be reunited in Heaven with her loving parents Katie and John and dear brother Johnny. While our hearts are heavy with her absence, we find comfort in knowing she is finally at peace. She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered always. Her legacy lives on in the love she shared, through her thoughtfulness and the countless lives she touched. She will be remembered by her generous heart, her laughter and the kindness she gave so freely. 

A Mass will be held in honor of Kitty Keating
at St. Colman church at 11 AM Wednesday July 22nd. Visitation will be held from 10 AM to 11 AM prior to the Mass.

    She will be missed by all who knew her. She loved planting flowers in her garden and loved to read. I will miss the good times we had together. RIP

    My heart is so heavy with this news. We shared a special bond for many years, all starting from the most unexpected beginning when she responded to a Groupon for reflexology. From that day forward, we stayed close. She always knew how to make me laugh, loved her family fiercely, and was the true definition of a dedicated friend. She was an angel on Earth, and now she is an angel in heaven. Rest in peace, my dear friend.

    Kitty was an extraordinary and beautiful friend, whose remarkable qualities are difficult to fully capture in words. Our friendship began in first grade at St Colman’s, and from that moment, she brought seventy years of love, care, and mostly laughter into my life. The memories we made together started in those early days andr continued to grow throughout the decades. The gift of her friendship and the moments we shared are a blessing. I will always treasure them. Thank you, Kitty, for all the memories.

    Kitty,,,,,one of the first friends I met when we moved to the neighborhood on my 4th birthday. We shared so many adventures back then, some good – some not so good..but all memories that we frequently visited and laughed about when we got together. We had so much fun. I’ll miss you, my friend, and the birthday cards you always remembered to send. Rest in peace and love.

    I’m so sorry to learn of Kitty’s passing. I haven’t run into any of the other sisters so I didn’t realize she had been so ill. Thoughts and prayers for all of you.
