Jeffrey's obituary
Jeffrey Richard Keiling, a devoted husband, father, and friend, passed away on December 17, 2025 at the age of 51. He was larger than life and someone who left a lasting impression on everyone he met. Often with a quick joke, a kind word, or an easy smile.
He was a proud veteran of the United States Marine Corps, a service that shaped his strong work ethic, discipline, and lifelong sense of responsibility. He ran two businesses: 50 East Remodeling and Madhaunter’s Madhouse. He believed in showing up, doing things the right way, and going the extra mile. He worked tirelessly to provide for and support his family, and he took great pride in knowing that his loved ones were taken care of. More than anything, he made sure his children knew they were capable of anything, as long as they were willing to work for it.
He had a rare gift for making people feel truly seen and valued. He could strike up a conversation anywhere and with anyone from a lifelong friend to a stranger at the gas station and leave them smiling. His humor filled even the simplest moments with laughter, turning everyday interactions into memories we will always cherish.
Jeff is survived by AmyLynn Keiling, his loving wife of 28 years, his children, Hailey and Shelby Keiling, his father, Richard Keiling and his brother, Greg Keiling. He was deeply loved and will be missed more than words can express.
His legacy lives on in the values he passed down: hard work, responsibility, kindness, and the belief that effort matters.
