Christopher Keller

Christopher Dale Keller, 51 years of age, a resident of Cleveland, TN

It is with great sadness that we mourn the loss of our beloved Chris. He entered into his heavenly home in the early morning hours of September 5th, which ironically is the same day he entered this world in 1973.

He leaves behind to cherish his memory: mother Cathy (Randy) Morrow, father Alan (Miriam) Keller, loving Mamaw Dorthy Keller, sister Allison Blankenship, brothers Ethan Keller and Nicholas Morrow, nieces and nephews Skyler, Jaxon, Arianna, Sophie, Kristopher, Liam, and Haisley. A special daughter who he loved so much, Ashley Foster and the two beautiful granddaughters she gave him, Kahlia and Irene. Michael Biddy, a lifelong friend who was more like his brother. Aunts Kerrie (Tony) Jones and Lisa (Jay) Dunbar who were by his side growing up since they were not much older than him. Several aunts, uncles, cousins and extended family.

Chris's personality brought warmth and joy to everyone he encountered, and his passing will be mourned deeply by everyone who knew and loved him. His memory will remain in the hearts of his family, friends, and all those who were honored to have had the privilege of knowing him.

He grew up with his cousins by his side and enjoyed playing baseball, hunting, fishing and riding motorcycles. His love for motorcycles continued into adulthood so on warm and sunny days you could find him cruising around. He loved watching football even though he didn't have a favorite team.

The ones that passed before him will be there to welcome him home, his Mamaw Shirley Lemons who loved him unconditionally, Papaw Jimmy Keller and Harold Lemons. Aunt Nancy Cornish, Uncle Jack Lemons, Cousin Jeremy Haddock and brother in love Kris Blankenship.

A celebration of life service will be held on Wednesday, September 11, 2024 at Companion Funeral Home - The Ridge Chapel at 7:00 pm with Pastor Gary Nelson officiating. The family will be receiving friends from 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm prior to the service.

A graveside service will be held on Thursday, September 12, 2024 at 9:00 am at Sunset Memorial Gardens with Michael Biddy, Chris Becker, Jamie Womac, Brian Beaty, Jaxon Blankenship and Josh Keller serving as pallbearers.

You are invited to share a personal memory of Chris or your condolences with his family at his online memorial located at www.companionfunerals.com. Companion Funeral Home of Cleveland and the Cody family are honored to assist the family with these arrangements.
