Michael Patrick Keefe passed away peacefully on December 1, 2023 at the age of 66 after a courageous battle with cancer. He leaves behind his beloved wife of 38 years, Beth Myers and his adoring children Paige (Mattie Moore) and Ben. He is survived by his sister Maggie Keefe (Scott Bleser), his brothers Kevin (Jill), Tim (Lynn Mahony), Dan, and his brother-in-law Rusty Myers (Pam), as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and grand nieces and nephews. Mike was preceded in death by his parents Charles Gerard and Marylee McDevitt Keefe, his beloved sister Kathy Montgomery, and his niece Kelley Keefe.

Mike's quick wit, friendship and kindness will be missed by all who knew him. Mike was devoted to his family, and while Paige and Ben were growing up, he could be found poolside (officiating or cheering them on) or on the sidelines for the many sports and activities which seemed to be a constant in his life. In later years, he continued to cheer for Paige and Ben in all phases of their lives. In addition to his family, Mike was blessed with devoted friends, some of whom shared his passion for golf. In addition to golf, Mike enjoyed cheering on the Bearcats and Bengals, traveling, spending time in Florida and just hanging out with friends.

Visitation will be on Sunday December 10 from 2-5 pm at Gilligan Funeral Home, Kenwood. Mass of the Christian Burial will be held on Monday December 11 at 10 am at Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Montgomery.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to New Life Furniture Bank, the University of Cincinnati Foundation, or the Seger Family Natatorium at the Always an Aviator Fund at the Greater Cincinnati Foundation*.
