Obituary of Keith William Henry

Keith Henry, 84, passed away peacefully on May 8, 2025, in Elk Grove, California. Born
on July 8, 1940, in Pontiac Michigan, Keith lived a full and meaningful life rooted in
family, faith, and community.

Keith was a devoted family man whose greatest joy came from spending time with his
loved ones. He is survived by his wife, Raquel Henry, and his five children – Brian, Jeff,
Martha, Patricia, and Manuel – who carry forward his legacy of love and dedication. He
also leaves behind eight grandchildren and four great-grandchildren who brought him
immense pride and happiness. Keith is also survived by his siblings: sisters Ronnie and
Sandy, and brother Pat.

He was preceded in death by his first wife, Barbara, his parents, Leroy and Fern; and
his brother Darryl.

A man of deep faith, Keith was an active member of St. Joseph Catholic Church in Elk
Grove, California. His commitment to service extended through his involvement with
the Knights of Columbus, where he found fellowship and purpose in supporting
charitable works and parish life.

Keith had a passion for woodworking – a craft that allowed him to express both
creativity and precision. Some of his pieces live on inside the St. Joseph Church. He
also cherished attending car shows with his son Jeff, sharing a mutual appreciation for
classic automobiles that created lasting memories between them.
