Louis KEEFE Obituary

Very very sad to hear of Lou's passing. Remembered for the cheeky smile, telling a good yarn, and the devotion to his beautiful wife and kids. Elaine, my dear, a big enormous hug for you Tash, Rachel, Dan and family.

Our thoughts are with you all at this very sad time. Lou was such a happy, funny, helpful, fun person & loved to dance! All our Love, Paul & Nicola

Our deepest sympathies for your loss. We fondly remember Lou from his involvement with Irish Dancing.

A Smile, A Laugh, A Face we will never forget. Taken too soon, you will be dearly missed. Love to Elaine and Family. Love The Russell's and Game's.

Deepest sympathy to the Keefe family. I will remember Lou as the generous guy with the big smile who always went the extra mile whether it be giving a lift to work while he fixed the car for a wof, or simply making time to chat. A huge loss to the community.
