Keith Richard MacDonald

Keith Richard MacDonald, beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, sibling, and friend, passed away on November 14, 2024 at the Drayton Valley Long Term Care facility. He was born on September 13, 1950, in Athabasca, Alberta, to Keith Sr. and Eva MacDonald, who predeceased him.

Keith's legacy is carried on by his loving wife, Terry MacDonald, and his devoted children: Tina (Spencer) Beach, Dani (Stephen) Carpenter, Bryanne MacDonald, April (Barry) Osborne, and Melissa Bates. He found immense joy in the company of his grandchildren, including Eric and Chelsea Morton, Blake and Nicholas Carpenter, Amber Beach, Aiden Beach, Cheyanne Chrysler, Zach Goerz, and Rhys Linde. His heart was further warmed by the presence of his great-grandchildren, Amora Desjarlais, Akadius Desjarlais, and Brier Goerz.
