Daniel Howard Keeler

October 13, 1961 - July 23, 2020

Daniel Howard Keeler, a generous and loving husband and father, went to heaven Thursday, July 23, 2020, surrounded by his family. Daniel, 58, of Charlotte, was born October 13, 1961 in Saginaw, MI. He graduated from Eaton Rapids High School in 1979. On January 15, 1988 Daniel married Diane Radley and started their legacy together. Daniel worked as a Foreman at Douglas Steel, retiring after 25 years. He could always be found working in the yard or in his garage, working with steel, restoring bikes, or coming up with new projects. Daniel could fix just about anything. He was an unforgettable man who could always make others laugh. Daniel's greatest joy in his life was his wife Diane and his three children. He will be remembered by his family and friends for being a funny, caring, loving man that never gave up, even when faced with impossible obstacles. When Daniel was not working in his garage, he enjoyed riding motorcycles and spending time with his family. His house was always the fun house and loved having his children and friends around. He could always be found listening to music and drinking a margarita. Daniel is survived by his wife of 32 years, Diane; children, Sara (Nick) Stadtmiller, Jessica Keeler, Hannah Coker; 1 grandson, Willam Coker; mother, Loretta (Harry) Meersma; siblings, Anna (Jeff) Hicks, Becky (Arne) Wadenstierna, Josh (Misti) Meersma; multiple nieces and nephews; and caring neighbors and friends. He was predeceased by his sister, Cheryl Reikowski. Friends are encouraged to support Daniel's family.
