Todd Anthony Keating

Todd A. Keating

OLMSTED TOWNSHIP – Todd Anthony Keating, 60, passed away on Nov. 7, 2023, at Fairview Hospital following a brief illness.

He was born in Cleveland, Ohio on April 25, 1963, the son of Francis and Janice (Kolenz) Keating.

Todd graduated from Padua High School in 1981.  Shortly after graduation Todd began a 40-year career working for the Cleveland Elevator Construction Union – Local 17.

He was always known as a hard worker and a man that would go above and beyond in everything he did in life; whether it be his work for the union, helping a friend in need, or hosting one of his many well planned parties.  He loved the outdoors and being one with nature; as well as being the lover of music.  At parties he was known to be one of the greatest “leg guitar” players of all time as his family and friends would say with a laugh.  He may have loved and enjoyed many things in life but there was no greater love in his life than the love he had for his three boys and his family.

He is survived by his loving family: his father Francis Keating; his three sons:  Steven (Nichole) Keating, Tom (his fiancée Brittany) Keating, and Ryan (his fiancée Kayla); his grandchildren Sylvia and Liam; his sister Teri (Michael) Kleinhenz; his loving companion Christine Maclean; his niece Mackenzie Keating and nephew Timothy Keating Jr.; and his former wife and dear friend Sharon Kelley-Keating.

He was preceded by his mother and his brother Tim.

A Catholic Mass will be celebrated on Saturday November 18, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. at St. Clarence Catholic Church, 30106 Lorain Road, North Olmsted.  A memorial luncheon and a time to celebrate Todd’s life will immediately follow from 11:00-3:00 at the church pavilion.  Memorial contributions can be made in his name to the church.

Just as Todd was always so willing to help anyone in need during his life, Todd continued giving even after his death through organ donation,  He and his legacy will continue to live on.
