Keith E. Huddleston

Keith Edward Huddleston, a man who lived life with passion and curiosity, passed away unexpectedly on November 22, 2024, at the age of 72. Born on May 8, 1952, to Carl and Gloria (Sparks) Huddleston, Keith grew up with a love for the outdoors, classic rock, a fascination for cars, and an adventurous spirit that led him to explore his home state of Ohio.

Keith’s greatest joy was his family. He was a devoted husband to Alice, his loving wife of 47 years, a proud father to his daughter Angel (Loren), and an adoring grandfather to Jalen (Allie), Cohen and Great grandfather to Anthony. His 2 grandsons held a special place in his heart and were often the recipients of his generous nature.

He is survived by his brother Danny (Debbie), sisters Lou Ann and Robin (Dale), Mary (Don), and extended family members who cherished his warmth and humor. He was preceded in death by his parents, his brother Larry, and sister-in-law Josie Bell.

Known for his dedication and tireless work ethic, Keith took pride in providing for his family. When he wasn’t working, he was happiest outdoors—working on cars, camping under the stars, casting a line while fishing, or taking scenic drives across Ohio. A lover of classic rock, good books, and great meals, Keith was always eager to discover something new. Keith’s life was a celebration of family, love, and exploration. He leaves behind a legacy of cherished memories. His presence will be deeply missed by those who knew and loved him.

In keeping with Keith’s adventurous spirit, the family asks that you honor his memory by taking a moment to enjoy a classic rock song, embark on a scenic drive, or try new food in his honor.

A gathering will be held to celebrate his life December 2nd, 2024 during the hours 1-3pm at Newcomer Chapel, 3047 E. Dublin Granville Rd. Columbus, OH.
