Keith D. Conley

Keith Dewitt Conley, 54, of Columbus, Ohio, passed away on March 29, 2026. He was born on April 15, 1971.

Keith was a loving, caring, funny, and strong man with a heart of gold. He was the kind of person whose presence could light up a room the moment he walked in. Always dancing, always joking, always finding a way to make someone smile, Keith brought joy wherever he went. His laughter was unforgettable, and his spirit was the kind you don’t come across often.

More than anything, Keith loved his family. He was a proud and devoted father to his children, Kiara Conley, Keith Conley, and Kristopher Conley (Christina Hess). They were his pride, his joy, and the reason behind so much of his strength and love.

He leaves behind his loving mother, Mary Johnson; siblings, Terrance Conley (Bettye), Erwin Conley, Rhonda Conley, William Brown, Jr., Jessie Brown, Matthew Brown, and Deon Brown (Carolyn Brown); girlfriend, Sherry Houston; and aunts, Joyce Johnson (Jay), Mona Conley, and Diane McCullough. He also leaves behind a host of nieces, nephews, and cousins who will forever carry his memory in their hearts.

Keith was preceded in death by his father, William Brown, Sr., Gerald Conley, Priscilla Conley, Alonzetta Conley, and Anthony Bush, Jr. welcoming him home with open arms.

The love Keith gave, the laughter he shared, and the memories he created will live on forever. Though our hearts are heavy and broken, we are grateful for every moment, every smile, every laugh we were blessed to have with him.

He was deeply loved, and he will be deeply missed more than words could ever truly express. His spirit will live on in every life he touched.
