A natural problem-solver and a community builder, Keagan embodied the values of service and selflessness passed down through his family.

While transporting vehicles with his young daughter, Keagan stopped to assist on a freeway in Grand Rapids, Michigan. While outside his truck, he was struck and killed by a speeding, distracted 18-year-old driver traveling over 80 mph. His 16-month-old daughter witnessed the incident from the cab.
