Keith William Park

Keith William Park 69, of Conroe Texas passed away peacefully June 10th, 2026, at home surrounded by his family after a long and dignified battle with cancer. He lives on in each of us by the memories of him we hold in our hearts.

Keith was born to Sandra and Lynn Park December 21, 1956, in San Jose California. Although born in California, he lived most of his life in Texas as a proud and dedicated Texan.

He was a Christian, husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, cousin and friend. Completely devoted to his loved ones, Keith will be fondly remembered and his memory cherished by his wife Sharon, of the home, mother & stepfather Sandra and Cliff Vlasin of Conroe, daughters Amy Lynn Park of The Woodlands, and Jessica Ann Wilkes of Kingwood, sister Pati (Ed) Allen of Tomball, five grandchildren, Payton, Cammie, Knox, Emma and Wyatt. He loved and was loved by a great family of nieces, nephews and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his father, Lynn Park of San Jose, California and brother Bret Park of Houston.

Keith attended Aldine High School and Lone Star College, then began a career in international shipping. His life was interrupted by a long battle with throat cancer, and after recovering he began a career with United Rentals in Houston, where he worked until his retirement in 2024.

A man of many gifts and talents, Keith was an avid coastal fisherman. He loved to be on the water, especially at sunrise. He lived for his weekends at “Butler’s Cabin” with his friends; Mike Butler, Scott Roberts and Mike Chambers. He was a lifelong follower of auto sports, addicted to the sound, the speed, and the strategy involved in every venue from NASCAR to “World of Outlaws”.

He was also a master craftsman, working as a finish carpenter, and used his God-given skills to build beautiful cabinetry for family, friends, cousins, or virtually anyone who expressed a need. Every piece he made was done with his hands, his heart and his love.

A significant part of Keiths life was spent in West Texas. While living at the “home place”, he connected to a slower way of living. He looked forward to morning coffee with his cousins and friends at the coffee shop, family gatherings in the neon room, driving the dirt roads between town and J. Neal’s, and to the cemetery with Cisco to watch the sun set. He found his faith on those back roads and will be laid to rest where he felt most at home; buried next to his brother and eventually his parents; where his ancestors settled and have been laid to rest since the late 1800’s, in Roby Texas.

There will be a private graveside service held at a later date at the Roby Cemetery.
