William "Keith" Harvey, Jr.

He resided with his family in Pittsburgh during his early years attaining an abundance of awards and achievements from his elementary and middle school education. Keith relocated to Phoenix, Arizona in 1990 and spent the remainder of his childhood with his father and stepmom, Beverly Harvey. He continued his educational achievements by graduating from South Mountain High School, attending the University of Arizona to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, and later changing his degree preference to Business Administration at Walden University.

Keith’s personable and compassionate character ensured his success in his role as an Education Administrator at both Walden University and the University of Miami. This success advocated his recent goals of entrepreneurship opportunities as a life coach and in project management. He had a strong passion to help others- he loved people! God blessed him with the ability to express affection and devotion to others.

Keith was baptized in Pittsburgh at Mount Ararat Baptist Church on April 3, 1988. His highly spiritual nature was recognized by his great love of life, his positive attitude, and his infectious laugh. His big smile would light up a room because brightness illuminated his presence. His main passion was the love he had for his family and friends. He left his mark on all he encountered. Music and singing were a big part of his life. He enjoyed his weed, drinking his favorite drink, a margarita, laughing, and just being “Big Happy!”

On Sunday, December 4, 2022, Keith departed this earthly life leaving a great void in the lives of all who loved him.

His beautiful life will forever be cherished in the lives of his fiancé, Marcus Lujan of Phoenix, AZ, mother Teresa E. Douglass (Billy), of Pittsburgh, PA, his father William K. Harvey, Sr. (Beverly), of Las Vegas, NV, four sisters: Teah Harvey, of San Diego, CA, Monique McLaughlin of Phoenix, AZ, Keisha E. Riley (Erik) of Milwaukee, WI and Desiree Phillips of Pittsburgh, PA, along with five nieces, four nephews and a host of other loving family members and dear friends.

Matthew 11:28, Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavily laden, and I will give you rest.
