To know Keighlie was to love her. She would do anything for anyone, put everyone before herself, would give the shirt off her back, never met a stranger and loved with all of her heart. She loved being a mother, and she did it so well. Keighlie found a passion in small town boutiques. She loved helping everyone find that perfect outfit for their special occasions. Her dream was to one day own a boutique of her own. Her beautiful blue eyes and contagious smile will be missed tremendously by all who loved her.
