Keith Kyle McCuen, 76, of Colfax died Wednesday, Oct. 2, 2013, at Iowa Methodist Medical Center in Des Moines. A celebration of life was held Oct. 12 at the Prairie City Community room. In lieu of flowers, memorials will be accepted in Keith’s name. Condolences may be left for the family at www.coburnfuneralhomes.com.

The son of Carm and Ruth (McDaniels) McCuen, Keith was born Jan. 4, 1937, south of Prairie City. In July of 1956, he married Margie Kendall in Prairie City. Keith worked for D.O.T. for over thirty years. Keith enjoyed fixing things in his garage, mowing, planting his garden-especially potatoes. He also loved to pop popcorn and he grilled the best hamburgers. He really liked old AC tractors. But Keith’s greatest love was his family, especially his grandkids.

Those left to honor his memory include his wife, Margie; children, Kyle (Paula) McCuen of Montezuma, Kevin (Teresa) McCuen of Hartford, LuAnne (Don) Steenhoek of Reasnor, and Leona (Jeff) Lewis of Baxter; 11 grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; a brother, Larry McCuen of Missouri; a sister, Betty (Chuck) Kartchner also of Missouri; and several nieces and nephews. Preceding him in death were his parents; three brothers, Kenneth, Dwaine and Harley Dale at birth. ~ The Jasper County Tribune, Oct 2013
