March 25, 1974 — October 28, 2026

Eric Duane Keller, cherished and beloved by all who knew him, was born on March 25, 1974, on the serene Vashon Island in Washington. He passed away peacefully at home on October 28, 2026, after a courageous battle with cancer, surrounded by the love of his family. Eric was the devoted husband of Sheri Keller, with whom he shared a bond that was an inspiring testament to love and partnership. Together, they raised two wonderful children, Brandon and Kerrie, who were the pride and joy of Eric's life. Eric found happiness in the simple act of creating and repairing alongside his family. A man of remarkable strength and unwavering spirit, Eric faced his illness with the same courage and determination that defined his life. He fought valiantly, never losing hope, and his resilience was a testament to his character. Though his battle has ended, Eric's spirit remains vibrant, and he is now at peace, united in the embrace of his beloved parents and grandparents in Heaven. Eric is survived by his loving wife, Sheri, and his cherished children, Brandon and Kerrie. His legacy continues through his six beautiful grandchildren, Max, Piper, Spencer, Lily, Bryson, and Dougie, who brought an abundance of joy and laughter into his life. He is also survived by his sisters, Carla and Farrah, his adoring nieces, Haylee, Breanna, and Sydney, as well as his nephews, Kyle, Tyler and Trevor. The family will hold him close in their hearts, remembering his warmth, kindness, and the love he so generously shared. His family has chosen to honor Eric's life with a private ceremony, where they will gather to celebrate the profound impact he had on their lives. The family wishes to share a special message in his memory: "Those we love don’t go away. They walk beside us every day—unseen, unheard, but always near." In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Eric's memory to a cancer research organization of your choosing, in hope of a future where others might be spared such a battle. Eric's life was a testament to love, resilience, and the power of family. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who had the privilege to know him. May his soul find eternal peace.
