Justin "Scott" Keese's Obituary
Justin Scott Keese, 49, was born on January 5, 1973, in Fort Worth, Texas to Edith Janette and John Robert "Bob" Keese. He met and married Deanna Ford, the love of his life in 1999, 22 years was not near enough. Scott shocked everyone by what an amazing father he was, they had 2 beautiful children together, Lucas and Noah who will desperately miss their Daddy. Scott and Deanna were also foster parents off and on for 16 years serving children in need.
Scott enjoyed shooting and was a homeschool shooting team coach for 2 years. He began competition shooting at the young age of 7, and even qualified for the Olympics as an alternate during his teen years. Scott loved everything engineering and coached his son's Robotics Team, which brought him great joy.
In the end, Scott was a warrior and fought hard. Some might say he lost his final battle, but he knew that he was either going to come home with us, or home to his Savior and in his words “what better place to be”?! Scott’s life was changed forever when he was saved and, though not perfect, he lived his life to glorify God.
Scott wanted a BBQ Celebration instead of formal services because he truly wanted everyone to celebrate his life, and his salvation where he can now spend eternity in heaven. Please help us honor him by joining us for the BBQ, though everyone is welcome at visitation and the graveside service as well.

Scott's favorite color was purple, please feel free to wear your purple attire. Also, casual is fine or business casual at most, do not feel like you need to dress up. In fact, if it's Saturday please dress for the weather. Also, if you're coming to the graveside be prepared to stand, or feel free to bring your own chair (it's allowed).
