With deep sadness and a profound sense of loss, we share the passing of our beloved
mother, Carole Keeton. She died peacefully at her home in Austin, Texas, surrounded by
family. Mom accomplished so much in life on behalf of others because she cared deeply
about making a difference and improving the lives of families and individuals from all
walks. Her tireless dedication and ability to get things done were unmatched. She stood
firm on principle, always focused on what was best for those she served and doing the right
thing the right way. She was a trailblazer for women, embodying the best of public service
and inspiring younger generations to serve.
Above all, she was a loving mother and grandmother who always put her family first. She
cherished every moment with family, especially her nine grandchildren.
We are grateful for the support and kind words during this difficult time. Your memories of
our mother our children’s grandmother bring us comfort and remind us of the remarkable
person she was and the many lives she touched.
A private family service will be held, and a public memorial will be organized within a
couple of months to commemorate her life and what she meant and accomplished for so
many Austinites and Texans.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers
