Keith J. Courtney, age 59, of West Long Branch, NJ passed away April 21st after a battle with cancer that unfortunately took him too soon.

Keith is survived by his parents, John & Margaret Courtney, his sons Stephen, Eric and Connor, his granddaughter Ashlyn, his sister Lynn, his brothers Kevin and Glenn, his brother-in-law Paul O’Shaughnessy, his sisters-in-law Suzanne and Linda, nephews John and David, and nieces Claire, Chelsea and Jessica.

He will always be remembered for his love of his family and friends as well as his dedication to his job at New Jersey Natural Gas, where he was an employee for over 40 years. Keith loved being outdoors whether it was dirt biking in the pine barrens or taking an annual canoe trip down the Delaware River with his close friends and family.  With a laugh larger than life itself, he always had a smile and a joke at the ready no matter what life threw at him.  He was a fan of the New York Giants and the Ohio State Buckeyes, and of course the Grateful Dead.

Visitation will be held on Monday, April 25, 2022, from 4pm-7pm, at the Woolley-Boglioli Funeral Home, 10 Morrell Street, Long Branch with a service scheduled for 6:45 pm.

In lieu of traditional remembrances, the family asks with gratitude that memorial contributions in Keith’s name be made to Cancer Research Institute; www.cancerresearch.org.
