Sunrise 12-29-1988 to Sunset 6-26-2020 Keion LaDon Bartee was born to Jacqueline Bartee and Kenneth Lavell Brown. Keion was a leader and a protector. He would go hard for his family and friends. One thing he enjoyed the most was having fun with his daughter, KJ. Keion adored the color blue and it was a big part of his life style. Keion had a spirit that would light up a room and make you look at him sometimes and question "Keion what are you talking about". This man, as strong as he was, at the end of the day was a true mama's boy.
Keion leaves to cherish his memory, his parents Jacqueline Bartee (Harold) Brown, and Kenneth L Brown; Step-Father Harold Brown; His daughter Katherine Jacqueline Bartee; siblings; Tiye R. Bartee, Wantay D. Bartee, Kimika C. Bartee, and Ebony Jones; Best friend William; Niece, Deondra Bartee; aunts and uncles Frank Bartee, Gwen Bartee, Andre Bartee, Jerry (Neva) Bartee, Ricky Bartee, James (Angela) Bartee, Yolonda Bartee and a host of family, friends, and cousins.
