Larhuel Shontez Keys

March 29, 1979 — March 11, 2019

"My Story"

The dictionary defines the word "death" as the end of life for a person; however; I LaRhuel Shontez Keys assure you that I am both alive and well in the magnificent Kingdom of Heaven. It is due to my strong faith in Christ that I am able to feel the warm embrace of my Lord and Savior in His Kingdom. And on this day, you have gathered here to share in this joyous moment by commemorating my amazing journey here on Earth ... This is my story.

I departed this life on March 11, 2019, at the age of 39 years old. I leave to mourn my passing and cherish my memories, my father, Rhuel T. Philpot, Sr.; Stepmom, Teresa Philpot Franklin; Big Sis Tanisha Keys "Laneetha"; sister, Tujwania Bass Sanders, Brother, Rhuel T. Philpot, Jr., grandfathers, Wesley Keys and George Gay, Jr.; nieces and nephews, Shawn Keys, Nataysha Keys, Ednisha Johnson English, Leontae Johnson, Deontae Johnson, LuShawn W.

"It's My Turn"

One day I'm going away
to the Maker who made me
Hallelujah Jesus!
Locked up inside of me
I remember when we use to
laugh; I remember when we
use to cry; so don't you cry,
oh don't you cry;
it's my turn
so just let me go I have all
your memories so when I go just
say goodbye
Hallelujah Jesus!
Let me go.

Written by his mother the
late Sally Ann Keys
