Keaton Allison Obituary

Keaton Tyler Allison, beloved son, brother, nephew and

cousin, went to be with the Lord on April 14, 2017, in

Phoenix Arizona. He was born in Colorado Springs, Colorado on July 2, 1995.



Keaton graduated from Cheyenne Mountain High School in 2014. He was on the Hockey team, golf team, and volleyball team. After graduation, he attended College at Grand

Canyon University in Phoenix Arizona where he was seeking a Bachelor of Business Degree. He was finishing his Junior year.



Family, friends, The Young Life Organization and Church Community were extremely important to him. He was a man of God and devoted his life to serving others. He used every moment as an opportunity to share his love for Jesus with anyone he came into contact with. While attending college he worked for Dutch Bro's Coffee which was another outlet that he could share his faith, spread the word and reach out to others. He was a Young Life Leader for O'Connor High School in Arizona, he also spent time weekly with the refugee kids near his school. He loved the outdoors where he would fish, hunt, hike, camp, golf, play sand volleyball, and snowboard.



He leaves behind to cherish his memory, his parents Tyler and Jan, his best friend and loving sister Shelbe, grandparents Ben and Lorraine Underwood & Gordon and Nedra Allison, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.



The Celebration of Keaton's Life service will take place on May 15th, 2017, at 10:00am and will be held at the Woodmen Valley Chapel located at 290 Woodmen Rd, Colorado Springs, CO 80919

Tyler, Jan and Shelbe, I have so many wonderful memories of sweet Keatie. I was so honored and blessed to watch him grow into a fine young man. He was truly a wonderful reflection of the love you all gave him. He had such a beautiful soul. I will miss him and his sweet smile but I know he is watching over all of us now and that gives me peace. Tyler and Jan, I just wanted to say one more thing, probably couldn't say it enough. You two raised a fine young man. He had such a good heart and he will always be in mine. Thank you for sharing him with us all. Aunt Jen

A Great Group
