Keith Grant Deese

1960 ∼ 2023

Keith Grant Deese, 62, of Nederland, Texas joined his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on June 22, 2023. Keith was born on July 8, 1960 in Beaumont, Texas to Billy and Johnnie Deese.

Keith was preceded in death by his mother, Johnnie M. Glasscock and his father, Billy Grant Deese.

Keith is survived by his daughter Sara Womack and grandson Wesley Alvarez, daughter Cassie Womack and grandson Alejandro Womack-Martinez, son Derek Deese; uncle Jack Deese and wife Marie, sister Stacey R. Toman and husband James, brother Gary Deese and wife Rebecca.

After graduating from McCullough High School in 1979, Keith lived his life to the fullest. He spent many weekends burning up the dance floor at Johnny B Dalton's Dance Hall with friends. Keith enjoyed the outdoors, whether camping or boating. Keith had a passion for freshwater and saltwater fishing, sharing his talent with his brother and son.

'Cowboy Action Shoots' was another hobby he enjoyed with extended family. In his younger days, he loved anything with speed and was fearless in this respect leading him to race drag cars, drag boats and mud trucks. Keith was a skilled mechanic working in automotive and industrial facilities where he was seen reading his bible on lunch breaks learning about his Christian faith.

Cremation services are under the direction of Melancon’s Funeral Home. The family wishes to have a private memorial at a later date.

I remember Keith visiting with us on the farm in Mt. Enterprise. It was beautiful summertime and Keith was riding his tricycle to beat the band. He was running and jumping and whooping and hollering without a care in the world. I know that he’s in Heaven and able to do all those things again. Keith was such a comfort when my brother, Benny went home to be with the Lord. I bless you for that Keith. Rest in peace until we meet again.

Keith was such a kind soul. I never heard him say anything bad about anyone. I saw how my Uncle Billy’s face lit up when Keith came to visit him. My grandmother’s face would light up also. I saw the love between Keith and his mother, sister and brother. He had do much love for his son. He now has peace and with his dad, mom, grandparents. He will be missed.

Keith was my first true love. We were at each other's side from middle to way past high school dancing the nights away at Johnny B Dalton's. He was a one of a kind of guy with a beautiful heart that didn't fight & always smiled! I am waiting for that blessed relationship like ours! Rest in Peace my dear friend! :raised_hands::heart:
