In Memory of SPC Mickey Lee Keeney
August 25, 1977 – April 15, 2020
‘Mickey was one of the purest patriots anyone knew. He loved flying the American flag and honoring his brothers. It would break his heart every time he heard of a veteran becoming one of the 22. He would stay up for days just to help a buddy through anything that they needed help with. He had such a big heart, especially for his children and nieces and nephews.’ Shared by his sister, Michelle
