Phyllis A. Keith (Light), 77 of Shawsville, went home to be with the Lord after a battle with cancer on Thursday, October 17, 2013.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Clarence Keith and Lula Keith Atkinson; and brother, Kenneth Keith. She is survived by her son, Michael Light and wife Lisa; their two children, Morgan and Ethan; brother, Wesley Atkinson and his wife Barbara; as well as five nieces and 1 nephew.
