Mary Elizabeth Keating

Beloved Mother And Grandmother

Mary Elizabeth Keating, 76, of Indialantic, Fla., died peacefully at the William Childs Hospice House in Florida, March 4. She was born in Tarrytown, N.Y., September 27, 1933, the daughter of Mary and Albert Royak.

She is survived by three children, including Dan, and his wife, Beth, of Newtown; and four grandchildren.

Ms Keating lived in the Bridgeport area for more than 40 years, moving to Florida almost 20 years ago where she made Indialantic her home for the last 15 years. She was a successful sales professional in the office furniture industry and the hospitality field. She was an active member of the Brevard County Chamber of Commerce and enjoyed her time with the Red Hat Society and the Satellite Beach Women’s Club. Ms Keating was very committed to the local AARP chapter and found much personal fulfillment in working with that organization.

A private service was held with the family.
