Keith Bartley

Michael Keith Bartley, 65, of Prosperity, passed away on Thursday, September 26, 2024, at Lexington Medical Center. 

Born on April 27, 1959, in Newberry, he was a son of Doris Rodgers Bartley and the late Frank E. Bartley. Keith was retired  April 30, 2024 after 34 years with Kraft-Heinz (formerly Louis Rich). He was a member of Cross Point Church and a former member of the Stoney Hill Hunt Club. 

Keith was a simple man who loved his family especially his grandchildren, “Bop’s boys.” His favorite hobbies were gardening, fishing and just being outdoors and listening to music. Keith was a jack of all trades; if anything was broken he could certainly fix it. He was a very hardworking man who took great pride in a job well done.
