John Charles McKeithan

A family graveside memorial service was held Monday at Hillside Memorial Park. Charles was born July 1, 1956 in Laurinburg to Herbert and Norma McKeithan.

Charles is remembered as a loving person with an independent spirit. He lived a life of integrity, honesty, and selflessness. He was a great athlete in his day who loved the outdoors and was a devoted fan of the North Carolina Tar Heels.

His strong morals were paired with physical strength. Charles was a brain cancer survivor for two decades who never complained of lingering complications from the disease or treatment.
