Obituary
MOUNT HOREB - Keven Patrick Kelliher of Mount Horeb, age 72, passed away on Friday, Jan. 7, 2022. He was born in Madison to Joseph and Dorothy “Dot” (Handel) Kelliher on April 16, 1949. Keven was a graduate of Mount Horeb High School. A Vietnam veteran, he served in the U.S. Army and was a proud member of the VFW Post 9511. He enjoyed over 40 years in sales with Pioneer Rim & Wheel Company. He loved to go for a drive in the convertible, exploring new spots and visiting old favorites. He could tell you the best place to get a beverage and a good meal in just about any town across the state. Anywhere Keven went, it was guaranteed he would run into someone he knew and was always up for one more game of euchre.
Keven is survived by son, Kraig (Jennifer) Kelliher; daughter, Kari Kelliher; grandchildren, Kiarra Eith and Cody Hanson; bonus grandson, Wyatt Bush; former wife, Vicky (Gerber) Lino; siblings, Connie (Bob) Ripp, Kathie Hutchison, BethAnn McMahon and Dennis Kelliher; as well as many nieces and nephews. Keven is preceded in death by his parents; and brother, Laurence “Larry” Kelliher.
