It is with heavy hearts and deep sadness that we announce the passing of Grahame Joseph Franklin Keating. Grahame passed away peacefully on December 27 2025 at Mississauga Hospital surrounded by his loving family.
Grahame endured a lengthy battle with ALS, followed by a brief battle with cancer. His strength and perseverance during this time was humbling to those around him.
Grahame is predeceased by his loving mother Joyce, father Tom and brother Danny.
Grahame will be greatly missed by sisters Darilyn (Winston), Clara (Jim),Joyce (Raymond) and Carolyn. Brothers, Ralph ( Heather),Micheal, Donald, Brendon (Cathie), and James (Tina). Also his many nieces and nephews.
Born in Howley Newfoundland, Grahame had a great love of the outdoors. He was happiest when he could spend his time fishing or hunting. He moved to Ontario at a young age where he spent the remainder of his days.
Grahame showed compassion for others, even when he was going through one of the toughest times of his life. He often volunteered at a local church serving food to the homeless.
Grahame’s family would like to thank the Drs, nurses and staff at both Credit Valley Hospital and Mississauga (Trillium) Hospital who cared for Grahame during his hospitalization and Tranquility Burial & Cremation for their helpful and professional after care. We are eternally grateful to all who have helped Grahame during his time of need.
Cremation has taken place as per Grahame’s wishes. There will be no formal funeral service.
Rest in peace brother. We know you are now in the arms of the angels.

I want to extend my deepest condolences to all those mourning his loss. In the time I knew Grahame, I always knew him to have a servants heart. He would give someone the shirt off his back, even if they didn’t ask for it. I trust that he is now with Jesus, free of his pain. You are deeply missed, brother.
