June 18, 1958 - October 31, 2022

David Paul Kethman, 64, passed away on October 31, 2022, in Sheridan, WY at Sheridan Memorial Hospital.

David was born and raised in Sheridan, WY with his loving family. After graduating high school, he worked in various jobs between cooking and construction. He was a cook at Wagon Box, Bob and Donna’s, and JB’s. His construction trades included Paint Pro, Jorgensen’s Construction, and other carpentry along the way. His last job was with Affordable Siding Solutions where he enjoyed working with family.

He married his first wife, Anneliese Panasenko, and raised a family with three children he absolutely adored. He worked a variety of jobs and moved to Gillette, WY. After Gillette, he moved back to Sheridan to be closer to his family.

Later he met the love of his life, Lisa Rae Hood in Gillette, WY. She moved from Ohio to Sheridan to marry him in 2003. They helped each other with their blended families and created their own family with cats, that they cherished and kept company as their own children grew. He loved his children, and grandchildren and was always willing to help his family. He’d help with construction, painting, mechanics, groceries, babysitting, and whatever was needed by those he loved. He will be greatly missed.

David’s sense of humor was a great strength of his. He could make the best of a situation with his humor and lighten the mood to a fun calm atmosphere. He enjoyed tinkering and repairing computers, and building epic sound systems and speakers, he treasured playing with his fur baby family of cats, his love for the performance of cars and especially spending time with his family.

He will be sadly missed by his children, David Johann Kethman, Sarah Margaret Hiepler (Troy), Catherine Ellen Miller, and his grandchildren, Zachary, Madison, Alex, Jonah, Casey, and Aspen. His stepchildren Amber Boardman (Chris), Heather Soltis (Brandon), Matthew Hood (Casey), Rachel Garland, and his brother James Dewey (Jim) Kethman (Marty).

He was preceded in death by his wife, Lisa Rae Kethman, parents Clarence Dewey Kethman and Margaret Anne (Peggy) Mills Kethman, and siblings, Catherine Renee Kethman (Kae) and Larry Gene Kethman.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
