Justeen Scott Keahey, of Fairborn, Ohio surrounded in her home by those who loved her most wove her way back into the fabric of the universe on Dec. 20, 2020, after a hard-fought battle with cancer. A healer, a mother and a dear friend, she never met a stranger in her life, and the space she leaves in our hearts is indescribable.
Born in Queens, N.Y. on Oct. 25, 1950, Justeen was often sick as a child and found herself in the hospital fairly frequently. What could have been a sad and isolating experience Justeen turned into a calling, as she developed an admiration for the nurses who cared for her and kept her company. She decided that she wanted to do the work that they did, and she threw herself into her destiny as a healer.
