LARRY MICHAEL KEE

Larry Michael Kee, age 72, husband of 36 years to the late Maryanne Jannot Kee, died on Wednesday, Aug. 12, 2020, at his residence.

Born in Spencer, West Virginia, he was a son of the late Harry Lee Kee and Virginia Dare Sinnett Kee. Larry was a faithful member of The Church of the Holy Comforter. He worked as a quality control manager of Cooper Tools in Sumter and retired after more than 25 years of service. He was an avid golfer, enjoyed playing cards with his buddies and was a master gardener. Larry loved all sports, especially Penn State football. More than anything, Larry was a devoted husband to his wife, Maryanne. He loved his family and will be remembered as a very loving father, grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle and friend. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by a daughter, Michelle Drake and her husband, Pete, of West Virginia; three grandchildren, Ashley Drake, Justin Drake and Sarah Drake; four great-grandchildren, Christopher, Harleigh, Hunter and Benjamin; a niece, Regan Branstool of Indian Trail, North Carolina; and his faithful dog, Poogan.

In addition to his wife and parents, he was preceded in death by a brother and a sister.

A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. today at The Church of the Holy Comforter.
