Brandon Carl Keister, 45, of Wiconisco, passed away unexpectedly Tuesday, July 7, 2026.
Brandon was born on Wednesday, November 12, 1980, a son of Richard and Diane Fry Keister, Wiconisco.
He was a 1999 graduate of Williams Valley High School. Brandon excelled at Vo-Tech in the small engine repair shop, where he became an award winning motorcycle engine repairman. Brandon won the State Competition in Motorcycle Repair, going on to later win the National Title in Kansas City. Following graduation from Williams Valley, Brandon received his degree from the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute, Phoenix, Arizona.
He began working as a teenager at the TNT Cycle Shop in Wiconisco. He achieved his goal of owning and operating his own business, Motor Psycho.
Brandon was very talented with his hands and could repair anything he set his mind to. As his dad always said, "Nothing was ever broken or could not be fixed, unless Brandon said it was."
Brandon was a skilled drummer, belonging to local bands throughout his life.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Richard "Bud" and Betty Lou Keister and Carl and Shirley Fry. On June 9th, Brandon's girlfriend Kristen Betz passed away after a brief battle with cancer.
He is survived by his parents, Rich and Diane Keister; his beloved daughter, Haylee E. Keister; his brother Jeremy Keister (Michelle); his aunt and uncles, Sheri Gonder and David and Kurt Fry; several cousins and his cat, Luna.
