Darwin “Keith” U’Ren

Age 80, of Lansing, Michigan, passed away on October 20, 2018.

Keith graduated from Sexton High School joining the Marines, with several friends joining the military on the same day. These men have remained lifelong friends and still continue to gather together. He was proud of his service to his country.

Keith was a dedicated employee in quality control retiring from General Motors after 38 years.

Some of his pleasures in life included RVing, camping, traveling the US and soaking up the sun.

Keith is survived by Lucy, his wife of 56 years; daughters, Christine McQuaid (Frank) of Okemos and Michelle Robinson (Joseph) of Denver; grandchildren, Catherine, Robert and Sam McQuaid; and brother, Gregg U’Ren.

Memorial service will be at Grace United Methodist Church on Saturday, October 27, 2018, at 11:00 a.m. Visitation will take place at the church at 10:00 a.m. preceding the service. Arrangements are being handled by the Estes-Leadley Greater Lansing Chapel.

Donations may be made to Grace United Methodist Church or the charity of your choice.

oh man! Mr U’Ren (old habits die hard…) was a great guy. His gentle teasing and thoughtful questions always made me know I was someone he cared about. I will miss him! May God grant you, his family, precious time to grieve together, along with heaps of fond (and fun) memories.
