Keith Densmore

Age 18

Turrell, Arkansas

A basketball fan, an aspiring barber

He was an avid Cleveland Cavaliers fan; he enjoyed watching LeBron James play. He attended Blytheville High School, where he was in the cosmetology program, studying to be a barber. It would have been his dream job.

He worked at Sonic Drive-In and enjoyed spending time with his son, mother and countless friends. He was an inspiration for them and always had a kind and poignant word to say.

On June 9, 2018, just three days before his 19th birthday, Keith E. Densmore was shot and killed at Turrell Manor Apartments in Turrell, Arkansas.
