Keith Knowlton

Keith Lynn Knowlton, 75, of Success, Arkansas, went to be with his Lord on August 28, 2025, surrounded by his loving family.

Keith was born on January 20, 1950, in Success, Arkansas, and true to his roots, he never lived more than a mile from the place he was born. A lifelong resident of the community he cherished. In retirement, he found joy in the simple pleasures of life—mowing his yard, deer hunting, and “tinkering” around, always trying to fix whatever needed fixing. He was of the Baptist faith.

On April 10, 1971, Keith married the love of his life, Georgia Faye Yates. They celebrated 54 years of marriage earlier this year. Georgia survives him.

Keith is also survived by his children, Brian Keith (Penny) Knowlton of Paragould, AR, and Aaron Lynn (DeWayne Hallsell) Knowlton of Morrilton, AR; grandchildren Brandon Keith, Allison, Matie, and Landon Knowlton; great-grandchild Blaire Knowlton; bonus-grandchildren Seth (Morgan) Cato and Logan (Gabbie) Cato; and bonus-great-grandchildren Ace, Anniston, Asher, Ayla, and Brooks.

He is also survived by his brother Rudy (Patsy) Knowlton of Neelyville, MO; sisters Norma Dougan of Cache, AR, and Janis Farley of Sierra Vista, AZ. Sister-in-law Lou Knowlton of St Genevieve mo. Several Cousins, Nieces and Nephews and Friends.

Keith was preceded in death by his parents, Norman and Bessie (Ainley) Knowlton; his brother Donnie Knowlton; and a beloved aunt, Bonnie Ainley.

Visitation will be held on Tuesday, September 2, 2025, at 12:00 PM at Ermert Funeral Chapel. A funeral service will follow at 2:00 PM, officiated by Pastor Jason Rogers. Burial will be at Black Cemetery in Palatka, AR.

Keith will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him, but his memory will live on in the hearts of his family and friends.
