Mckeon James Whitten

McKeon James Whitten, born October 1, 2010, returned home to the loving arms of his Heavenly Father, November 24, 2010, due to difficulties from a heart condition. McKeon was the 3rd son of Michael and Kaylene (Tucker) Whitten.

Our sweet little boy was a great blessing to our family. Although he was with us only a short time, he touched the lives of many. McKeon enjoyed being home with his family and being held by his older brothers. We are very grateful for the brief time we were able to spend with him and look forward to when our family can be together again.

McKeon is survived by his parents and brothers, Mikey John (3) and Monroe Wayne (2) of Kimberly; grandparents, Michael and Carol Whitten of Meridian; John and Marsha Tucker of Firth; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Funeral services will be held 11:00 A.M. Tuesday, November 30, at the Firth Ward Chapel, 744 N. 600 E.  Visitation for family and friends will be from 9:30 a.m. to 10:40 a.m. prior to the service. Burial will be in the Firth cemetery.
