William Allan Keating Jr. passed away on March 14 ^th 2018 at the age of 12.  Will is survived by his parents, Bill and Gina Keating, and his loving sisters, Julia and Abigail.  Born October 05, 2005 in Worcester Massachusetts, Will resided in Holden, MA until he moved to Laguna Niguel, CA in 2012.

Will's passion for baseball surpassed everything.  An avid Red Sox fan, Will's jersey number was always 34 in honor of one of his favorite players.  A pitcher and first baseman, his favorite place was in a ballpark whether playing or watching a game.  Will's effort and sportsmanship earned him the respect and friendship of those around him. Will will forever be remembered for his smile and quick wit.
