Poppy Clem, my friend!
You were ready to go for some time! You prayed to God to take David first cause you didn’t want to leave him behind. God granted your important wish! While you wanted to outlive the record of your brother Willie, He saw that you were tired, you had done so much for so many, my family included., he took your body to its eternal resting place where you will reunite with all those who went before you! Continue to dance with the Stars my friend. You were a true gentleman in my eyes. You were blessed to have such wonderful family caretakers to get you out and about to the end.
I have so many great memories that will live on in my heart. I’ll be watching the stars and you always glow in our lives . Love MAG, Jeff, Justice! We loved you for your lifetime and will for rest of our lives.
Give Mark a big old squeeze. They both wanted to be just like you when they grew up!!

We extend our sincere condolences to all of Clem's family, extended family and numerous friends. Clem was always such a delight to chat with, and always had a smile and a sparkle in his eye. As a centenarian, he defied aging and caused us to marvel at his boundless energy, be it dancing up a storm well into the night, or jogging the boardwalk early in the morning. He loved life to the fullest, and maintained a positive attitude through all of life's trials and tribulations. A life well lived! May he rest in peace!

Rosalind & members of the O'Keefe family. Saddened to hear about your loss. What a wonderful legacy he has left for you . I regret not getting to meet him but he did call me when my dad passed away a few years ago. They were 1st cousins. From what I hear he sounded like a beautiful soul. I'm sure you each have enough memories of him to last a lifetime. I hope those memories will ease some of your grief as you mourn his loss. Rest In Peace, Clem.

My deepest condolences to the O'Keefe family;
I first met Mr. O'Keefe in 2007 at Sacred Heart Church, Placentia during the Saturday evening mass and I ask a person who was that man and she told me that is Mr. Clem O'Keefe will later on I have learn what a kind and happy man he was he always had a smile and when ever he see me walking from Placentia he would always pick me up and we had a chat and then later on I found out that he love to dance I don't believe I was not to a dance that he was never too. But this passed two years I have notice I have not see him as much as I used too and I ask his family how was he doing and I learn that he was will but he has slow down. In February I went to the dance at Legion and I seen him coming in so I went over to say hi and thinking he may not remember me will wasn't I ever wrong he say Hi Angela how are doing? I say I am fine and I ask him how was he doing and he said fine and that he was turning 103 years old in May and he told me that he was having a party and that I should come. So May came and I went to his party and again he knew me and he told me that he was 103 years old today and I wish him Happy Birthday and his daughter in law Betty took this picture .
Rest in Peace Mr. O'Keefe
