I personally did not know your son but am humbled by the outpouring of love and respect that so many have expressed for him. My son goes to AFHS and is in the Lifeskills class. He is very high functioning and very social and he was friends with a lot of the Football players, Keaton being one of them. He was always so kind, took the time to make him feel special like one of the guys, laugh, and never treated him like he was not worth the time. Keaton will greatly be missed by my son but he is excited to know that one he day he will see him again. xx

I wish to express my sympathy and extend my prayers that you may be comforted at this time of tragedy. I am always saddened at the loss of one of our students. Keaton exemplified the wonderful characteristics that we hope for in our youth. The caring responses from throughout the school district and especially from the AFHS family are heartfelt and demonstrate the love and concern that is felt for Keaton and for you.
Please know that our thoughts are with you, your immediate and extended family, friends and the community.
With greatest sympathy,

Keaton was in my Be the Change group like two weeks ago. after we would share our thoughts and such we’d all get in this group hug thing and for a second it’d be awkward silence until Keaton would speak up. and he’d always say words of wisdom that left me in a good place. he always made sure the group knew that he cared for us and loved us. he made sure we knew we were good enough.
he was a nice kid, and whenever i get down i think about the words he’d say and it lifts my spirits a bit more. i’m forever thankful to have met Keaton Smith, and to say he changed me.

My heart is heavy writing this but I had to send our love here also!! Keaton had a way of making you laugh when you didnt feel like it Or when you didn’t have anything to laugh about. He just knew how to lift people up and feel hope about life. We’ll never forget our talks, heart to hearts, encouragement, watching championship games, slurpee runs when you’d sing to me, game nights, family parties, holidays, birthdays. How you’d always tease David about his Native American jokes. You always said he was your favorite Indian. My kids adore Keaton as he had a way of welcoming them and making them feel comfortable. He cared a lot for others and he showed my children he cared! He was always able to get my kids in the car when I couldn’t because they never wanted to leave . Some know, Paitynn was never easy to get in the car so I always appreciated his help. He was always wanting to help. He has a part of us and our hearts that no one else will ever have. We miss him a lot and our hearts are sad. We are grateful we know we will see him again!! Keaton is strong, and a fighter and I know he will be an angel watching over his family like he was when he was here! Sooo grateful we get to call him family!!! It’s a honor knowing him.
We love Keaton and his / our family!! Families are forever!!
Love Auntie Hev, unckey Dave, your cousins Paitynn, Joey and Rudy

I’ve hung out with Keaton like twice this summer. That kid I can honestly say has changed my life. I didn’t know him that well but he shared his testimony to me and I can honestly say I’ve never felt the spirit so strong ever in my life. Keaton had this light in him, he just brought so much happiness to everyone anywhere he was. Those couple times I hung out with him have honestly made me a better person. He told me his story and it just hit me hard like to this day it’s been months and I still have his testimony memorized in my head and it helps me feel better whenever I’m going through a hard time. I’ve met so many people in my life and Keaton was the sweetest kid with the biggest spirit ever. I don’t think i ever got the chance to tell him how special he really was and how big of an example he was and still is to others. Love you keat #carelikekeat

He changed my life. From the minute we met I knew he was one to keep around. His contagious smile and his humor always made me laugh. I’ll always remember the late night phone calls where we’d talk about everything. He knew exactly what to say when I needed to hear it. If I was going through something he always put me first before himself. I’m going to miss everything about him.

Keaton was one of my sunbeams when we first got a calling after moving to Pleasant Grove. He was very shy and timid at first, but soon warmed up to us and would run into class when he saw us with his trademark Keaton smile. He would always run when he saw me in the halls at church or grocery store etc. and wrap my leg in a big hug until I bent down to give him a proper hug. He stole my heart with those big brown eyes and chubby armed hugs.
9 times out of 10 he would want to sit on Jason or my lap while we attempted to give the lesson. He knew he was my favorite and he played on my heartstrings whenever he could to make sure he was front and center in class. He was the most adorable child. When Kirk and Becky married however, I was quickly and absolutely replaced. He was glued to her hip always and you could see how much he adored her just by looking at his face. Growing up for a few years in the same ward, Keaton would sneak me “low fives” anytime he would walk past me in the halls or even in sacrament, making sure to do his best not to grin as he stuck his small hand out. He never quite was able to hide that smile of his, but he always did his best to be reverent (even if I wasn’t haha) Later when I became a Young Women’s leader, he always came in for a hug when he would “pick Kenz up from class” begging her to hurry up and quit talking because he was “starving” and wanted to get home.
Through the years, wards have split and Keaton I’m sure forgot all of those times as a little boy, but I never will. Those brown eyes of his and toothy tiny boy grin stole my heart and imprinted all those memories forever. He was always special and just somehow knew he was a favorite of mine. He will be missed by so many, including me. Some people are just too good for this world, too close to heaven, I believe Keat “Mageat” (as he was nicknamed) is one of those. His time here was short, but his impact and legacy is far reaching. He lives on in the hearts and memories of all of us who love him. Thank you Keaton for those chubby armed hugs and silly grins, for all the low fives, and for sharing your smile with all of us. I’ll never forget them. Love, “Sister Michelle”

At our 8th grade graduation dance, Keaton was dancing in a group with me and my friends to the song "turn down for what" He danced SO HARD that he ripped his tan pants down the middle. We laughed so hard and I never let him forget about it.

The first day I met him he told me I had something special about me and that I would make a change in this world one day! The day we met I was having a really bad day and he just randomly walked up to me and asked me if I was okay! Ever sense then I remembered everything he said to me! He was a great guy
