Niki (Keener) Harrell

Niki Keener Harrell departed this life on July 4, 2023, surrounded by her loving family. Niki was born in Rutherford County on October 21, 1981, to Steve and Lisa Keener. 

She was a loving mother to Japheth Keener and Cleo Harrell and a bonus mom to Jessica Sanders and Brianna Harrell. She was also a loving grandmother to Emily and Hunter Sanders. She enjoyed spending time and making many memories with them and her loving husband Brian Harrell.

 Niki enjoyed anything she could do with her family, she loved cooking and baking, gardening and canning, hosting family gatherings, traveling, her dogs, spending time with her close friend Jennifer Mcgee, and most of all she loved being a wife, mother, and grandmother. Simple pleasures in life brought great joy to Niki. 

She is proceeded in death by her father- Barry Steve Keener, paternal grandparents- William Keener, Mary Jo Keener, and Riley Austin, Maternal grandparents- Robert Harris and Mattie Harris.

We shed many tears that she is gone, but we smile because she lived, how blessed are we to have someone that makes saying goodbye so hard.
