CISCO-KEISER

Melinda Ann (Cisco) Keiser, 53 of Celina, went home to be with the Lord, Saturday, June 11, 2022 at 6:15 am, in Coldwater Hospital unexpectedly, while surrounded by her family.

She was born August 6, 1968, in Celina, Ohio the daughter of Robert L. and Karen K. (Eichenauer) Cisco. She married Joseph Keiser on February 1, 2003, and he survives in Celina. Melinda was a 1986 graduate of Celina Senior High School and continued through out her life to support the Celina Bulldogs.

She was the proud owner of Driving School by Mel and was a bus driver for Celina City Schools, bus #17.

Melinda was a longtime member of Bethany United Methodist Church. She had a huge heart, a beautiful soul, a contagious laugh and never met a stranger; she thought everyone was her cousin. Christmas, Myrtle Beach, Winnie the Pooh, and her cats and dogs, Winnie and Ethel were a few of her favorite things. Most of all she loved her family. She was devoted daughter, loving wife, beautiful mother, wonderful grandmother, sister, aunt, niece, cousin, and friend. As our hearts ache for the physical loss of her, we find serenity knowing that she is now with God. She is at peace, and for that, we are grateful.

She is survived by her parents; Bob and Karen Cisco, Celina; her husband, Joe Keiser, Celina; her children, Katie (Brad) Link, St. Henry, Dylan (Mackenzi) Cummins, Celina, Rachael (fiancé, Tyler Salyer) Keiser, Celina and Carson Keiser, Celina; step-children, Nathan Keiser, Tennessee, Heather (Eric) Sutter, Celina and Kyle (Amy) Keiser, Tennessee; her grandchildren, Harrison Link, Caroline Cummins and one on the way; step-grandchildren, Noah, Emma and Ava Sutter, Morgan and Natalie Keiser, Gracie Price, Celeste, Calleigh and Leo Keiser; her mother-in-law, Norma Keiser; her siblings, Becki (Chris) Weitzel, Celina, Tammy (David) Vernon, Urbana and Rob (Nikki) Cisco, Celina; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and many friends.
