Scott James Keilman

Scott James Keilman, 41, of Hammond, IN, passed away at home with his parents in Beecher, IL on May 27, 2023. Scott, the second eldest of five children, was born on January 14, 1982, in Chicago, to Maureen Rosolowski (nee Carey) of Beecher and Robert Keilman of Hammond. Scott was raised primarily by his mother and loving stepfather, Ronald Rosolowski, also of Beecher. A skilled tradesman of many talents, Scott had a work ethic that was second to none. He was employed by Paul’s Paving in Hobart, IN at the time of his passing. Before that time, he worked in various positions within the construction industry throughout Indiana, Illinois, and Florida. One of Scott’s passions was art. Scott loved to draw and share his work with his family and friends. But, despite his many talents and passions, Scott’s absolute devotion was to God. Scott was baptized and confirmed into the Roman Catholic faith, but sought out God in all places. He was most recently a member of the First Baptist Church of Hammond. And although he was born Catholic, Scott continued to be an active member of both Catholic as well as Protestant traditions. Everywhere he would go, his bible would be with him. He leaves behind five siblings, as well as 9 nieces and nephews. They include brother Robert Thomas (Pamela) of Virginia Beach, VA, and children Caitlyn, Britanie and Zoe; brother Sean Patrick of Demotte, IN, and children Arieanna, Kylee and Julianna; stepbrother Ronald Dean of Austin, TX and children Divina and Aurora; and sister Maureen Kathleen of Chicago and son Atlas. Arrangements are under the direction of the Hack-Jensen Funeral Home in Beecher.
