Scott was born in Mt. Clemens, MI the son of James and Karen Kilgo. He went on to graduate from Sterling Heights Stevenson High School in 2002. Scott received his degree in Mortuary Science from Worsham College in Wheeling, Illinois in 2006. He married Charla Smith in 2011. They have four children; Korbin, Avery, Ella, and Jonas. Scott and Charla are members of the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite. Scott and his family enjoy raising registered Belgian horses, cattle, and spending time together as a family. He is honored to serve the people of Charlotte, Olivet, and the surrounding communities. Scott is looking forward to the opportunity to build on the long standing relationships that our firm has established over the past 114 years. Scott, Charley, and the staff of the Burkhead-Green-Kilgo Funeral Home will never take lightly the trust and responsibility that families place in them.
Keith Litwiller has enjoyed working full-time as a Funeral Director’s Assistant at the Burkhead-Green-Kilgo Funeral Home since the summer of 2018. He with his wife, Jeanette, and their children, Pierre and Emma, moved from Gratiot County to rural Vermontville in the spring of 2019. They have experienced the blessings of making many new friends in the Charlotte area!
Keith and his family have spent several years in West Africa as missionaries for their church; The Church of God in Christ, Mennonite. He is an ordained minister in that Mennonite church and finds fulfillment in visiting with and helping the many families we are honored to serve as they go through their valley of grief.
Prior to mission work overseas, Keith and Jeanette owned and operated The Hearthstone Oven Bakery and Café in downtown Ithaca. Situated along US-127, the restaurant has become a destination spot for many people around the state and continues today with the same integrity and detail to customer service as well as quality, homemade food.
As a lover of nature, Keith enjoys the outdoors and spending time in the woods and caring for Hereford cattle on their family farm in Kalamo Township. He also enjoys acapella gospel singing, reading and reciting poetry, grilling and smoking meat, and traveling to see new sights and historical places, and of course most of all, spending time with his family!
