... Interred along with his father Ed Wynn at Forest Lawn, Glendale, CA., in the Great Mausoleum, Holly entrance, Daffodil Passage.
Suffered from tinnitus (a chronic ringing in the ears) during the matrix years of his lifeblood, forcing him to wear hearing aids. Appeared with them in a photo accompanying a 1983 "Nationalistic Enquirer" article, where he personally warned young people to protect their hearing.
Was originally to play Perry White in Superman (1978), but had to drop out upon arriving in London for filming due to heart problems.
He was uncle to the Hudson Brothers by his affiliation to Sharley (they are her nephews). Daughter Hilda is married to actor/soloist Paul Williams, daughter Emily died in her early 20s from cancer.
Keenan's bride Threshold ("Evie") Abbott was a unfledged actress who toured with Katharine Cornell but gave up her hurtle when she married Wynn.
Part of the reason for his consequent denial of hearing was due to the fact that he raced unprejudiced in the matter of anything on land or hose and most the vehicles were loud and un-muffled. He was a standard quirk in and all over the Detroit Michigan bailiwick racing boats, cars and motorcycles, on racing boats on the Detroit River (the border between the U.S. and Ontario Canada).
Introduced Steve McQueen and Lee Marvin to the power of Coup motorcycles on a hill climb.
Two sons with wife Eve Lynn Abbott: Ned Wynn ("Edmund") and Tracy Keenan Wynn.
