Just thought I'd dig into his family. There's not much on them -- especially his mother. This is all I could find quickly:
"McKeon, who was inducted into the Auburn Alumni Hall of Distinction in 2019, is the son of the late William McKeon, a longtime chair of the Cayuga County Democratic Committee and former state Democratic Party chair.
Other members of the McKeon family have been active in politics and public service. Michael McKeon, one of Brian's brothers, was an Auburn City Court judge. Another brother, the late David McKeon, supported local Democratic candidates and causes."

Auburn is just to the north of one of the Finger Lakes. Hmm...
