Keith grew up around the corner and through the woods from my wife and I. He was always a polite good kid who grew into a good young man. Many times he came over to ask if he could track a Deer that came onto our land. We always appreciated that he asked before just going ahead. Our condolences go out to his daughters and Family. So shocked and saddened to hear of Keith’s passing. Way to young. No words can help in these times... cling to the great memories and be proud of your Dad.. Son and Friend.. he was a good man! So very sorry.
