Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. RIP KI. Good friend indeed you were to all, myself included. Many great memories I have of times past. Glad to speak with you couple months ago. To God Be The Glory buddy RIP. DFB

  2. My love and deepest sympathy to Keith’s wife (my niece), his son and granddaughter, his extended family and friends. What a wonderful husband, son, father, grandfather, colleague, and friend! Keith will be greatly missed by those blessed by his life. What a good and kind man.

  3. I was sad to receive the news of the loss of my next door neighbor, Keith. Buffie and Keith have been my neighbors and friends for over twenty years and I will miss Keith immensely. He was such a friendly helpful neighbor. My condolences, heart and prayers go out to Buffie and the family now and the days to come. I remember sitting on their back porch talking and reminiscing, side conversations in the yard about the trees and leaves as he manicured their lawn so beautifully and getting his expert advice about new windows and that’s what I will hold in my heart to remember Keith. May God give you the strength to move past this. I am here Buffie if you need me….Love you, Rhoda
