Moving to Wichita in 1970, I knew no one. I was blessed to wind up on a street named Donnell. I was the old guy among a bunch of mid teen boys. All the Epperly boys worked for me at one time. As it turned out, the block turned out a bunch of fine men. Keith had the energy and pure happiness of 5 people. That laugh and grin. The main thing, you had better not mess with his brothers or you would pay dearly. Irv, Kelly, my thoughts are with you. I'll try to make it up. It's been way to long. We all have some great "Keith" stories that need to be remembered. Peace be with you all. Jerry

Keith was one of a kind & I enjoyed him when we were young. I knew him better then. My heart goes out to all his family & friends & may God strengthen you.

So sorry to hear of Keith's death. We "Tennessee raised cousins" have had few chances to connect as adults with those of you in and nearer to Southwest Missouri, but I certainly have fond childhood memories of family gatherings at Shell Knob with all our Epperly cousins. Shell Knob Epperly family gathering were the only situation of this type for my family where girl cousins were in the minority.
As you grieve this loss, I pray that you will find comfort in celebrating the great memories that you made as a family, and in knowing that you are members of a larger family of Epperlys that loves you, and will be praying for you. Marilyn Epperly Reel Metz
