Keith was my partner at Henry Ford Allegiance Secure Unit for 13 years until his retirement. He was a great friend. He loved to read and talk about his daughter and Grandchild. He loved Tigers baseball and gave me a baseball for my sons first ball. RIP my friend

Keith was my tennis partner at JCC back in 1976. He had a passion for the sport and was not afraid to take the important points. May the Lord give comfort to his family.

My condolences for the loss of your father. I worked with him at the MDOC for many years. My brother was acquainted with him at the YMCA, he taught him Judo back in 1977, with tournaments and many medals won. Your father was a good man! I appreciated and shared his love of reading!! He will be missed.

We went to Jackson High with Keith. He was a very nice guy. A great guy who will be missed by many. We are so sorry. May God give you peace.

I knew Keith first from the dojo at the YMCA & later at the prison. He was one of the few that the prison system didn't seem to change much. My condolences to his family and friends.
