Obituary
Bach, Keith Carl (aka Homespun) age 41, of Plymouth, MN and Honolulu, HI. Entered our lives November 2, 1965 and left us unexpectedly September 4, 2007. Preceded in death by mother, Eunice Elder; grandparents, Carl and Martha Henze; aunt, Ilah Henze, and step-mother, Nancy Bach. He left behind a family who will miss him greatly: father, Richard Bach and wife Jackie; step-father, Jerry Elder; sisters, Kimberlee Bach and Kerry Whitney and husband Joseph; step-sisters, Dawn Weltzin and husband Mike, Pam Hill and husband Jerry; step-brother, Paul Elder, along with 9 nieces and nephews. He was an incredible salesman/buyer whose outgoing, trustworthy personality endeared him to many. He spent some of his working life with Best Buy, Sam's Club, Petters Group, and RE/MAX. Whatever he set his mind to do - he did it well. He retired early and spent the last couple of years traveling, hanging out at Canterbury Park, and touching people's lives with his generosity, blunt wisdom, and sense of responsibility. A Celebration of his life will start at 12:30 PM Saturday, Sept. 22 at Mount Olivet Lutheran Church, 5025 Knox Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55419 Phone: 612-926-7651; At 2 PM more festivities will be held at Canterbury Park, 1100 Canterbury Road South, Shakopee, MN 55379.

Keith will be greatly missed here in our hearts. I am Keith's Interior Designer for his Honolulu Condo and we became good friends and he was an extended member of our family. He lived dreams many never get to live. My family is from Minnesota & Seattle so we had connections in places we've lived which also binds friendships. We still don't want to accept his passing and want to believe this is a bad dream. We love you Keith and your family and friends are always welcome here in Hawaii which...

Condolences to the family. I worked with Keith at Sam's club and he is absolutely unforgettable. I know he will be missed by many in the industry. I know he is going to talk the ears off of the Lord and his many Angels.

I haven't seen Keith in years but seeing his obituary in the paper yesterday has had an unexpectedly strong impact on me. He was my high school sweetheart, my first love.
Suddenly all those special, mundane times we spent together as silly, naive teens came rushing back. Goofing off together at Dominoes Pizza where he was a delivery guy and I was the phone girl; walking to meet each other in the middle of the 9 blocks that separated our homes (although he always seemed to be able to...

I'll never forget when Keith moved into his apartment in Seattle. The apartment was on the 2nd floor on downtown Seattle, so we had to bring in a CRANE to bring his baseball card safe in through the window! Keith just laughed as traffic backed up.
My best wishes to Keith's family in this time of sorrow. May God shine his face upon you and bring you peace.
