Jim & Barbara Hay would like to let you and your family know that they are praying for you and your family in your time of loss. They have fond memories of Kieth! They have saved all their Christmas cards. Keith was a talented artist! I remember baby sitting you all on Rice Way! God bless & keep you all!

I remember at Jackie's birthday party, we all doodled on a piece of paper and Keith made pictures out of each one. That was many years ago, but I remember it so clearly. He was such a kind man. I am so sorry for your loss. I wish the entire family the strength to endure the pain of losing a husband, father, & grandfather.
