Not sure what to say?

Was late learning of Keith's (Maj. Hansen to me) passing while doing some research for a story about our experience during the Six-Day War (June 1967). As a young 1st lieutenant on his first operational assignment, I learned a lot form Kieth Hansen.

Our thoughts are all with the Hansen family. Keith was a very special man. We miss both Gwen and Keith.

May God's light always shine on Keith, and may he know peace in God's arms. May all who miss him come to know this peace as well.

I was a math student of Mr Hansen's when he taught at Huntington Intermediate School in the early 70s. He taught with the determination all of his students would learn and be successful in mathematics. He never left a student behind. He tutored with patience, kindness and was always encouraging. God Bless You Mr Hansen and thank you. My thoughts and prayers will be with your family.

I am so sorry for your loss and will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

To the Family of Keith Hansen,
I am very sorry for your loss. I taught with Keith at Denbigh High School, and I remember him with great fondness. I was fortunate to teach Mark, as well. I hope the family feels some comfort in knowing how much Keith was respected and how much good he did in this world. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

My condolences to the family of Keith Leroy Hansen in the passing of your loved one. May the God of comfort be with you. Ps. 90;10 Ps. 37:10,11,29 Sincerely, E. Mitchell.
