You're gone too soon, Keith. You were a good friend. You spread joy to everyone who knew you. It's been a long time since my visit to Antioch, but we had fun. And we continued to have fun in our conversations on IRC.
You'll be missed, my friend. Rest in peace.

Dear Laura,
I am praying for you and your family and very sorry for your grief and loss of your dear husband. I will always be grateful to Keith for the opportunity to join the Fremont family 10 years ago. He was always patient and helpful to me through my challenges. He was missed the day he left Fremont.
