Not sure what to say?

Dearest Patty....Wondering whatever happened to you and Keith and starting typing. Was saddened to find this. Mom and I think of you and your family and get some laughs when we talk about days in Ft Lauderdale. Please reach out. Sincerely, Dorothy Chapman

This is shocking news. Keith and I shared a studio space during grad school at UNC. He was such a generous friend. I admired his artistic determination. His love and dedication for his young family was always apparent.

I miss you every day little brother. You and Dad give each other lots of hugs from me...and please watch over all of us. You are sorely missed. Patty

I was a student of Keith's at UAB in the early 90's when I got engaged. He was so sweet and came to our wedding. My husband and I both were interested in casting, so Keith invited us to cast a piece each at Cordray Parker's. It was an exciting day that I will never forget. Thank you, Keith.

Tjank you for all your kind words. I miss my brother greatly and am saddened by this loss beyond words.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My friend Stella (Farrell) Brittain sent me this notice. I was friends with Patti at Mt. Brook High School and remember her kid brother very fondly. I lost touch with Patti many years ago and would love to hear from her. Once again, my deepest sympathies go to you all.

Someone just told me about Keith's death. I am an old, old friend of Patty's....back when she & Keith lived on North Woodridge.
If anyone is in touch with Patty, or Patty ~ if you see this ~ please contact me. I'm so sorry for your loss. I wish I'd known sooner so I could have been at visitation.

My thoughts are with you all.
Love,
Mary

I remember "borrowing" Keith's 8 track of the Who's "Who's Next". After playing it non-stop for 6 month's, he politely asked for it back. When he and Barbara were living in Knoxville, he had to sign for a hotel room for me and 3 other teenage freinds after car trouble delayed our camping trip. BIG leap of faith! Years later, he let me use the lake house, and I left the seadoo too close to the dock, and when the water rose it got stuck underneath. He didn't complain.(to me anyway) Keith, you...
