Keith Oborn

Dear Ruth and family -

I spent much of my childhood growing up with my great grandma, Ruby Draper. As a young child I remember Keith and the "good ol' OP Skaggs". I would frequent the store just to see him. I was only 6 or so, but even then appreciated him for the wonderful person he was. He always had a smiling face and a heart bigger than the store. They just don't make them like him and my Nana anymore. I can only hope that I take the hard work and good values that I...

I just stumbled on the news that Mr.Oborn had died. I remember him from over 40 years ago when our family moved to Glendale. I went to school with Brian and Brent, and this family has suffered some terrible losses in the past couple of years. I have such sweet memories of going into O.P. Skaggs as a kid. I hope the many messages here from people like me will bring some comfort to the Oborn family. I think of men like Keith Oborn as the salt of the earth.

Dear Brian,
I was shocked to learn that you had lost your father. I'm so sorry for you as this is a double whammy, losing your wife and father so close together. Sounds like he was a very religious man fulfilling his callings in the church. My sincere sympathy goes to you and your family. May God bless you.

Dear Oborn Family,
I was so sorry to hear about your loss. What a wonderful person and wonderful memories we have of Keith in our lives. He blessed so many peoples lives in so many ways. I remember how he would call our home and see if my son could come help him make a delivery of groceries to widows in the ward. His love, caring and generosity to others will never be forgotten! He was a giant of a man! Keyes Family

I always loved going to OPSkaggs. Keith always had a welcoming smile. My Dad Keith MacKay and Mom Ardith Loved The Oborn's. I am so sorry Ruth. May Keith rest in peace. He was a wonderful man!!!

Dear Oborns, especially Brian and Ruth, We are deeply saddened to hear of Brother Oborns death. Death comes as a friend at times and as a foe at others- Death has been a visitor to your family several times as of late, as it has been for us also. We are remembering you in our prayers and hope the Lord will grant you all the blessings you stand in need of at this time. We are not able to be at the service for which we are sorry. Brian, we hope the Lord is especially mindful of you at this...
