Keith, old buddy, I know yesterday was your birthday. I still celebrated it for you in my own special way. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about all the great times we had together and all the places we traveled to together. I'm sure your entire family misses you deeply. I sure do. It has taken me a while to write something, but think now it is time.
Tricia, I think of you and Haley often also, especially when I go to Springfield and visit family. I and Carol, sincerely hope you are both doing well.
Peace,
Helmut

Tricia,
I am saddened to hear of Keith's recent passing. Seems like yesterday you came into the newsroom with this huge smile on your face, after meeting Keith on a story. You were smitten! And we were all so happy for you both with the birth of Haley. I know you have many, many happy memories, and let them help you through your darker days.
Know that the Hogans send their sympathies and their prayers for you all.

Dear Tricia, Haley and Family-
I am so sorry to hear of Keith's passing! I very much liked Keith- We met in a life insurance continuing education class in the early 1990's, had beers together a few times and would refer business to each other when unable to help our clients with our own carriers. Keith loved spending time with you... making cakes and a life together. He always spoke with love and kindness about you both. I'll miss our occaisional conversations and Keith's ethic and spirit. He was a great guy and will be missed!!

What a shock. Keith was my insurance agent from his first day with American National. He was such a joy and always dedicated to helping his clients as they became family to him. We were there at his wedding to Gayle and he just beamed with love. My prayers go out to his family.

Keith was our insurance agent for years. He was a kind, decent, compassionate man. My family was absolutely heartbroken to hear of Keith's passing. God Bless him and his family during what must be a very difficult time. We will never forget Keith.

My condolences to Keith's family.
I have known Keith for a long time through the fishing community.
He was a person who would do anything to help.
I also was honored to have served with him on the Ohio Bass Federation board and saw what dedication to the sport of fishing he had.
He will be sadly missed.

Mrs. Hughes and family, I was so very saddened to hear of Keith's passing. I was able to come to the funeral home and watched the beautiful pictures of Keith and his family. I think Dan and I were one of his first clients when he started with American National. Keith was always there for us when we had a problem, but always enjoyed talking with him after the problem was solved. He was so witty and made the rest of my day a happy one. My daughter, Kim, cut his hair a few times and she would tell me of their conversations. Keith was just such a joy to know and a great caring young man. Again, our condolences to you and the family. Keith will be greatly missed!

I got to know Keith during the time we both spent on the Ohio Bass Chapter board of directors. Our friendship continued through our hobby of bass fishing, and he also became the insurance agent for my family.
During these years he has been both a good friend and a very helpful insurance agent. He will be missed in both roles.
I regret to say that I did not learn of his passing until it was to late to pay respects in person.
Your loss is shared, I'm sure, by all who knew Keith
