I am sorry to hear of Keiths passing. He was a very special person. I tried to locate him over the years. I always hoped we would meet again. He will always have a piece of my heart. Goodbye my friend.

Greetings! I'm sorry about Keith's passing. I did not know him well in high school.The class of 1979 was pretty big. My picture is on the same page as his in the year book. My prayers go out to you in your loss!

Keith Paulson was a good friend of mine in high school. He used to pick me up before school in that red Capri. We also liked going up to topsy jumping off the rocks and made many road trips. He then became best friends with my big brother Mark Baker and they were inseparable for 4 or 5 years. It just so happens Mark passed away last month battling stomach cancer. Keith was a good man and friend, he will be missed. RIP brother, peace to your family in this time of loss. Your friend Bryan Baker. Salem Or
