Such a kind and knowledgeable doctor. We were lucky to have him at WSU.

I am colleague for Dr. Keller's from WSU, but remember him from when I was graduate student receiving all my healthcare at the University. I served on committees with him and was always impressed by his knowledge and willingness to help. His dedication to his patients and the students is unprecedented. We lost a great man who leaves behind an even greater legacy. Much love, peace and comfort to his family and friends during this sad time.
