I believe is was May of 1986 when I was hired by Metal Improvement Co to be a Sales rep for the former Walcher Metal Treatment Co that they had recently acquired. I had a decent Metallurgical background but not much heat treating experience. I was soon given an office to share with Keith and over several years learned from a Master. But not only that, I got the experience of sharing that office with a Man who loved his Wife and Children. I believe what was more important than learning about heat treating and Metallurgy was learning about being a loving caring human, when I paid attention. I'm so sorry I wasn't in town to attend Keith's service, to honor his life. I want his family to know how much I appreciate my time with Keith and the positive impact he made on me.

Keith raised 6 sons to be strong and independant thinking even tho they all had a "D" in their name. Doug went first but his children are doing a great job with Christy's leadership and I bet the help that Keith provided.
