Dear Helga,

Keith and I used to work together at Ullico, in Washington DC. He had many passions: his boat, his dachshund, his travels, his work, etc. But most of all, he always spoke fondly of you, proudly self-proclaiming to be a “mama's Boy.” I had the pleasure of meeting you when you visited our office a few times.

When Ullico's business changed, he moved on. That was a long time ago. He had the kindest heart and he never missed a chance to help a friend in need. That's why the shock and sorrow of his passing are just as strong as if we were still working together today.

You and Keith are in my thoughts and prayers.

We met Keith in 2011 when we had our boat docked just 3 slips down from his. He was the most generous person, always coming down and helping out when I was doing something and loaning tools if I needed them. He was fun to be around and funny all the time. You will be missed Keith.

Tonya,
My heart sank when I heard the news of Keith's far-too-early departure from this material world. With my deepest sympathies, I wish for peace for you and your family in this very difficult time. If I were there, I'd hug you tight and hold you near.
Love to you and yours always.

I worked closely with Keith for many years. This is a very sad time. Keith was a caring person that helped others more than most people would know. At work he would be available when needed whether after hours, or on weekends. Outside of work he helped many in need with his time and generosity. Keith will be greatly missed.

My sincere prayers and condolences to his mother and sister.

Keith was the first person that I met, when my husband and I moved our houseboat to the Ft. Loudon Marina. I immediately knew that he and I would become quick friends and we did. He was outgoing, fun, friendly, kind and had a great sense of humor. My heart is heavy; he will be missed. He has left a lasting impression. My condolences to his many friends and family.
