So sad to receive an announcement of Keith's death. Thinking of you and your girls, Phyllis and also remembering Keith's annual Christmas letters which were always a breath of fresh air in the annual deluge.

Mr. Molyneaux was my teacher in grade 9 and he was one of my favorite teachers of all time. He had such a great sense of humor and that wasn't an easy feat with 14 and 15 year old adolescents. He had a knack of making the class fun but also very interesting. I am now 63 but through the years I have thought of him often with great fondness. Truly remarkable teacher in my life! May Mr. Molyneaux rest in perfect peace.

We first met Keith as a colleague. We developed a friendship that continued regardless of distance and time passing. Keith's gentle and humorous conversation will be remembered and missed. Our sympathy goes out to Phyllis, Maureen and Catherine.

What a wonderful friend we have lost. Our friendship with Keith and Phyllis goes back many years to the days when Keith was the Assistant Principal at Avalon School. That was when we first discovered his talent for writing poems and his love of puns. We began attending Mayfield Dinner Theatre together and have done so for many years. Our last play was this past October when we could see that our friend was failing. Keith was the organizer of our monthly dinners with the Avalon Alumni group. He would always call to remind everyone of the date and location lest someone forget. When he would visit us he would always leave a little momento in the garage; we have accumulated quite a collection.
Keith was a wonderful teacher and administrator but most of all, he was a wonderful friend.
We will always remember him and always miss him
Rest in peace our friend.
To Phyllis, Maureen and Cathy. May your good memories help you during this most difficult time.
Love,
Norm & Shirley Diemert

Keith's wit and humour added such light and fun to my days as a teacher at Avalon. It was hard to come up with a good repartee! He adored his "girls" and talked often about them. He was fair, honest, and a true gentleman. May happy memories of wonderful times together bring solace and comfort to you in the future, and may he rest in perfect peace.

I loved working with Keith at Avalon. Please received my sincere condolences. Annette Smith

Our deepest condolences to family and friends. We had to be on our toes to keep up with Keith's wit whenever we had the pleasure of visiting with him. May he rest in peace.

Keith's insights into spiritual and human issues were always helpful at our vestry discussions. His quick, clever puns added a playful element to our meetings and he will be dearly missed at our vestry meetings, our St. A's gatherings and conversations. My prayers are with the family.
