I'm totally speechless. I have known Keith for 30+ years, he was one of the best friends I ever had. I will truly miss him! Brian, if you read this message, please email me as soon as you can. My prayers and thoughts will always be with you.

I was very sorry to hear about Keith's passing. I lost a sister at 54, it is hard. Horace and I have been friends for a long time. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. God Bless.

I'm so shocked and saddened to hear of Keith's passing. He and I were coworkers at Medmark what seems like many moons ago. My sincerest sympathies to his family.

Dear Keith's Family, this is terrible loss of such a great guy at a young age. I played softball with Keith on Alcoa's team. He was always laughing and having a great time, especially after hitting a monster home run over the fence. My deepest sympathy and my Keith rest in peace!

Keith, You have so many facets that are so special and beautiful that words cannot encompass. You understood the vagaries of life and yet gave everybody the benefit of a doubt. I am so glad your endeavors into charcuterie meats re-engaged us. I so looked forward to working with you and socializing. Since I am so much less of a musician you are on a short list of those I jammed with - that was awesome. I know you have grieved for years for the love of your life and take heart in knowledge you are together again. Peace brother of another mother. We miss you.

He always made me and his nieces laugh. We didn't see him often enough. We will remember him and miss him.

Deepest condolences to the family and friends during this most difficult time. There are no words that can ease the pain of losing someone so beloved. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that your loved one is in God's memory. Psalms 116:15

I'm deeply saddened hearing one of my dear friends is no longer with us. I remember meeting him in a winter basketball league and saying who / what is this muscle bound guy doing playing basketball. We became good friends during that time and then played golf, watched him play guitar at his 1st open mike night . He always would sing a couple of one liners from an old school song and do his funny dance which kept me / us all laughing. Thanks for all the great memories. You will be missed but always remembered...

I was stunned and saddened to see this news. I worked with Keith at Alcoa, and he was a member of our company softball team for a number of years. He was a good teammate and had a sense of humor that kept us laughing. My deepest sympathy is with his family.

Keith, although it has been many years since i had seen you, I an so very sorry to hear of your passing. 55 is way too young and you were too good a person to be taken so early from this earth. Obviously God needs you for a bigger task in Heaven. I will always remember our friendship.

Keith was our neighbor. A good guy that kept to himself. Didn't see him
often but when we did he never hesitated to wave or say hello. Will be
missed - along with Hank his dog that he loved very much.

I will miss you in the rhythm section, and all the hilarity along the way, spanning so many venues. You were and always will be an admired, well-loved good man, and friend. - Scott Belmont

It is with great sadness that I write this message. I only became aware of Keith's passing yesterday. Keith was 4 years ahead of me in high school, so I only knew him through the sports he played. It was many years later that we ended up working together at FreeMarkets that we became friends. He was a fun, silly man, and we had many a laugh together! You will be sorely missed, my fwend. I am very glad I got to see you in April while I was in town. Rest in peace.

Keith, my brother I will miss you. It seems like yesterday we were playing guitar, or spending late nights in the computer lab (or elsewhere) at Pitt. I will miss your sense of humor and your music but count myself as blessed for having known you. So many years have gone by and each trip back home I would think about you and what you were up to. I always thought we'd get together some time soon. Rest in peace my friend.

Very sad to hear the news about Keith. Keith and I used to work together several years ago. He was a great lunch buddy and we continued to keep in touch and crack each other up over the years with our humor. Keith, you will be missed. My condolences to the family.
