I remember being welcomed in his home at 8 yrs old as his son Larss best friend. He and his wife immediately knew I had a different family framework than they provided their own children. They opened their door and cared for me as one of their own. He was my first role model of who I wanted to be and Phyllis corrected my every word, as a mother should, and is the very reason I am so articulate and mind my manners to this very day. I owe so much to both of them and hope this message is something he can read from above and she can read from here.
God Bless and thank you for giving me someone to look up to!

I had the pleasure of working with Keith for many years. As our company grew, we didn't see each other as often, but when we did, he always had a smile on his face! I will miss that smile. So sorry for your loss.

Keith and Lis are one of the most loving couples we have ever known. A model of a nurturing and beautiful husband, it was a joy to be around them. Quick to laugh, always interesting conversations... somehow fun just materialized in their presence. Much love to Lis.
Keith will be missed greatly.

While Keith Rogers was somewhat of a private man, what we did know of him proved he was a caring and kind man interested in others but careful not to enter their private space. Caring for our little sister in an unparalled manner and always looking to her happiness and well being. Keith was never judgmental but always understanding and concerned for others. A great loss, never to be forgotten. Lis, you have our ongoing love, respect and prayers. Walt and Bonnie Weaver, Havertown, PA.

My best memories of Keith....that charming grin,those beautifully pressed, pastel monogrammed shirts, being the BEST host ever for his legendary New Years Day
celebrations and Low Country Boils! The day he called me a Goddess for making him his favorite pitzell cookies. He was always a classy guy, always a gentleman and always so in love with his beautiful wife, Lis.
