Keith had a lifelong passion for collecting Hot Wheels. He found joy in the hunt for a rare find and took great pride in meticulously organizing his vast collection. This is something he carried with him into his career in the automotive field. Whether it was auto repair or parts and supplies, he never left the industry.

Keith also loved his dogs, Cheyenne who met him over the rainbow bridge, and Kash.
