Keith was a devoted husband, father, son, and brother who cherished every moment with his family. His wife, Kellie (Larson) Lainey, was his true love and lifelong partner — together for 35 years. Their daughter, Alexandria, was his greatest joy.

He attended Leicester HS where he played soccer as a goalie. After moving to Paxton, MA he graduated from Wachusett HS and later attended Worcester Industrial Technical Institute.
He enjoyed gardening, learning about interests, and running his businesses, KDL Kustom Finishes and later on KDL Kustom Filmz, where he was known for his hard work, perfectionism, and craftsmanship.
