Not sure what to say?

Simply the best, I will always say! Bring him home, Piano Man!!

Keith was just one of the people! You had to like him! Always enjoyed talking to him when we all lived in Piqua. He was always so proud of his girls..all 3 of them! Even though I'm a major Ohio State fan, Notre Dame is my 2nd favorite! Sadly, he followed the same path as my husband Steve, having to endure the nasty pancreatic cancer, passing away 1 year and 2 days after Steve.

I had the pleasure of working with Keith. He loved life and above that he loved his family. I will never forget how much he would smile talking about his girls and grandkids. Truly a man other men should strive to be like. Personally he encouraged me to never be afraid to take a chance or fear the unknown. It was a blessing to get to know Keith and I am a better man for knowing him.
