My Godfather, Albert Keck, worked at Bolin-Brian Funeral Home as an ambulance driver.

His father, C. Albert Keck, owned and operated the Keck Funeral Home on Putnam Ave.

It was bought out by Mader-People's Funeral Home around 1952.

I'll always remember you and your father, Russ.

Ken and you were always a comfort to our family!

Dear Trudy, Mrs. Bolin, Kelsey and family,

Russell was a very kind and gentle soul. I never saw him without a smile on his face. He had a comforting presence when I visited loved ones who passed at Bolin Funeral Home. I know he will be so missed by you and by the entire community. You have my deepest sympathy.

Love you, Trudy.

Dear Marie, Trudy, Pam and Kelsey,

I cannot possibly express how terrible I feel about the loss of Russ. He, without question, was one of the finest, generous people I have ever known. I will always remember him and how wonderful he treated me and my family. I will not attend the viewing as I do not handle going to the funeral home very well at all.

IT HAS BEEN AN HONOR TO HAVE KNOWN RUSS ALL THESE YEARS. HE WENT TO SCHOOL WITH MY UNCLE AND I ALWAYS HEARD HOW GREAT A FAMILY ALL OF YOU WERE.
OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH ALL OF YOU
