Oh my, so sorry to hear about your loss.
I met Keith while he was working and living on Case Court. He was a plumping lifesaver to us many times over -always coming in a timely fashion with a smile and a definite "can do" attitude.
My condolences to all of you.
A loss too soon and a heartache forever.
