When I heard about this I could not believe it. I cannot even begin to fathom what your family is going through. I am very sorry for your loss, which doesn't seem to be quite enough to say, and yet I struggle to come up with anything else meaningful. If it provides any comfort, perhaps Psalm 27:4-5 will help.

Kevin and Tracie, no one should have to bury a child. May the God of all tender mercy be with the Klontz family in your time of sorrow.

Keith was such a quiet influence while playing basketball for me in the 5th/6th grade. No complaints, just played hard the whole game. My condolences goes out to the whole family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all today.

I am so very, very sorry for your loss. I have no idea what you are going through. I pray God gives you, Kenneth, and Elizabeth the strength to face the days ahead. I remember Keith as being a good nature kid. He always had a smile. Even when Ryan played pranks on him while he was sleeping. I think I still have a picture of Keith sleeping after Ryan wrote on his face with a marker... Once again I am so very sorry..
