Dee, Fuzzy, Cody, Chris and family,
It goes without saying how much I love all of you. I was blessed by knowing Keith. He was one of the finest young men I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. He was courteous, funny, loving, amazing and I am a better person for having known him. You both raised him well. He is an extension of you. Now he is enjoying heaven with his Granddaddy until we are all together again. May the peace that passes all understanding be with you and yours.

I am so sorry for your loss. Keith was an amazing person and I'll always remember him as the funny guy with a great spirit. You raised such a great son. I hope that knowing how much he has touched so many people brings you some comfort in your time of despair. Keith will always hold a special place in my heart.

Dea Anna,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I do know how hard the path you are walking is... My son, Derrick age 24 was killed in a car accident 3 years ago. My faith in God and the hope of seeing Derrick in Heaven helps me get through each day. I still cry many tears...but they are tears of joy. His beautiful smile, his tender touch and pat on my back when he gave me a hug, his loving and caring ways, wearing flip flops in the winter, and the list goes on of all the wonderful memories I cherish. Remembering all the wonderful memories keeps him forever alive in my heart. If you ever need someone to talk to, share a memory, a hug or a cry...I am here. Call me anytime.931-260-8967

Ms Dee & Fuzzy,

I'm sure you've heard over & over the past few days how shocking this news has been, but I'm sure you've heard even more often of what a great guy Keith was. I know there is no words or actions that any of us can do to make any difference right now, but I am praying.
I so wish I could've made it down to be there the past couple of days. I'm thinking of you all.

Love, Prayers, and Great Memories!
