Dear Knutson Family

Thank you for sharing the memorial of Keith, as well as the album of Keith and Braden. What is important is that stick together, as a family, during this time. Keep the fond memories alive. In the few times we have been with you all (Keith, Stephanie, Jordan, Laura, and sometimes Braden), we noticed happiness and fun times (bridal shower, Missoula wedding, slideshow albums, etc.) We are thinking of you.

My Dear Cousin.....
Although, as adults, we didn't connect often you were always in my heart because we are "blood". This was such sad news my father had to deliver to me. As children, I remember the fun, laughter and the mischief we got into.....especially in Iowa. I can still hear your infectious laugh.
Rest in Peace.

We are so sorry to hear about Keith. It is hard to understand how this could happen. The few times that I talked to him he was always upbeat and so easy to talk to. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the family. We love you so much. God Bless. Ken and Rosemary.

Jordan and family,
I am so sorry to hear about your dad. I met him when I came to town for Laura's bridal shower and he was so happy, fun, and full of laughter.
I will be praying for you and your family that God will wrap His loving arms around you and carry you through this difficult time.

Keith was an excellent person- I truly enjoyed working with him. Always so energetic and enthusiastic. I had the pleasure of working with him often as we wrote his Property Insurance as well as Gasser Construction. Keith was just a great guy and he was SO proud of his boys. He was always very pleasant and I could 'hear' his smile thru the phone! Our prayers to the family - Keith, as your Insurance Agency-Louis Blosch Agency - we will all miss you......

Keith-
You always seemed to know how to brighten a room with your presence. I want to thank you for passing down your sense of humor to Jordan who in turn passed it on to the Sheldon family. I don't know what any of us would be like without it. The Knustson's have always felt like family to me. You will be greatly missed by everyone who got a chance to know you.
My love and prayers go out to all of you grieving in Tulsa.
Bethany

There was never a time when Keith didn't put a smile on your face or made you laugh until you cried. Always a gracious host, and most of all, a good friend to all of us. We will miss his infectious smile and big hugs.

There was never a time when Keith didn't put a smile on your face or make you laugh and cry at the same time. Always the great host, and most of all a friend to all of us. We will miss his infectious smile and big hugs.
