Keith was my very best friend for a long time back when he lived in georgia. I know this is late, but I didn't know. He was always full of energy and brought that energy with him always causing everyone he came in contact with, to share in his energy thereby in his own small way, made the world a little better place. So sorry I couldn't see you one more time Keith! Greg
