Keith loved his family dearly, he was a wonderful son, father and brother. When you saw Keith he always had a smile on his face and a story to tell. While in high school Keith played football and after graduation he then went to pursue his dream of becoming a engineer at Wright State University, but his dream was cut short due to finding out he had a life threatening illness. But he didn't let that stop him from enjoying his life to the fullest. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.
The state of Ohio is under a mandatory mask order and has required that face masks be work in all public places.
