He will truly be missed by all who knew him, always a smile and positive attitude for all of those he came in contact with. We regret not having more time to get to know him better, But God had a purpose for him and needed him in Heaven. Our loss is God's gain and He assures us that we will meet again. Prayers for those Bro. Keith has left behind.

Revelation 21:4 states; And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.
Always happy, kind, gentle, upbeat, and always wearing a smile this man was a very good person to know. He was an angel here on earth and you could tell he loved the Lord.
I for one am so glad I got to meet ya face to face. You certainly enriched all of our lives. May he rest in peace. Robin & Jim Munch
