He also attended Springfield-Clark CTC of Electrician. He worked for Triec Electric in Springfield. Keith attended Restoration Park Church, he loved the outdoors and hunting & fishing, you would always find him working on that next vehicle, riding 4-wheelers and motorcycles. Keith always had a “story” to tell and was a reliable friend and quick to help many. He lived life to the fullest and never left the house without that hug, “Love you, see you later” and “Okay, I’ll be careful”. He also enjoyed spending time with each and every one of you, especially his brothers and all his cousins, he was a big kid himself. He had such a big, bright, infectious smile that lit every room he entered. We will never forget his goofy expressions and all his sunglasses.
