In keeping with Keith’s wishes cremation to follow. Keith was known by many and loved by everyone who had the honour of knowing him. He was the kind of man who could always make you smile no matter what and greeted everyone he passed by, whether he knew them or not. His family was his life and he loved them unconditionally. Keith was so proud of his boys and his grandchildren and would do anything in the world for them. In his life he did not have a harsh word for anyone. Despite how challenging the last few months were for Keith, he pushed on and stayed positive, always keeping a smile on his face. Keith’s memory will live on in the hearts and minds of all those who loved him and he will never be forgotten. Flowers graciously accepted. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Oceanside Funeral Home, 23 Read Street, Port aux Basques, 695-7010.
