His most favorite pastime was going to watch his daughter and grandson play sports. Keith and Debbie were very fortunate. They were able to watch every game that Christy and Michael participated in and never missed a one. Keith and an old friend, Larry Butler were able to coach their daughters for thirteen years of summer softball. They both enjoyed every minute of it and were praised from many schools for winning twelve out of thirteen years. He enjoyed watching the races in the summer, where his nephew raced a lot of weekends.
Keith was loved by many friends and family and will be sadly missed.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents; his dad, Ray and his sister, Sharon.
Services will be held at 2:00 p.m. Monday, December 14, 2020 at Fohn Funeral Home in Cassville. Pastor Danny Heupel will conduct the services. Burial will be at Corinth Cemetery in Cassville.
