Keith was a graduate of Gloucester High School and a member of Severn Church. He was currently employed at Rock-Tenn in West Point. Keith enjoyed all sports, loved to hunt and four-wheeling. Keith had an independent spirit and a great sense of humor. He loved his children and spending time with them. He was a devoted son, father, brother and uncle who will be greatly missed and always remembered by his family and friends.
