Keith and I were best friends at birth, our parents were so that meant we would always be friends. We both got mini bikes, the same Christmas. I’ll never forget his dad calling my dad really early to say don’t let Kathy get on that minibike until you check the brakes. Keith is already up a tree. We rode them many miles in Lenoir County out on Highway 258. Keith may you rest in peace thanks for all the memories we shared. We did have a good time.
I met Keith when I was 19 years old when him and my mom got together. I remember the first time I ever heard him refer to me as his stepdaughter. Words cannot begin to describe the love and respect I have for this man. He loved my mother dearly and for that alone I would always be grateful. But he also loved my children so much, and was the absolute best pawpaw ever to them. I consider myself to be incredibly lucky that I got to have Keith as my bonus dad. He was so kind, caring, generous, and so funny. I remember when I was pregnant with my son Maverick and I dyed my hair pink, my mom was freaking out, and Keith would tell her to leave me alone and that it’s just hair and I’m grown and can do what I want. He would always lend an ear and let me vent whenever I was upset, mad, or frustrated and then tell me it was going to be okay.
I have a lot of stories that I could share about him. I have many fond memories when it comes to Keith. I am deeply saddened by this loss, I loved him dearly, and I will miss him so much.
