    So sorry for your loss. I hadn’t seen Keith since high school but I always remembered him as a kind soul and a genuine person. Had many a laugh with him and Mark driving around in his K car. He was always there to help anyone who needed it, no questions asked. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

    We were so sorry to hear of Keith’s passing. My first memories of Keith are when Irene and I were involved in Block Parents back in the 70s. Little did we know that our boys would meet later on and become friends. Bob and I extend our sincere sympathy and will keep you in our prayers. Cherish the happy memories.

    I am very sad to hear of Keith’s passing. He was always a pleasure to be around and was such a good person. Our paths intersected frequently when we were younger, at U of T, in Ottawa and even out West. While I had not seen him recently I always thought of him fondly and hoped he would recover. My condolences. Keith will be missed.

    To the Beatty Family
    I had the honour of having Keith on my team for part of the time he spent at General Motors. Keith was always a positive influence on the organization and well respected by his colleagues, managers, and customers alike. I’m so sorry for your loss, but grateful for the time he was able to spend with us.

    It was a shock and a sad day to hear about Keith’s passing. Please accept my sincere condolences to all of you and your families. We were all very fortunate to grow up in a neighborhood that had lots of kids our own age. And although time may separate us, the memories will be with us forever.

    Dear Paula, Craig and Irene,
    Our sincere condolences to you and your family. This came as a great shock to me and my wife, Mary. I’ve always hoped to see Keith come bouncing back in to the office. He had such great spirit and strength. We will miss his friendship and bubbly personality. I’m sorry we missed that last goodbye. We were especially glad when I heard he had made the trip to Europe and how happy he was with the new dog. He will be fondly remembered and missed by all. Our prayers are with you.

    I was so saddened to learn of Keith’s illness and passing. Looking back through the eyes of an adult, it was truly my honour and privledge to have had a friend like Keith while growing up. Almost all of my childhood and high school memories include Keith. We truly grew up together and had many adventures and experiences along the way. Keith always had my back, without question.
    Keith…… You will always live on in my memory, go quietly into the night my friend …….
