Personal note

Keith is at peace now. For decades, he suffered greatly with a difficult to treat depression. Sadly, self-medication (addiction) hijacked his mind, body and spirit. His family tried to help, but to no avail. Keith was proud; he thought he could heal himself. He did not want to cause any pain to others. Eventually though, he gave up. His mind and body followed. The sadness is unrelenting. A heavy hammer and a pounding heart....spiraled into a deep deep dive. For moments, however brief....Keith, you were once alive."

Depression leads to Addiction. Addiction is a thief. It will rob a soul of everything. It scorches the spirit from all those who try to help. This disease develops in childhood most of the time. The soul becomes tortured to be in it's own body. He was always trying to find joy, searching...........never finding it. His brain would not let him. We are all so sorry for his pain he could not overcome.

Keith is now everywhere joy is. He is finally free of suffering. He is with God in a glorious universe. He walks with Jesus in peace.
