Thank you everyone who drove miles or walked feet to share this day with us! Keith would have been so happy to know you were all here to honor his memory. I was blown away with how many showed up. I am sure there were between 50 and 60 here on Saturday and apologize for the heat. The air was on, but it couldn't keep up. Wishing everyone a great weekend. Let me know if there are any individual pictures you would like or pics you take that you would like added. Love, dEB & Family!

This is an audio interview that Keith did with QSOToday Podcast in 2016 - It is a memory of his journey into ham radio, BSA, computers, geocaching and high-altitude ballooning. Enjoy!

Keith gave away his collection of 166 miniature liquor bottles and this guy made a video display attached to an interview of Keith.  This is SO special and I am so happy with this video and listening to the sound of his voice once more.

It was such  a honor to know Keith.  His knowledge of amateur radio was astounding and he never waivered on sharing.

I had the pleasure of  talking to him, one on one, before testing in Kearney in March.  He always had stories to share and when I  asked about aprs, he shared about a trip when he had got a text through aprs of  a friend that was not to far behind him. Just one of many stories!

Such a good man and mentor!

I just heard of Keith's passing today and was saddened at the news.    Keith was a Scouter's Scouter.    We taught Commissioner Training together for a period of time.   I also had the opportunity to serve on staff with him at Commissioner College.   And, of course, he knew more about Roundtable than I ever will.  He literally wrote the book on it.   I enjoyed my time in Scouting with Keith.   He truly had a genuine enthusiasm for it and was willing to share his knowledge with anyone who wanted.   He touched so many lives and will be missed by all who knew him.

Keith was a good friend and fellow Amateur Radio operator with whom I have fond memories of working with him.  He always had a positive outlook on Amateur Radio and its possibilities.  His authorship of Net Control Manager is nothing short of brilliant.  Its capacities and possibilities for use are almost innumerable.

Sorry to see Keith gone but his legacy lives on.

Deb we were sad to hear about Keith.  I worked with him at Worldspan where he was always one of the smartest people in the room.
