Keith was born June 30, 1968 in Buffalo, MN and spent many years of his youth on the family farm in Bowlus. He made many friends over the years at group homes in Sauk Rapids and Richmond. Keith was a joyful spirit who loved to perform and make others laugh. He enjoyed dancing to the oldies, playing with cars, watching movies and “making money”. He was a fantastic bowler and swimmer, winning many Special Olympic Medals. He was proud of his job at Wacosa and Bernick’s.
