Keith Douglas Lewis

Keith graduated from Lawrenceville High School. In 1956 and enlisted in the Air Force right after graduation and was stationed in Guam, honorably discharged in 1960. He attended General Motors Institute and graduated with his bachelor's degree in 1965.

He was married to his wife Sandra Darlene Lewis in 1960 in Lawrenceville IL, and married for 62 years.

He had a career as an automotive engineer for GM for 39 years. He was a proud member of the NRA and an avid shooter. Keith had his own business that he ran throughout his retirement, ATB (Absolutely the Best) chain lubricant that he himself invented in 1989. His product was sold in many states and continues to this day. He had a passion for delivering ATB product all over the U.S and has a loyal following due to his superior product and customer service.

Over the course of his life Keith enjoyed shooting at the range, riding motorcycles, hiking and camping. He and his wife Sandy enjoyed many summers in Show Low at Bills lake in their fifth wheel. Keith was the go to if you needed help with anything or needed something fixed. His garage is legendary, if you needed a tool, he had it. He is well known for his love of dogs and had several Jack Russell terriers over the years ( Hellen, Ernie & PupZ) and was often seen walking the neighbors Chihuahua and Pitbull. Pops often said he understood his dogs more than people. Keith had many friends and if you were lucky to know him then you have heard your fair share of stories.

Pops loved his family and had a weakness for his 3 great granddaughters Harper, London, and Parker. Pops will be missed by all who knew him and the void he left is insurmountable. He is survived by his loving wife Sandra, Children Mark (Kristin) Todd (Jane) Grandsons Mitchell (Jennifer), Braden (Lexi), Cooper, Ben, Jack and granddaughter Markell, great granddaughters Harper,London & Parker.
