Keith went to school in Alexandria MN. Graduated

from Alexandria Vo Tech as a Diesel Mechanic.

Worked for Marshall Block for 16 plus years

as a Diesel Mechanic.

Keith bought a little hobby farm in Cokato MN.

Quite a fixer upper and always a work in progress.

Started a fruit orchard to have for his retirement.

Loved to tap his maple trees for sap and turn it into

Maple Syrup. He experimented with many different

kinds of vegetables when planting his gardens. Some

successful, some not, but he loved it. Was working

on building raised beds to make it easier because

of his Rhumatoid Arthritis. He was always building or

refinishing something. Loved to go to auctions.

Loved camping and cooking on an open fire. Was a

great cook at home also. Keith was always willing to

help someone who needed it and opened his home

to many that needed a place to stay.

He will be greatly missed.
