He graduated from Birch Run High School with the Class of 1983 and proudly served his country in the U.S. Marine Corps, where his strength and discipline earned him top recognition for physical fitness. After an honorable discharge, Keith attended the Police Academy through Delta College and devoted 26 years to serving Genesee County as a police officer before retiring in 2011. He was also a faithful member of Taymouth First Presbyterian Church in Birch Run. Keith loved karaoke, rock mining, and sports of all kinds, with golf being a particular favorite. He shared his love of music and humor as a valued member of 94.3 WKUF, where he was the host of The Dog House with K-Dog and beloved by listeners for his lively and unforgettable personality. Above all, Keith’s greatest joy was his family - his children and grandchildren meant the world to him, and he never missed a single one of their sporting events. He was funny, full of personality, and never met a stranger. Keith will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
