Keith was a great friend of mine. His sons scammed me from a crypto coin and made me lose $6500. I guess being a Boy Scout didn’t help enough. Keith could’ve done a better job at raising his sons and maybe having their middle names be Male would’ve been a good idea (even though they both have female traits.) RIP bozo (Bozo was his internet alias) praying for u 🙏
We are saddened by Keith's untimely departure. I am proud to have known him and learned from him through my involvement with The Jefferson Amateur Radio Club (JARC). He was a determined leader there for seven years as President (that's a record.) He guided the restoration of the JARC building in Pontiff Park following Katrina that put 6 feet of water in the club. His dedication to the Ham world was unsurpassed. We will have a moment of silence for him at tonight's General Meeting at the club. He will be remembered there for his commitment to ham radio and emergency communications. We are glad to have had him as a friend.

We offer our deepest sympathy to everyone whose life has an emptiness now because of Keith's passing. And we truly believe his return to the Father brings him peace. We first met Keith and his sons when David joined Cub Scouts in 1988 and enjoyed their friendship in scouting for 15 years until Daniel aged out in 2003. We have many great memories of Pack 172 and Troop 172 - Pack meetings with Cubmaster Keith, camping trips when Keith connected us to Jamboree-on-the-Air, late night work sessions with Keith to assemble Blue and Gold Banquet books and slide shows, booths at the OLDP Fair (rain or shine), Scout Masses enhanced with Keith's musical talent and Eagle Courts of Honor for David in 1999 and Daniel in 2003. It was our privilege and pleasure to share Keith's time with his boys in scouting. And it was always nice to cross paths with him in the years after scouts to catch up and reminisce. His friendship was a wonderful gift and is now a fond memory.
Just learned of Keith’s passing though Boy Scout Troop 172’s Facebook page. We are sorry to hear of Keith’s passing; such heartbreaking news. Our deepest sympathy to David, Daniel and all who loved Keith.
May he Rest in Peace…🙏🏻
Keith spent a great part of his life serving the amateur radio and Emcomm community in LA, including during Hurricane Katrina. When I moved back to LA in 2007, he helped me get back in with the ham and Emcomm community. He was a great friend. Rest In Peace. Prayers for Debbie and your family.
