Too many young men dying in high speed crashes locally. Very sad story, way too young to leave us. Prayers go out to his family and the community.

Anyone know if he atteneded UTI by any chance? I'm not trying to be funny or stereotype here. I work near this school and there have been a high rate of traffic issues with these kids ever since the school opened. Perhaps the school should provide classes on traffic safety...

Although I do not know the deceased or his family & friends, I extend my deepest sympathy. I am so very sorry for your loss. I experienced a tragic loss when my husband died. I was greatly helped by the Center for Loss & Bereavement in Skippack. I hope Keith's memory will help you through this awful time.

Keith was a great, great man. I grew up with him throughout our schooling and I have never known anyone with as much enthusiasm, heart, and kindness. He IS deeply missed and to those who never got the chance to know him you missed out. his family should be proud for who he was and the man he became. Appreciate those you care for to the fullest extent and beyond because you never really know what you've got until its gone. LOVE YOU SUPREME
