Keith was born on July 1, 1959, in Hudson, NY. He was a life member of the Copake Fire Company where he served the community from 1976 to 2010. Keith was probably most remembered from his time at Flood’s Sanitation where he worked for 20+ years. He was a jokester and ball-buster but would have given you the shirt off his back in a heartbeat and was beloved by all who knew him for the way he treated you like family from the moment he met you.
