Leave a tributeLuckily, my family had the pleasure of living next door to you and Amber and your spunky girls and wild Carter. Y'all were our first neighbors, and no other neighbor will ever measure up to how awesome y'all were. Sometimes I'd look out the window of that house to see you cutting our grass for us and then 2 steps behind you was little Carter pushing his lawnmower, wanting to be just like his Daddy! LeeAnne just loved you! When we came to Cadance and Cayla's birthday party and LeeAnne was overwhelmed with the amount of people in costumes she reached for you and your friendly face. You and Amber were always full of stories, truths, and advice for me and Michael and we never got to tell you thank you and how much it helped us. You left behind only good memories for us to think about, 3 very friendly and loving children, and a wife who is so kind and helpful, always. That in itself says a lot about the kind of person you were. We wish you were still here to be with your family, but what you did for them while you were here was so great, and will last a lifetime for them. We will be missing you here.
Tricia, Michael, & LeeAnne
Love Aunt Gayle

My childhood friend and cousin....
Keith was my childhood friend. Most days we would be seen together with our siblings riding 4-wheelers, playing in the creek, jumping on the trampoline or whatever else cool ideas we came up with. He and Natae were either at our house or we were at theirs... One day in particular was my 12th birthday. I had jumped on the back of the 4-wheeler with him and I was barefooted while he took off in his usual fast style doing fishtails... After a few feet of riding I noticed my foot was covered in red and caked on dirt. He looks down and says, "your bleeding"! He drove me back home and went to get his dad who then came to look at it. I had cut my foot from a stick in the road. I was taken to the emergency room where they cleaned it up and put 7 stitches in. While my uncle stayed back with the kids that were there for my birthday. To this day you can still see the scar and the place where the stitches were. I have always said I carry a piece of him around with me every day. Now I truly cherish this scar and now have one on my heart. There are so many stories I could tell of him and Natae... I am reminded of one when my sister would babysit us in the summer and we had the idea to fill up the bath with cold water because we were hot...lol or when he would run around the house singing, "don't mess with my toot toot"! We were a mess and we loved every bit of it... Him and Natae were my childhood friends and my cousins... He will be missed and remembered for being a great friend.
