Keith, What can I say But I will so miss you, You was my Buddy in the Country. You were the 1st one that taught me to fish and hunt. You was tere for me when my Mom passed away.We was almost inseperable when you lived up the lane. As we got older we strayed away from one another and was living our own lives. I will miss you alot Cuz. Keep a look out for all of us down here. Love You!!!
