Farewell Keith

Today, round about now, family and friends of Keith are saying good bye in a service of thanksgiving for his life, which, based on my short time knowing him, and all the tributes posted on the other blog entry, was a full full one. Much like his laughter.

I like to think that what happens to us in death, is just how it was portrayed in the movie 'Ghost', where your spirit leaves your body, in all of its pain, and finds a resting place more glorious than you would have ever seen on Earth.

So I will think that Keith is in such a place, linking up with all the people he knows who have gone on before him.

Through this incident, I have discovered that blogging, and the internet, is a very powerful tool to allow people from all over the world to connect and share. Even though I am not at the funeral, my thoughts are with Dawn, their daughter and the siblings, friends, and relatives of Keith, as they sing, give praise and magnify the life of their dearly departed.

Keith, may your soul and your spirit rest in peace.

PS. Regular posting will resume here as of Monday.

May Keith's soul rest in peace. I am so saddened by his death as he was my first dentist. He was such a gentle soul. I hope his family will find solace in the words of the almighty. It is at this time we have to reflect on how life is so short and delicate. May God give all who are affected by his sudden passing the gift of love and sharing.

Dawn and all of Keith's Family

Mishka and I will miss Keith very much. However, find solace in the fact that he has just been temporarily removed from us. He is gone to a better place and eventually we will all meet up again and hear his infectious laugh. I know you are experiencing a feeling of loss and we do share that with you, but just remember that time will ease the pain. Keep the faith.
Remember, call on us any time.
