I have many wonderful memories of Uncle Keith and being up at the farm. I remember him trying to teach me to crutch sheep, he had a lot of patience and a great attitude lol. I was born on Uncle Keith's 21st birthday so we always knew each other's age. As a young boy I always rang him on our birthday to remind him how old he was.
I am sorry I can't be there for his funeral. My thoughts are with you all.

Sincere condolences to Keith's family. Sorry that I will not be able attend Keith's funeral. We had many moments, first meeting at the Waitara Alzheimer's Carers Group and helping each other, he with advice about pruning my roses and me adding a few stitches to repair well loved clothes. He certainly enjoyed company and a hug. I was pleased to have caught up with him at the rest home. Rest easy dear friend. Hope to livestream in, thanks for that opportunity.

A man who enjoyed indoor bowls and the company there. He was a friend to many. May he rest in peace.
