To Tasha, our heartfelt prayers and deepest condolences to you and your family. Seabrook and Robinson Family
Keith and I were very good friends. He used to help my parents with anything he could when they lived in GT. Then we he moved away from the town, he still made sure to greet me when he saw me. He and I would have a lot to talk about because he made clothes as I did. Unlike me, he was definitely an ARTIST! I just thought about him the other day; now I know why. Thank you, Debra, for bringing Keith around us, making us to love and cherish him while he lived. God Bless The Woodard and The Moore family.

Uncle Keith was the best Uncle any girl could ask for. He was humble and always made us laugh. Uncle Keith never met strangers because they would become his friends. We will miss "Hey Now" and "I love you" because when he said it, he meant it. Uncle Keith, I will miss you in the physical body, but you are with me in the spiritual realm. I will forever love you, Unc. Til we meet again,
With our deepest sympathy. Praying for the family. ๐๐ผโค๏ธ๐๐ผ
