I always looked up to Keith. He saved me more than a few times in junior high school when a few bullies cornered me! RIP Keith

Keith and I met when he was a patient at NFRMC. He was an absolute sweetheart. We clicked right away and he became my most favorite patient. Even when he was fighting the nasty C word, he had such good spirits. He cracked jokes, made us all laugh....even after he was discharged we kept in touch. <br>I went through a horrible break up, and he literally drove from states away just to take my kids and I bowling and to buy lunch.3 years ago, the engine blew in my car and I had posted online asking someone for a ride to work, and he immediately contacted me and told me he had a car I could use for as long as needed. 6 weeks later I was able to get my car fixed.We kept in touch even when he went on his adventures.<br>I was heartbroken when he told me the cancer returned and I prayed so hard he would beat it again.<br>I'll never forget him, or how he was always there when I was at my lowest. He was a true friend. I told my husband tonight "he was like a much older big brother and idk how I'm gonna handle him being gone"<br>I love you Keith. I'll miss you forever.
