Keith became a master carpenter working for Utterbeck Construction and various other companies. He was a very good framer and was quite mechanically inclined. He enjoyed working on cars and built a '36 Ford Hot Rod for his father. He loved Corvettes and he eventually acquired a late model Z06, fulfilling one of his fondest dreams. He was an avid motorcyclist and built several choppers. Though he feigned disinterest in pets, he loved animals and his son, Anthony's cat, Finn. He enjoyed time outdoors fishing and snowboarding with his boys. Keith was a loving and sentimental person with an intense zest for life.
