So sad to hear of Keith's passing. He was one of my friends growing up in our neighborhood in Cottonwood Heights. We were a tight knit little group and have so many memories. Bonus! He married one of my best friends there, Gloria. I was thrilled they had found each other. My heart goes out to sweet Gloria, their family and the Johns family. You're in my prayers.
Gloria I'm so sorry for your loss.
Thinking of you, and wishing you moments of peace and comfort. We’re so very sorry for your loss.
