Hi Faith:
Keith is sorely missed.  Taken from us way too early.

Regards.

Tom

Brother, I love and miss you so terribly every single day -   You are in my thoughts all day every day - but I know you are in God's loving care - so for that I have great joy - and you are in the company of Mom and Dad, Uncle Wes, Aunt Aud, and all our Uncles, Aunts and cousins - all missed
Love you Bro - Curt

I sure do miss my friend and I know many others do as well. A good person taken too soon.

I was unable to attend Kieth's service, I will miss him and he is in my prayers..  Tim Stack

I, like many of us,  considered Keith as our brother, friend, colleague, and sports enthusiast partner. The adventures we have shared over the past several decades will always bring a smile or laugh with the most pleasant of memories.  Sincerely appreciate having the honor and pleasure of having Keith, Faith, and his Airsped family, in our lives.  All our love, Barb & Len Lesiak

Keith was loved and respected by his good friends in Gurnee.  We miss him and will always be inspired by his humility, his wonderful outlook, sense of humor and passion.  He would do anything to help a friend.  Our loss is deep and our memories will endure.

Our deepest condolences to Faith & the Airsped family, 

Sincerely, 
Mohawk Global Logistics

Having Keith as a friend for so many years and getting to know Faith has been a true gift that both Barb and I will be eternally grateful for.

Faith, Curt, and the whole Airsped Family.    I probably have been a broker for nearly as long as Airsped was in business, so have known known Keith for a few years.   His loss, so sudden and saddening, reminds us all that we're not immortal.  My heartfelt sympathy goes out to all of you, and although it doesn't provide much comfort at this time, many many many share in your sense of loss.   Prayers for comfort going up for all of you.

Curt ... It was so sad to hear of your bro's sudden passing.  I know how close you and Keith have been your entire lives sharing common interests together.  But most of all, your common bond with the Lord.  Stay strong as I know your are my loyal long time friend.

I am so saddened about my friend Keith. He and I served together in PADS-third Monday; second shift since the start. I won't see you tomorrow night my friend and that makes me very sad. I am glad you are in heaven. You will be missed!

Our family is heartbroken at the passing of the dearest of friends.  Keith was generous and gregarious, best friend to Ken for 66 years, Best Man in our wedding 29 years ago and Godparent to Ben.  He is dearly missed, a void that can only be filled by wonderful memories.  Our most sincere condolences to Faith, Curtis and the rest of the family.

Beth, Ken and Ben Marecek

My entire family is so very sorry & devastated to hear about Keith's passing.  Such a nice guy that we were lucky enough to meet and get to know over the years.  From my parents (Gilgore's) to my kids & siblings families (Marecek's, Wilkinson's) Our thoughts and prayers are with you.  With deepest sympathy - RIP Keith.

Gail Van Oever and Family

I have great joy that my brother has gone home to the Lord and at the same time my heart is broken in so many ways - I love you brother so much and will miss the many things we did almost every week for all these many years - Curt    73rd Psalm verses 22-26 now a favorite of mine - applies to Keith for sure!!

I have been blessed just knowing Keith for the past 40 years.  Many a lunch has been shared between us and Keith and Faith were kind enough to come to my wedding in Las Vegas eleven years ago.  He has been a great friend and both my wife and I will miss him greatly!  May he be blessed for eternity!!!
Jim and Sheryl Crook
