Dearest Uncle Keith, you always said an orange a day was the key to good health and longevity. I dare say we will all be buying oranges a little bit more often.
No Christmas or trip back to Stawell will ever be the same. You were always on our visit list. You were always at our Christmas table for lunch. You’d bring in your neatly wrapped roses chocolates without fail and your hand writing was magnificent- a dying art in this modern world now. You could hold a great conversation about world news or the stock market right till the end and it was admired by everyone who spent time with you.
Always a pleasure to be around. We will miss you Uncle Keith and your beautiful writen letters. Love always Marissa, Steven, Marco and Sofia xo
We remember uncle Keith with great respect and enjoyed his company and many conversations over the years…Helen and Robert Bertoncello

I remember uncle Keith wound be at every Christmas gathering in Stawell I attended from when I was 5 to my last , a man who was always ready for a chat no matter what the topic. I remember an early memory of him traveling by him self to stay with us in Singleton and attending my Athletics carnival. Thanks Uncle Keith !!
Allison and Family , my thoughts and Prayer’s go out to you at this sad time , Sue Huddleston .

Dearest Uncle Keith, We all admired how knowledgeable & switched on you were are such a great age, you never forgot a thing & were always interested in what was happening in our lives.
Christmas just won’t be the same without you. Listening to your stories & gifting us with your perfectly wrapped boxes of Milk tray chocolates will definitely be missed, the wrapping was millimetre perfect, it was the best part of the gift by far!
Rest In Peace Uncle Keith, you will be sadly missed by us all & you will always be remembered as the remarkable, gentleman that you were.

Uncle Keith has been a part of our family holidays my whole life. This is the reality of living interstate and mostly apart from your extended family. We have been comforted knowing that Keith, in his later years, has had support and assistance from our much loved Stawell family. Thank you.
In recent years, he has been our link to my nan and pop and his generation, and we will miss visiting him. He was a great conversationalist, always interested in what was happening in our lives and the world at large.
RIP Uncle Keith
