Keith was my one of my very best friends from 8th Grade on. He was brilliant and witty and so funny and random and clever. He became an architect and lived in the Dallas area. I feel lucky to have known him and I miss him so much.
The next time you're in the food court of the Quail Springs Mall, look around and remember Keith. He was one of the key designers of that space. When I go there, I think of him and smile.

Really sorry to hear this. I remember Keith, though I'm not sure what classes I had him in.
