Suddenly and sadly, Keith passed away at home on Thursday, March 26th, 2026. Predeceased by his parents, Roy and Elda Brooks (McFaul); his sisters, Sylvia (Jack Clements) and Faye Townsend (Roger); and his brother, Steven. He was the devoted husband of Kathy (Tracey), and a loving father of Devan and Amanda (Allison), and the late Darrin Keith. He was a proud grandpa to Oscar and Isabell.
Keith spent the majority of his career as a skilled tradesman. You could count on Keith. His unwavering work ethic spoke volumes. He could fix almost anything. He was the quiet anchor for his family who provided a profound sense of security while he was with us. Keith filled his later years farming the family homestead alongside Devan. His core family value was always to “make do with what you have.”He took a keen interest in facts and finding ways to improve any situation. Despite his hardworking nature, he never lost his sense of fun; he loved to tease, enjoyed a good joke, and was always ready to lend a helping hand to his neighbours and family. May the joy he found in later years farming the homestead and finding peace on the golf fairways remind us to appreciate the seasons of life well-lived. A devoted son, husband, guiding father, and cherished grandfather, Keith will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
A Memorial Service will be held on Sunday, April 12th, 2026 at the Elks Hall, Allisonville, at 1:00p.m. Following the service friends are invited to gather with the family to celebrate and share memories of Keith’s life. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital Foundation or the Canadian Cancer Society. Arrangements in the care of the Ainsworth Funeral Home, 288 Noxon Avenue, Wellington. Online condolences may be shared at www.ainsworthfuneralhome.com
