Deepest condolences to Keithâ??s family from Graham and Marie Farley. Keith was a hard working kind person who always had a smile. He came out for many rig moves always worked safely and was a great mentor to people around him. He drove millions of safe miles. Most of all he was a family man who put them first. A true hard working Albertan. He will be sadly missed by all who had the pleasure to have known him RIP Graham and Marie
