I knew Keith from my days off hauling K & L out of tri-cities. I know he was a devoted man and hard worker. If there is anything I can do for the family please contact me at 575-636-5776. With Love and deepest condolences, Ryan Aka Redneck.

We are so very sorry to hear about your son, may God be with you and bless you .

Keith was such a sweet, kind-hearted, and genuinely honest young man. He was a part of William and Mary (my parents) Hart's household from an early age. My brothers, Artavan and William "Willie", my husband, Cecil Rutledge, cousin, Steve Fields, affectionately nicknamed him "Peevine" as he was the youngest of the guys, yet, for my sons, Gene and Eddie, he was the "bigger brother" because he would walk them from his house to their grandparents' house on Berry Ridge Road when they rode the school bus from West View Elementary School. Although Cecil and I married in 1972, the age difference between my age and my siblings was significant, so by the time Keith was coming to their house, I am sure he filled a void that I left. My memories are filled with a little boy on my Daddy's tractor or hay wagon, on the bus, in the truck or car, sitting at the table in the kitchen, and basically just "being there"...he was essentially family. Our lives were enriched by his presence and we, along with our late parents, loved him. The farm has his footprints embedded in its soil, and echoes of his laughter will bring a smile to us as we think of him. Our hearts are broken and our tears are falling, however, our faith sustains us so much so that we know that God's Ways are not our ways; and somewhere in the clouds of despair, a rainbow will appear eventually, and the sun will shine even brighter because Keith is in the eternal presence of God, basking in His Glory and one day as God promises, we will see him again. So to the parents, uncles, aunts, cousins, extended family and friends, may you be comforted with the paraphrased scripture that "after a long night of weeping, there is joy in the morning." Rest In Peace, Keith, and "May the Angels sing thee to thy rest."

I know we are cousin that I have never met or even knew,we was but im so sorry this,as happen to u may u Rip cuz I buy u will be in my thoughts,and your parents will get justice in what in this foolish crime that shouldn't had to happen to a hard worker u was

Our hearts and prayers are with you as you say good bye to your son and our friend Keith Much Love Steve and Ruth Warn

I am so very sorry about Keith.I wont be able to come to the funeral but know i have been thinking about you both since i heard.Just know that i definitely know what your going thru as Mark was my only child also and he died suddenly also.God bless you both.

I personally did not have the privilege of knowing Keith but, all I've ever heard are good things about him. I know his death is so sad and so senseless in this world we live in today. I pray that in some way God will bring peace and comfort to his family. May God bless you. R.I.P. KEITH

My love and sympathy go out to my Tennessee family that have suffered this terrible loss. I never met Keith but I was looking forward to meeting him next October (2018) when we come to visit and meet our family in Johnson City & Jonesborough. I will look forward to meeting him in Heaven one day when it's my time to go to the Lord. Paulette & Kenneth, by the sweet notes that everyone has left here I can tell you that you did a wonderful job raising a really good boy. May God's love be with you both and may He comfort you in your time of loss. All my love, cousin Misty (California)

Keith was a great friend and I really miss him. He was a big help to me when I was going through my divorce and I will never forget him. I am on the road and will not be able to attend his funeral and I know there are many more like me because he had a lot of friends if they all showed up the church wouldn't hold them. Rest in peace big buddy

You have my sympathy. The only thing we can do is take it one day at a time. No one really knows what you are going through until they experience the same loss.

I'm so sorry for your loss. We live outside of Baton Rouge, La. I have read how good of a person Dillow was and I know God had a special place for him.

I live in Baton Rouge and I am so sorry for your loss , when I heard about this it broke my heart. I pray for your family daily and I want you to know that this is not how I want you to remember our city because we are not all horrible people like the one that took your son . We are tired of the crime in our city and I promise to you that I will fight for people like your son and God Bless You. I will continue to pray for you and your family .

Please know that many of us in Baton Rouge mourn your loss and offer our condolences. Your son was, through his efforts driving, helping us to recover from the devastating floods of last August. While he was taken from you in such a horrible way, I know you are secure in the knowledge that he now rejoicing with his Father in Heaven. May God cover you with His grace and comfort.

Odie, my friend you will be missed. I will miss the twice a year calls just to catch up and relive a day or two from the past. You were truly a salt of the earth man and this world is a little dimmer without you in it.

My heart goes out to you. I can't imagine losing a child In such a senseless act of violence.

So sorry this happened. Keith was always such a nice guy. My sympathy to his parents and may God's hand be on them through this difficult time.

I am so very sorry for your loss! I am praying for peace and comfort for you during tnis time. May Keith Rest in Peace!

I pray for understanding and peace to Kieth's family.
