Paula, I am so sorry for your loss of Keith. I remember how you two would walk out to lunch at work and in my mind I can still see you two.

Talking about our families, Red Sox and Orioles or Keith's newest cooking gadget he was a good friend and will be truly missed.
My condolences to Paula and families, it was a gift to have known him.

Hamlet family,  Keith was a great guy.  We were teammates at CHS. He was fun to be around and was a really good Pitcher.  I will remember him, his curveball and sense of humor fondly.  My sincere condolences to all of you at this time.

This is heartbreaking. Keith and Paula are both dear friends and wonderful colleagues. Many times Keith and I passed going into or leaving Paula's office and he was always quick with a cheerful comment, quick joke or a winning smile. My heart aches for this deeply felt loss and I pray for you to find peace. Remember to treasure the joy and precious memories Keith brought to you, your family and the great many friends you have.

Keith was one of the best..I enjoyed working with him and don't ever remember a cross word between us. Soar high Keith and keep watch over your family..

Keith will be missed by everyone who knew him. I had the good fortune to sit beside Keith in the “fishbowl” at Sperry in 2001-2002, and he was a true friend and gentleman. I will treasure the memories of working with him. He and Paula were always so nice to me. My sincere condolences to Paula, Devin, Alyssa, and all of Keith’s family. Happy to hear that Keith had been saved and that we will meet again in Heaven one day. 

During my Sperry Machine Shop years, Keith was a very special friend and co-worker. Many, many good memories, working together, teasing and horseplay. After he was was saved, I was blessed with the privilege of attending one of the church sermons that he presented.
Keith was a steady friend to his Sperry co-workers and was never bashful to speak of his love for his wife and children.
May God bless the Hamlett family with an extra measure of His good grace during these sad, difficult days. 

Paula,
I am so sorry to hear about Keith.  My heartfelt condolences and prayers go out to you and your family in this difficult time.
Very Sincerely,
Andy
