Still miss you every day Keith. You are always going to be my best friend. 

I was remembering a few funny things we had together.  the one time we had Tony's van wash and you were staring at me....I asked you what was wrong....all you keep saying was DON'T TELL TONY what just happened.  He was dripping from the water coming through the window he forgot to close..while going through the car wash.  i thought it was the first time i couldn't catch my breat from laughing so hard.  please don't tell tony, i said, to you ,you won't have to tell him '''' your soken wet from the window that is still open.  close the damn window.  oh those were the days.  i miss and love you Keith you went through hell here and know rest your children will go on.  bless you,

I don't know how I can get over this knowing your not here anymore .  I feel so empty inside trying to under stand what and why this happened to you.  you carried  a large log on your back and you always, always had a smile on your face.  I love you Keith,   i'll never say Goodbye to you, because in my heart you will always be in their with Tony.

oh Keith you will be missed for so many reasons I can't put it into words.  knowing you over 25years gave me peace of mind knowing you'd always be there for me.  With great sadness i will never say GOODBYE to you or Brian.  i'll miss your so much already my son, you always called me mommason. and i'll never forget that.  I love you Keith.

Condolences to Keith's family. He was a good man. Met him few years ago with not so good circumstances, and he helped me and my family through it. Becoming a friend fairly quickly. RIP Keith, my friend. Your sincerity and compassion and friendship will never be forgotten. Still have a wedding invite for you, we know you'll be there. Thank you for what you have done for me and mine. God bless and farewell for now my friend

So sorry for your loss. Will keep family in my prayers. RIP Keith.

I am so sorry for your loss. I would see Keith almost every week when my granddaughter met her mother. Nicole loved Keith and he looked after her when they were together. He was always friendly and sometimes there were conflicts however Keith was always a gentleman and handled the situation better than I would have. Nicole will miss the visits with Keith and she took the news very hard.

I was another co worker of Keith. He was always decent, kind and  dedicated to his goal of improving himself. To pass so young was never his intention. He took pride in his health and  was always trying to do his best. He will be missed by everyone who's life he touched. My sincere  condolences to the family he left behind in his sudden and never anticipated passing. Just know that he was well liked by everyone and that was because he was a gentle and kind  soul.

Our Condolences and Prayers to Matt and the whole family.

To Keith's family, please accept our sincerest sympathy on Keith's passing. He was one of the most upbeat, kind, and compassionate people we have had the pleasure to know. He loved his family very much and would easily share this fact. He will be greatly missed. May God embrace you all in comfort during this sad time.

So sorry to hear of Keith's passing.  My prayers are with his family.  If Hope, Matt, or Lori need anything, even a shoulder, I am only a phone ca away.

I'm speaking for all of the Senior Companions and their clients in Suffolk VA that workerd with Keith when he was a care coordinator with Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia:  We loved him like a brother and he always went the extra mile for his friends.  He never gave up when adversity came his way and he was the hardest working gentleman we ever knew.  He spoke often with love of his children and family.  We will truely truely miss him and send our sincere condolences to his friends and family .  Asking for our Heavenly Father's strength and comfort for you at this difficult time and confirming  that Keith is alive in our Lord and his good deeds will always be treasured by us and those he touched in his short life here.  It was a Blessing to know him and to work together caring for our senior neighbors in Suffolk and other cities in Southampton Roads.

My deepest sympathy to the Vanacore family, especially to Hope.  I know how much her dad meant to her.

My deepest condolences to the Vanacore family and all of Keith's friends.  It is truly a shock to hear of his passing. I've known Keith since the mid '80's when we were college room mates living on Madison Ave in Albany.He was one of the nicest guys anyone could know.  Always there to lend you a helping hand. I'm truly saddened to hear that he is no longer here with us. God bless, Keith.  You will be sorely missed.

Keith was my college roommate.  I am shocked and deeply saddened to hear of his passing.  Keith was one of the kindest and most even tempered people I have known, he lived by the credo  "look for the best in others". A true friend you could depend on, Keith was like a brother to me. I can't believe he is gone so soon.   Love you, Keith!

My deepest condolences to Keiths family. Keith and I worked together this past year. Keith was one of the hardest workers I have ever met, he always wanted to work. The only time he wanted off was to spend time with his children, he spoke very highly of them. Thank you for everything Keith you helped me out when I was in a time of need and you were always there to talk and give a helping hand. You will be missed buddy.

My dearst Matt and Hope.. May God be with you thru these difficult times.. love you Aunt Mary
