R.I.P Keith
For anyone who didn't know (not that many people still read LJ anymore) the UPS driver that was shot and killed last Thursday (9/27) at the Accent Signage shootings in Minneapolis was our UPS guy. We saw him twice every day (except for the 2 months of vacation time he got every year) and I don't think I ever saw him without a big smile on his face. His funeral is today. I'm pretty sure damn near everyone who has ever met him, even if they didn't really know him very well, will miss seeing him around.
