Well, I don’t want to say “there's not much to say”, because there is, there is so much to say just so hard to stare it in the face and put it into words. It cannot be explained and it cannot be looked passed
There is another huge void in this town, which is going to be near impossible to get over. It’s never easy and yes everyone goes through loss, that’s not what I'm worried about. It’s who he's been choosing in which I cannot understand. Yet it makes sense in the fact that he is taking the best we have, maybe they were meant to be somewhere else; it could only makes sense for these two.

Keith, how to start? I met you in about 3 grade when me and Jason Martin use to come over and play Lion King for super Nintendo and computer games in your basement, we also use played soccer in Jason's yard, ever since then I’ve been more blessed for having you in my life. You grew up becoming a role model for me and for anyone in this town. There aren’t too many people I can say that are younger then me that I looked up to this much. I would say you were one in a million but there is no one else out there like you, there never will be. You've made a huge impact on this world at such a young age, and you've made this town what it is. You will forever remain a legend here and in our hearts as one of the best, loving, outgoing, intelligent, athletic friends ever, and I am honored to be able to call myself a friend of yours. That’s what it comes down to, Keith Marcola, what do you think of when you think of Keith? There is no one word to describe such a person. What do we think of when we hear that name? All-star? Quarterback? Pitcher? Shortstop? All around good basketball player? Solitarian? Ken? Hilarious? Caring? Loving? Amazing?........I'm going to have look past the individual material accomplishments that no other one person could have made true in such a short time and go with the one word that I think comes as close to encapsulating you as possible, AMAZING....... Keith you were amazing and will forever remain in our hearts.... We miss and love you so much; you won’t have a problem making such a wonderful place home. Say “Hi” to Emily and Justin for me, they’ll show you around.
