He was proceeded in death by his loving parents, Edwin Jr. and Vyonne Vogelsang and his brothers Edwin III and Larry. He leaves behind brothers Brent (Marcie), Ronnie, Steve, David (Kathy), and Paul, who will carry on his memory. Keith embraced life fully, finding joy in the simple pleasures. He adored spending time with his daughters and grandchildren, whether it was fishing, BBQing (especially hamdogs), playing the role as the Easter Bunny, or watching car races. His passion extended to attending car shows, AMC events, and tinkering with his beloved car toys. A true sports fan, he faithfully cheered on the St. Louis Blues Hockey team and took immense pride in attending his grandchildren’s sporting events. His friends and family remember him as a kind gentle soul who had the unique ability to see the good and everyone he encountered. Keith’s caring nature and infectious smile left in an indelible mark on the hearts of many. He was a wonderful father, brother, uncle and friend, always ready to lend a listening ear or helping hand.
