WILLOWS, John Keith
'Keith' passed away, at the Rosamond Unit of the Almonte General Hospital, surrounded by the love of his family on Friday, January 6, 2017, at the age of 86.
Keith Willows, of Boyd's Settlement, cherished husband of Darlene (nee` Stanley) was predeceased by his beloved first wife, Jean (nee` Craig) in 1999.
Keith was predeceased by his parents, Russell and Merle (nee` Tennant), and his siblings, Gerald (late Doris) and Dorothy (late Cecil) Munro and by his sister in law, Dorothy (Lyle) Reid.
Keith was both a respected and loving father to: Shirley (late Mike) Steele, of Perth, Barry (Kelly), of Glen Tay, Glen (Connie), of Perth, Kevin (Vicky), of Balderson and Karen (Rick) Tysick, of Innisville, as well as to his 3 step-children: Scott, Gary and Kiar.
Grandpa will be sadly missed by his loving grandchildren: Ashley, Cody, Brooke (Ricky), Ben, Alex, Hanna, Owen, Shane, Ryan (Amanda), Jason (Abbie), Colin (Rachel) and Matt (Amber).
Loving step-grandfather to his 8 step-grandchildren, Keith will also be fondly remembered by his sister in law, Lois (Graham) Mowatt, of Perth.
Also left to mourn his loss are his surviving siblings: Feryn (late Jack) McGill, of Pakenham, Elva (late Alvin) Kelford, of Carleton Place, Ellen (Gilles) Lalonde, of Ottawa, Sterling (Barbara), of Drummond Centre, Beth (late Bill) Craig, of Ottawa, Raymond (Shirley) of Boyd's Settlement, and Heather, of Innisville.
A proud dairy farmer and woodsman for many decades, Keith supplied the Balderson Cheese Company with milk for their dairy products for many years. His woodworking and carpentry skills were used to build log homes and many wood projects.
To honour his wishes, cremation has taken place with a private funeral to be held at Boyd's United Church, Boyd's Settlement, at a future date. Private spring interment will be held at Boyd's Methodist Church Cemetery.
There will be a public celebration of Keith's life to be held at Timber Run Golf Club, Lanark, on Saturday, January 14th, from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm.
