KEITH ANTHONY ROBERT It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of a wonderful husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and friend on Thursday, July 20, 2006 at the young age of 40 years. Remaining to cherish Keith's memory are his loving wife Sabrina; and his three sons whom he loved so dearly, Jerry-Lee, Derek, and Adrian. Also mourning his loss are his mother Shirley; brother Bruce (Margaretha); nephews, Aaron and Jordan; and his special grandpa Ben Driedger. He is also survived by mother-in-law Darlene Olaiya; sister-in-law Nina; nephews Dylon and Tyrell; grandma Lilia Schultz; as well as aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends too numerous to mention. Keith was predeceased by his father Paul, grandparents Sylvain and Evelyn Robert, grandmother Evelyn Driedger, uncle Alan Robert, and cousin Duane Robert. Keith was born to Paul and Shirley Robert on August 29, 1965 at the Morris General Hospital. He took his education at Morris School, and upon completion he entered the work force. Keith worked for Superior Bus, and Brunet Construction, operating heavy equipment. He then went to work for Romeo Berard Custom Harvesting in the U.S.A. From Morris he moved to Emerson, where he met his loving wife Sabrina. Keith worked at Ayotte Farms, then the Border Valley School Division for a number of years, and eventually formed his own cleaning company, K R Cleaning. He took on another venture when he purchased Beautiful Green Grass, which he was involved in until his passing, working closely with his brother Bruce and son Jerry-Lee. Keith enjoyed his children, snowmobiling, and quading, but his main passion was cooking up a storm for family and friends. Thank you to the staff at the Morris General Hospital, Dr. Fraser, and special thanks to Heather. Thanks also to Jeff Wiebe.
