KEITH NORMAN GLOVER
Keith passed away on August 24, 2024, at Deer Lodge Centre at age 82.
He is survived by his wife Gail; children, Shannon, Pam, Garth (Laurel); grandchildren, Naomi, Sarai, Matt, Ari, Tessa, Yaël, Mia; brother Jack (Jackie); sisters-in-law, Jessie Glover and Candice Phillips; and special cousin Jane Sayer.
Keith was predeceased by his infant son Paul; parents, Cecil and Elizabeth; sister Margaret Ann Beckett (Bill); brothers, Robert, Wally (Florence); in-laws, George, Olive and Lyle Phillips.
Keith loved Manitoba and his home was his castle. He preferred a simple life, with his wants and needs always being minimal. Over the years he especially enjoyed his beloved family, hunting with good friend Ray Johnson, lifelong friendships with Dan Bell and Ken Schmidtke (deceased), his job at CRA, crosswords, Jeopardy!, the Jets, and his precious dogs.
Keith and his family appreciate the excellent medical care he received from Drs. J. Elkin, E. Salamon, O. Lamai, A. Brown, and the kind, caring staff of 2 West at Deer Lodge Centre.
Cremation has taken place and a family gathering of remembrance will be held at a later date.
If desired, donations may be made in Keith’s memory to the Winnipeg Humane Society or to a charity of choice.

Keith and my journey began at the age of 3. We were neighbors in Roland until grade 4 {age 10} when my family moved to Winnipeg, then to Alberta and finally B.C. We spent many summers together at uncle Earl's farm with such fond memories. I was so thankful that I spent a couple of days with Keith just 2 weeks ago; just like old times, playing crib. I will always cherish the times we had together. - Posted by: Dan Bell (friend) on: Aug 29, 2024
