ROBINSON, Keith Franklin
August 10, 1932 - April 24, 2016
Claresholm, AB - Stavely, AB

Keith Robinson of Stavely passed away on Sunday, April 24, 2016 at the age of 83 years young. Keith is lovingly remembered by his wife, June of 62 years; children, Glenda (John) Argue of Marwayne, Lee (Terryl) of Banff, Shari (Roger) Dorscheid of Coaldale and Kelly (Lorne) High of Elnora; 14 grandchildren, Brett, Justin (Shoshanna), Leisje (Dion), Taylor, Tori, Lexi, Mikayla, Colton, Emerson, Zach (Megan), Brenden (Dedith), Shaelyn (Josh), Logan and Jacey; 5 great grandchildren, Camden, Shaylynn, Keegan, Lilli and Kaaden; as well as Pepsi, "the little dog".

Keith was a Brand Inspector in the MD of Willow Creek for 35 years as well as several years being a Director on the Board for the Bar U Ranch. However, his greatest passions in life were his family and horses. Some of the best years of his life were spent with June guiding in the backcountry for Holiday on Horseback in Banff. One of Keith's favorite saying was "Why Walk when you can Ride."

A Celebration of Keith's Life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Keith’s memory to the Parkinson Society of Southern Alberta, #102, 5636 Burbank Crescent SE, Calgary, AB, T2H 1Z6 or to a charity of your choice.

I just heard the news and am very sorry to hear of Keith's passing. I remember as a kid when I first met Keith in the backcountry of Banff and how much larger than life he appeared, he had a big personality. I always looked up to Keith and I think that might be why I became a Brand Inspector. I would like to pass on my deepest sympathies to the entire family and on behalf of Livestock Identification Services we thank him for his years of dedicated service to the livestock industry. He will be sadly missed.
