To the family of Paul Keeler, my sympathies. I got to know Paul (and Peggy) while founding the Sidney E. King Foundation for the Arts here in Bowling Green. I can’t tell you how much help Paul provided our group, and myself, specifically. Any questions I had about Sidney, I knew to contact Paul. He was such an integral part of keeping the Art Center open and honoring Sidney. I made a true friend in Paul and I will miss him terribly. If there is any way that I or the SEK Foundation can be of help to you, his family, please don’t hesitate to let me know. Peggy knows my #. Again, so sorry for your loss.

It is such sad news to hear of Paul’s passing. Although I have not seen him in the last many years, I fondly remember our formative years at Montfort Academy from the first through eighth grades. We parted ways to attend different high schools but actively took part in the CYO at St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception. Paul always had a smile and was ready to play a joke on someone. He is one of those happy memories I cherish. May God give you peace. My prayers are with you. With love, Therese Mountjoy Marx

Paul and the Keeler family attended St. Mary’sCatholic Church in Fredericksburg for many years. My sister, Florence and her husband. Dr. David Hall were in charge of the CYO youth group, and that is where we came to meet the Keelers. We were greatly saddened to learn of his passing and send our kind thoughts and prayers to his family. He was special then- always great fun and from reading the FLS article, he never changed. My sisters, Bobby and Margaret still live in Stafford County (Route 3 east toward Dahlgren) Paul was a year older than me and my youngest sister lives in Atlanta, GA and my husband and 3 of our sons live in Florida. I’m sure Sharon remembers us. Our kind thoughts and prayers go out to you. Sincerely, Grace Barrett Dahmke.
