Brendan Fevola expressed his grief, recalling Keith’s humor and love.
"We are going to miss your humour and quick wit. I’m gonna miss having a cold one with you, mate.

All daughters expressed heartfelt messages for their grandfather. Mia wrote:
"On Friday, heaven gained an angel. Rest in peace, granddad, love you forever. Never failed to make us laugh."
