Notes - Keith was a talented musician who played alto sax with big name bands
including Jack Wardlaw (Jacksonville, FL. , 1937), and the Dorsey
brothers, Tommy and Jimmy , about 1938-1940. He later became a music
teacher and assistant band director at the Lancaster Co. H.S. in
Kilmarnock, VA in 1947. He was also an excellent auto mechanic, and one
of the first mechanics to be certified by the Kaiser-Frazer Corp. when
they first started selling those cars in 1947.
