Keith was born on March 6th 1950 in Sherbrooke and was the son of the late Augustus and Clare (Spanks) Wilson.  He worked in the forestry industry for over 40 years, with his brother Sherm.  He enjoyed nature and recording the many species of birds, plants, and animals.  He loved going fishing and taking long drives. He enjoyed watching boxing and hockey. He could be found playing crib, reading, or doing something outside.  He was an award-winning table tennis player, who shared his joy of the game with others. Keith is survived by his brother, Sherman Wilson, Sherbrooke; sister, Doreen (Peg) Rudolph, Dartmouth; son, Jason (Shannon) Wilson, Liscomb; daughters, Tanya (Reid) Doucette, Saskatchewan; and Tracy Wilson, Ottawa; as well as his eight grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.
