Obituary of Keith Bacon

Keith Allen Bacon

August 29, 1956 - July 16, 2022

It is with great sadness that the family of Keith Bacon announce his peaceful passing at home at the age of 65, after a short but courageous and dignified battle with Mesothelioma.

Keith was born in Birch Hills on August 29th, 1956, to Katherine Schrader and Milo Bacon. Keith was always an outdoorsman who lived in and around the Prince Albert area. He enjoyed fishing, ski-doing, riding horses, gopher hunting but especially looked forward to camping and moose hunting with the guys. You can guarantee Keith was always willing to go for a drive on the country roads the days of when booze cruising once was. Keith wore a mischievous grin and kept everyone on their toes with his quick-witted comments. Keith worked at Selanders from 1977 to 1993 and enjoyed the time he worked there. Filling his three years with other odd jobs in between, Keith then started working with Broda Construction in 1996, where he made many friends that became like family. He was always a hardworking man that took pride in his work. Keith worked at Broda till the time he became sick and could no longer work. Keith met the love of his life Sherry Brown and soon after their first son Dale was born, they married in 1976. They welcomed their daughter Tina and completed their family with their son Duane. Keith’s most treasured and greatest joys were his grandchildren.

Keith leaves to mourn his son Dale (Kim) Brown and their children Morgan and Chase; daughter Tina (Bill) McWatters and their children Tasha and Joel; late son Duane’s children Joshua and Britt-Lyn Bacon; sister Ruth Ethier; brother Rick (Kathleen) Bacon; sister Ella (Stan) Kotelko; brother Calvin (Barb) Schrader; brother in-law Wilford Brown; sister in-law Marilyn (Roger) Linfitt; brother in-law Charlie (Donna) Brown; sister in-law Sharon Brown; special nieces and nephews Debra Gustafson, TerryLynn Connoly, Danny Brown, Vicki Parent along with many more nieces and nephews.
