Keith was born on May 5, 1926 in Pittsburg Pennsylvania to Keith W. Lemmon Sr and Mary G. Lemmon (Black). He moved to Michigan around the age of 5 and attended school in Detroit.

If you asked 100 different people who Keith was you would get 100 different responses. An Electrician. A Corvette lover. A stain glass maker. An avid reader. A lover of sun and sea. But to his family his biggest role was that of a dedicated family man. He was always there to help his kids and grandkids with household projects, both big and small.
