Keith Walton

On Monday, November 13, William "Keith" Walton, devoted and compassionate husband, dad and grampy, loyal son and brother and committed friend to so many, died suddenly and much too soon, surrounded by the love and adoration of his family. Keith leaves a giant hole in our hearts and will be missed by so many: his wife Jo; his children and partners Kyle and Emily, Jessie, Luke and Emma, Kayla and Cody; his grandsons Davyn and Jackson; siblings Ken and Carol, Cheryl and Phil, Lynne and Chuck; father-in-law Harold; inlaws Jennifer, Jeff and Laura, and Jacqueline and Mike; and his beloved dog Wally. Keith will also be fondly remembered by his many nieces, nephews, extended family and dear friends. He is predeceased by his mother Margaret; dad Jack; mother-in-law Evelyn; and brother-in-law Geoff (Hicke). Keith was an inspiring example of integrity, loyalty and commitment in his role as superintendent at the Mark O'Meara Golf Course at Grandview. He was a passionate community supporter and proud member of the Stephenson District Lions Club, avid curler, an expert fire-tender and maple syrup maker. With Keith's passing, we've truly lost one of the great ones. Heartfelt thanks to the compassionate staff at the Stratford General Hospital.
