Obituary of William Keith McLean

William Keith McLean "Cease" 1930 - 2018 It is with the deepest sorrow that the family of Keith McLean announces his passing on Tuesday, August 14, 2018 at 87 years of age in Cranbrook, BC. Keith was born on November 18, 1930 in Penticton, BC. He possessed great wit, enthusiasm, a zest for life, was the eternal optimist and liked nothing better than a well-executed practical joke…of which there were many! Keith was a "glass half full" type of man and lived his life without hesitation or fear. We all love him and will miss him greatly. Keith is survived by his loving wife Joan P. McLean, his daughters Diana St. Jean, Heather McElhaney and Jackie Alberts, his son Greg McLean, sister Audrey "Didi" Busch, eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren. A gathering to celebrate Keith's life will be held at McPherson Funeral Home in Cranbrook on Monday, August 20th, 2018 from 12:00 pm until 2:00 pm. Those wishing to make a memorial donation in honour of Keith may do so to the: Alzheimer Society of BC, #300, 828 - West 8th Avenue, Vancouver, BC, V5Z 1E2. Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at: www.mcphersonfh.com
