I was shocked to hear of Keith's passing. We had a lot of good times and laughs back in the 1980's, and I still remember them like they were recent. Sense of humor, and loyalty to friends are what I remember about Keith. My condelences to the Lombardi family. Rest in Peace

The loss of Keith has hit us both deeply. He was fighting the battle, but our Lord called him home as the battle was done.
We are so glad in our moving to FL and Keith moving to Fl, our paths in life crossed. He will always be in our hearts with very fond memories.

Keith loved to live life, whether it be golfing, fishing, or riding his motorcycle. He put his all into his work and many of his friends, including myself benefited from his ethic. Keith, you have been my friend and colleague and I thank you for it. God Bless.

Bike week will not be the same without my friend and colleague. He was incredibly passionate and driven in all that he did. His loyalty to his industry and friends were beyond reproach. He will be missed by many and certainly not forgotten. It is an honor to call him friend. My sincerest condolences to his family and daughter Brittany.

Uncle Carl and family:
It's the little things, the small, everyday occurrences that you'll remember. The laughs, the stories, the smiles. And even though it seems like you can never recover from your loss, it is these very memories that will help push the pain away and bring back the smiles. Keith will always be held in your heart.

Good things come in small packages. I love presents - and Keith was my present. We were more than friends. We were family. He was my brother, he was my work husband, and he was my patient. Brittani was the love of his life. Lillian was his soulmate. The Lombardi family has gained a Florida family. We share your love of Keith and his loss.

My Dear Sweet Italian Combare", Keith: We shared more than most you and I - we shared a culture we both loved strongly and openly and as people of our culture, we do all things passionately and you above all I''ve ever known showed that passion in everything you did. You were an awesome teacher; I learned so much from you that I take with me throughout the rest of my life. I will never forget you, your great smile, that crazy way you had about you where you could push everyone''s buttons the wrong way and enjoy every minute of it just watching their reactions! I''ll miss that, but you mostly; you left a huge void in my life and who will I cook for now? I''ll pass the rest of my life all the richer for having known you, sweet Prince. You have taken residence in my heart. My deepest sympathy and condolences to the Lombardi family and friends.
Comare", Anna

Keith: I didnt get to work with you for too long but by far you have been one of my favorite administrators to work for. Ill miss your (very) dry sense of humor and the way you always got involved with the social services department. My condolences to the Lombardi family.

"Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away they were meant to be there. They serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be; your roommate, your neighbor, professor, long lost friend, lover or even a complete stranger who, when you lock eyes with them, you know that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way." ~ Anon.

Keith was a larger than life character whom I first met at The Palms and who, unwittingly, was one of the pivotal influences which set me along the path that led to where I am today. I know he was also a huge influence in many other peoples' lives and that I am not alone in feeling the world a little emptier now that he is no longer here. I enjoyed our interactions over the years immensely and pray for him, his beloved daughter and loved ones at this sad time.

Who would have thought a couple of southern girls would have bonded with a biker? Of course we cannot put into words how much we will miss you. All the harassing phone calls and friendly jabs you given us over the years can never be replaced. We were truly the lucky ones to have such a wonderful person put a stamp on our heart and stump on our toes at the same time. You were truly a blessing to call a co-worker and our friend. Our industry will suffer a loss without you as will our hearts. May God wrap his arms around your family to comfort them during this difficult time. This Christmas we will celebrate the life you lived, the ones you've touched, and the fight you fought. This Ones For you Keith !! We may have lost a wonderful friend but heaven has gained another angel.

My deepest sympathies to the Lombardi family. I had the pleasure of working with Keith for the past several years. I appreciated his knowledge and wit and enjoyed talking with him about Boston sports teams among other things. I hope that you find peace and comfort in the wonderful memories you have and take pride in Keith's legacy as it is described by his family and friends in this guestbook.

Thank you all for your kind words and condolences. My brother new the value of friendship - he had an ability to impact others and took full advantage of it. I believe the measure of a man is seen in the quality of his relationships and ultimately his friends. He was was relied upon and a tremendous resource. He was not an easy man to please but when you got Keith's endorsement, his time, and or a compliment it was valued. He was a Lombardi.

His nieces and nephews (including great nieces and nephews) loved him and couldn't wait to visit with their uncle. We will work hard to make sure they remember him. To truly understand him was to experience life with him. He always referred to himself as independent but I am not sure that was entirely true. I know what my responsibility is and can only hope to deliver to meet his expectations.

I hope this emptiness I feels passes but there will always be a void that I must prepare for. I believe he lived with a similar void.

I do see him in Brittani. He now rests with our mother, Carmella.

Good bye little big brother...
Kevin
