Keith Klein, 73, passed away peacefully in his sleep at home on July 4, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family. Born on March 14, 1953, in Brooklyn, New York, Keith lived a life defined by hard work, integrity, and devotion to his family. He proudly served his country in the United States Navy before receiving an honorable medical discharge.

Keith earned his master's degree while serving as General Manager of Proner Comatel, demonstrating the determination and work ethic that would characterize his entire career. In 2006, he and his family made Maine their home, where he continued his career as General Manager of Target Marketing.

Above all else, Keith was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend. Everything he did was with his family in mind. Through quiet sacrifice and unwavering dedication, he made certain those he loved were always cared for and never wanted for anything.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Linda; his son, Brandon, and daughter-in-law, Ashlyn; his daughter, Elicia; his cherished grandsons, Jace and Spencer; and his loyal three-legged Catahoula, Boomer, who was his faithful companion.

Keith had a lifelong love of baseball. A devoted New York Mets fan, he found great joy in watching the game and spent many years coaching Brandon's baseball teams, creating memories that would last a lifetime. He also enjoyed hunting, fishing, and spending time on the water, finding peace in Maine's outdoors.

Known as an old-fashioned gentleman, Keith believed in treating everyone with kindness, respect, and honesty. His quiet strength, dependable character, and unwavering values left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him. Friends, neighbors, and coworkers had nothing but kind words to say about him—a reflection of the life he lived and the character he embodied. He was a faithful member of Calvary Baptist Church in Warren, Maine, where his faith remained an important part of his life.

Keith's greatest legacy is not found in his professional accomplishments, but in the family, he loved so deeply, the values he lived by, and the countless lives he touched through his kindness and example. Though he will be profoundly missed, his love, wisdom, and gentle spirit will live on through the family he cherished and in the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Family and friends are invited to honor and remember Keith at a visitation on Saturday, July 25, 2026, from 2 to 4 p.m., at Burpee, Carpenter & Hutchins Funeral Home, 110 Limerock Street, Rockland.
