    Keith/Eagle Eye passed away this morning

    Last year has been a ride of ups and downs depending on what the latest MRI showed, but this morning Keith lost his battle with cancer. It is a real loss to the everyone who knew him, but especially so to wife, kids and grandchild. More than once Keith has came through for me when I needed him, yet I could do nothing for him. He only quit working 39 days ago. I wish he had quit sooner. Many of you knew him and have wished him well through his struggle. It helped him I'm sure. Almost everyone that has Dutchware has products made by him.

    EDIT--Notes and condolences can be sent to this wife;

    So sorry to hear this, Dutch. We grieve, but not so deeply as you who were close to him and supported him in his struggle. Prayers for all of you.

    Ohh man! I'm bummed to hear this news. Dang! Thoughts and prayers to all concerned. I met him once and he made an impression. A good man was what I walked away thinking. So sorry to hear this.
    I like refried beans. That's why I wanna try fried beans, because maybe they're just as good and we're just wasting time. You don't have to fry them again after all.

    Sorry to hear that. Working as long as he did probably helped him keep going. Be happy you could let him.
