Keith was a kind and gentle man with a warm heart and a wonderful sense of humor. He was deeply loved by his family and many friends and will be missed beyond words.

Keith was a devoted and loving husband to his wife, Susanne Strohecker, with whom he shared 37 years of marriage. Above all else, Keith was a devoted family man. The time he spent surrounded by those he loved was among his greatest joys.

Keith is survived by his daughters, Andrea Koch of St. Clair, Pennsylvania, and Heather Ruscavage of Minersville, Pennsylvania; his stepson, Edward Joseph Hunt III; and his grandchildren, Amber Snody of Pottsville, Mackenzie Stotelmyer of Pottsville, and Angel Strohecker of Mifflinburg, Pennsylvania, Laura Hunt of Pottsville and Shayne Hunt of Pottsville; his beloved great-grandchildren, Addilyn, Declan, James and Delilah.

Keith was preceded in death by his parents, Mary Jane Kreiling and Albert Lamar Strohecker and his stepson, Thomas Matthew Hunt.

Keith was a hardworking man who spent part of his career working in the coal mines and many years as a welder, working on large manufactured trucks. He took pride in working with his hands and providing for the family.

Those who knew Keith will remember him for much more than the work he did. He was a kind, gentle, soft-hearted, and loving man who enjoyed laughing, joking, and bringing smiles to those around him. He was loved by many and formed friendships that he treasured throughout his life.

Keith had a great love for the outdoors and especially enjoyed hunting, bow hunting, and fishing. Most of all, he treasured spending time with his family, his grandchildren, and his beloved wife, Susanne. He was also a member of St. Andrew's Church in Valley View, Pennsylvania.

Keith will be remembered as a devoted husband, a loving father, grandfather, great-grand father, a hardworking man, and a cherished friend. His kindness, gentle spirit, sense of humor, and deep love for his family will remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
