Warren M. Keith, 78, of Worcester, passed away peacefully after an illness in St. Vincent Hospital surrounded by his family. He was predeceased by his wife of 39 years, Marie (Lamothe) Keith, his son Michael, four sisters and two brothers. He is survived by two daughters, Michelle Nadow and her husband, Mark of Charlton, and Marcia Keith of Worcester and his beloved grandchildren Michael W. Keith, Jr., Victoria M. and Stephanie M. Nadow, a brother, Ronald B. Keith of Canada; two sisters, Shirley Thorne of Moncton, N. B. and Molly J. Saulnier of Montreal and several nieces and nephews.

He was born in Moncton, N.B., the ninth of ten children of Guy and Linda (Plume) Keith. Warren was co-owner of the former University Mobil service station in Worcester, and managed McFee & Newton service stations prior to that. He also served his country in the United States Navy.

Once you got past his “Archie Bunker” demeanor, Warren had a heart of gold and would go out of his way to help family and friends in need. He loved visits from his grandchildren and was extremely interested in what they were up to. He was also a life long hockey and Bruins fan.

His service is Friday, February 23rd at 10:00 a.m. in O’CONNOR BROTHERS FUNERAL HOME, 592 Park Avenue. Burial will follow in Worcester County Memorial Park. A visitation will be held from 9:00 until the time of the service in the funeral home.
