KEITH LIONEL FRANCIS PRESCOTT It is with great sadness that the family of Keith Lionel Francis Prescott announces his passing on Saturday, July 4, 2009 at the Grace Hospital at the age of 87 years. Remaining to forever cherish Keith's memories are his sons Lyle and Mike; daughter Jo-; son-in-law Roger and grandchildren Leah (Dan) and Christopher. Keith was born on April 19, 1922 to the late Harold and Doris Prescott in Winnipeg, MB. He married Frances on August 30, 1947, who sadly passed away on June 10, 2003. Keith served in the Royal Canadian Navy from 1941 1945, and when he returned to Winnipeg he worked for the CNR and CPR Railways. After retirement he delivered newspapers and flyers around Woodhaven. He enjoyed going to the Assiniboia Downs since it opened in 1958, and Keith's summer home at Winnipeg Beach made him very happy; that is where he fished and boated. The Whiteshell and Caddy Lake were also a fun time for him. Frances and Keith travelled and explored distant parts of the world. He also enjoyed music and at the age of 85 he took vocal and piano lessons. In compliance with Keith's wishes, a private family service has already taken place. Many thanks to all the doctors, nurses and staff on the 3rd floor of the Grace Hospital for all their care and compassion. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Winnipeg Humane Society, 45 Hurst Way, Winnipeg, MB, R3T 0R3. Dad's cats Birdie, Smokey and Baby would appreciate this very much.
