My Dear Aunt Bertie,
I share your grief and loss. He was my favorite and only uncle. My heart is so heavy! I love you, Dori and Michael. Please know that I am here for all of you. I will miss him immensely.
All my love,
Your niece, Davette

Paying tribute to an amazing man and mentor to soooo many of the youth in the Tarrytowns. John Keels always made you comfortable and supported in all you did. His life is a legacy of positivity fulfilled. (((((Hugs)))))) to all who were blessed with the memory of this amazing man!

On behalf of the Hillside High School Class of 1957, I would like to express our condolence to Bertie and the family of "Big John" as he is fondly remembered by our class. We always looked forward to seeing John and Bertie at our class reunions. We will cherish the memories and offer any support that we can.
