William Keith ATCHISON

William Keith Atchison October 17, 1926 October 21, 2009 It is with great sadness we announce Keith's passing after a long courageous battle. Keith will always be loved and remembered by Audrey, his loving wife of 60 years; his son, Glenn (Nellie) of Lethbridge, AB; his daughter, Beverley of Aldergrove, BC; his brother, Lorne (Jean) of Calgary; and he will be dearly missed by all of his grandchildren and great grandchildren. He was predeceased by his son Bill in 1996. Keith was born and raised and has always lived in Saskatoon. He served his country in the Royal Canadian Navy during World War II. Upon his return from service, he began to hone his exceptional mechanical skills into a life long career culminating in opening Keith & Herb Wheel Alignment Service. He and his partner operated this excellent business for a quarter of a century. Not able to sit still after retirement, Keith joined the Corps of Commissioners and especially enjoyed his years of service at Kelsey Institute, Saskatoon. Keith was passionate about life and fitness until his illnesses slowed him down in recent years. His love for all of his family and friends could never be questioned. The family wishes to thank the medical staff at St. Paul's and City Hospitals, especially the caring nurses on 6th floor at City Hospital. Flowers are respectfully declined. Donations may be made to the Saskatoon SPCA, 5028 Clarence Avenue South, Grasswood, SK S7T 1A7 or Telemiracle, 2217C Hanselman Court, Saskatoon, SK S7L 6A8.
