LJ and Keith met in 2004 and have been dedicated to each other ever since. Keith encourages LJ to challenge himself with new activities, especially outdoor activities like kayaking, hiking, fishing and playing catch. When their workout is done they enjoy Subway sandwiches. When LJ and his mother had to move to the Tri-Cities for several months Keith made arrangements to continue seeing LJ even if it meant driving to the Tri-Cities, one hour each way. When LJ’s family moved back to Walla Walla Keith helped them get settled in their new apartment. Most of all Keith has remained a consistent and dependable role model for LJ. Through it all LJ has always done well in school. Knowing that Keith is there to support him has helped tremendously.
