So sorry to hear of Keith‘s passing, he was a wonderful guy, and a good friend, I knew him through our joint passion for collecting Oliver cockshutt, White and Minneapolis, Moline, tractors and equipment, as well as their common interest in trucks and farming, he always told me he was going to retire from farming when he was 70, I’m so sad that he didn’t get the chance and us to spend time on the hobbies that he really loved, my sincerest condolences, Rick Tam

Our condolences to Donna and all the family
I am super glad to have worked for and with Keith over the years. Lots of good strong advice and many laughs. I have had the pleasure of planting his corn and some spraying over the last few years. Loved it. I have watched Keith pick more rocks than anyone I know! Great job Kieth, well done.

To Donna and Family ,
Our Condolences to you on the passing of Keith, may all your great memories of him, help you to move forward in the coming days.
We are sure gonna miss you Keith Finnie, you fit in like a glove around here ,from poking fun at whoever was the victim of the day , to your many stories in the scale house. (even if we had heard them once or twice!!). We had lots of laughs and great conversation,. The Story our guys probably enjoyed the most was the time Keith was leveling an over filled truck, An impatient car started honking and then yelled at Keith thur the sunroof. Keith replied by dumping his shovel of corn in that fellas sunroof. Dont't know how he got away with that one. Not sure how we are gonna get thur a harvest without Keith Finnie... they say everyone is replaceable. You were one of a kind Keith, walked to the beat of your own drum. Yes we can replace the trucker but you can't replace the man . Rest in Peace our friend .

Sending my sincerest sympathy to Donna and family. I’ve had many conversations with Keith over the years. He had a love for the land he farmed , was very passionate about his community and was never afraid to tell you his opinion of how the government treated the farmers! He definitely passed while doing what he loved. Try to remember the good times in the days ahead. Thinking of you

Keith was a part of my life since I was a child. He was always around, and willing to help. I have fond memories from a couple weeks ago when he asked dad and I to help out getting the bubble up auger out of the combine so he could replace it. I never considered that would be the last time we would talk. I shared waves as we passed each other on the road. I so enjoyed his stories of trucking to various places, and I always looked forward to when he would call and ask dad and I to come help calibrate his drill. I knew I was in for an afternoon of great stories!

I met Keith when I was just a young child. Lisa (#2) and I would torment him, stealing his underwear and sending them from the upstairs vent through the kitchen cupboard when we know he would see and send us running! We always pestered him and asked him where he was going. Back than we called him Douhead, now I am not sure if it had anything to do with that Iconic flow of long hair. We always sassed him about if he had a girlfriend.
I remember fondly how smitten he was to have met Donna.
He had an amazing love of farming and was admired each spring as he pulled his cultivator with "Brutus".
He farmed his way, with a genuine patience and a knowledge for the land that he loved to share.
He loved to drive his truck and did so up till his last day. He also loved to get a good chuckle out of everyone, and he did that for a time with is road side mannequins.
Keith, like his father loved to chat and share stories. We loved to listen.
So thankful to have grown up beside Keith as a farming mentor and family friend. He will be greatly missed.
Sending out sincere condolences to Donna, his family, friends, community and of course his cats.
Lisa & Kelly Linton and Family.

Sooo sorry to hear this news! Keith was such a terrific guy! I remember him through the years coming into the elevator at Harmony that my husband and I managed! He loved to come in and chat with us and reminisce about people we knew and life in general! Treasure your memories because they will always be very important! Take care and know that you you are in my thoughts as you deal with Keith’s passing!
