No Keel Memoriam ~ Yet
Posted by: Loren Coleman on July 11th, 2009
I have personally received this brief statement from John A. Keel’s youngest sister, Cheryl, on July 11, 2009, which I am sharing to answer questions many of you have had about any plans to celebrate his life:
I have made arrangements for the remains and I will not be holding a memoriam for John in New York City. The family will probably have a private memoriam at a later time. I suggest that you fellas go ahead and have any type of memoriam that you would like to have to remember your friend. Thank you for all your assistance and kind thoughts at this very difficult time.
See, “John A. Keel Has Died” for the July 6th obit.

Keel was unique. He will be missed. RIP.
I know the best memorial for this man: We buy his books for ourselves and others, we pick up the pieces where he left off, and once in awhile we visit him at his resting place and talk to his spirit as is only good and proper.
His memorial is curiosity, a willingness to look under every stone, to have the courage of our own instincts, and to possess the freedom to express them.
The best memorial is to read the books and be willing to look “outside of the box.” Coelacanth1938 had it right.
Also, be willing to have a sense of humor about it like John did.
