It is a profound and heartbreaking moment for the community of Campbellsport, Wisconsin, as we mourn the passing of Keith A. Paswaters, who left this world on September 3, 2025. His departure came far too soon, following a sudden and devastating brain hemorrhage that struck just two days earlier on Labor Day morning.
Keith was more than a son, father, and partnerโhe was a man whose laughter filled rooms, whose hands were always ready to work, and whose heart belonged entirely to his children and loved ones. His passing has left an irreplaceable void, but his memory will live on through the countless lives he touched.
A Man of Family and Heart
At the center of Keithโs world were his four children, who he loved with an immeasurable devotion. Every decision he made, every job he took, and every sacrifice he endured was rooted in his desire to give them a better life. Those close to him say that his proudest role was being a fatherโguiding, protecting, and cheering on his children at every turn.
His partner, Aimee Baker, was also his rock and constant companion. In the face of tragedy, she showed extraordinary courage and love, standing by Keithโs side until his final breath. Their bond was one of love, resilience, and shared dreams, a testament to the life they built together.
A Life of Hard Work and Dedication
Keith was no stranger to hard work. He built his career with his hands and his determination, proving himself in several trades over the years. He worked at Countywide Extinguisher and Hood Cleaning, took pride in his time as a Welder-Fabricator at HD RAMPS, and previously contributed his skills as a Flooring Installer at Precision Surfaces.
No matter the task, Keith approached it with grit and pride. He was the kind of man who showed up when it mattered, who put in the long hours without complaint, and who always made sure those around him knew they could count on him.
Rooted in Campbellsport
Born and raised in Campbellsport, Keith carried his hometown spirit wherever life took him. He attended Campbellsport High School and later studied at Fort Dorchester High School, but his heart always remained in Wisconsin. He embodied the values of small-town life: loyalty, community, and the simple joys of gathering with friends and family.
To those who knew him, Keith was more than a neighbor or classmateโhe was a friend who could be counted on for a helping hand or a good laugh. He lived with a warmth that left an impression on everyone he met.
Remembering His Spirit
What stood out most about Keith was not only what he did, but who he was. He was a man of humor, quick with a joke to lighten the mood. He was a man of loyalty, standing by those he loved through thick and thin. And he was a man of heart, whose kindness and compassion were felt deeply by his family, his friends, and his community.
His smile was the kind that made others smile too. His laughter was contagious. His presence was steadying. And though his life ended far too soon, his spirit will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of those who loved him.
A Community in Mourning
Keithโs passing has left his family and community in mourning, yet it has also brought people together in love and remembrance. Friends have filled social media with tributes, prayer circles have been held, and loved ones are finding comfort in shared stories of his life.
The family has expressed their gratitude for the overwhelming support and prayers during his final days. They also hope to establish a donation fund to help with the expenses of his medical care and to provide ongoing support for his children as they navigate life without their father.
His Lasting Legacy
Though Keithโs earthly journey ended too soon, his story does not end here. His legacy lives on in the values he instilled in his children, in the friendships he built, and in the countless acts of love and generosity he shared throughout his life.
Every memory of Keith is a reminder of the joy he brought to others, the love he gave so freely, and the resilience he carried through lifeโs challenges. His family asks that he be remembered not in sorrow alone, but in the laughter he shared, the love he spread, and the strength he showed.
Forever in Our Hearts
As we say goodbye to Keith A. Paswaters, we do so with broken hearts but also with gratitude for the gift of his life. Though he is no longer with us in body, his spirit will live onโin his children, in the stories his friends tell, and in the love his family carries forward.
May his soul find peace, and may his family and community find comfort in knowing that Keith will never truly be gone. His memory will remain a guiding light, forever etched in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
Rest in peace, Keith. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.
