Keith Allen Stoeber, beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend, suddenly passed from this life to the next on June 29, 2025. He was forty-one years old.

In life, Keith Stoeber had a heart of gold. He was always willing to lend a helping hand to family and friends. He will be missed immensely.

Keith Allen Stoeber was born on September 1, 1983, at Rose Hospital in Denver, Colorado, to Carol (Shephard) and Gary Stoeber. He was the first of three children in the Stoeber family, joined by his siblings Kristal (Stoeber) Reid and Brandon Stoeber in subsequent years.

Keith is remembered by his parents, Carol and Gary Stoeber; his sister, Kristal Reid; his brother, Brandon Stoeber; his cherished nieces, Ashley Reid and Avery Salankey; and his nephew, Jordan Salankey. He was close to his family, including his grandparents, Wilma Bates and Joan and Mike Stoeber; aunts and uncles; Paula and Bob Berry, Michael Jr. and Jennifer Stoeber, Cyndy McDonald, and Laura Brown; cousins Kathryn Harer, Rachel and Russell McDonald, Nicola Wissler, Lyndy Barnard, Craig and Jamie Berry, Brooke, Emily and Ryan Stoeber, and their families. Additionally, Keith has a large extended family who will miss his presence.

A proud descendant of pioneers in Golden and Alamosa, Colorado, Keith had a deep affection for country living. He led a simple life filled with love, faith, and a strong sense of community. Keith was an ardent animal lover, particularly devoted to his Boxer dog, Duke, whom he regarded as his child. The loss of Duke some years ago left a profound impact on him.

Keith graduated from Golden High School in 2002 and pursued further education at Parks College, where he earned a degree in Law Enforcement. However, the emotional toll of witnessing families in distress led him to shift gears and follow in his father's footsteps as a professional driver. His prowess as a professional driver was recognized by his employers.

As a big brother, Keith exemplified protectiveness and love for his siblings. He enjoyed the outdoors, frequently fishing, riding his motorcycle, and exploring the mountains on four-wheelers. An enthusiastic sport shooter, he was also deeply patriotic, always expressing his love for his country.

We find comfort in knowing he is now in a better place, embraced by God’s eternal love. In God's grace, we find strength, and we will forever carry his love in our hearts. In memory of Keith Allen Stoeber, the family invites those who wish to honor him to donate to the National Jewish Health foundation.
