OU and was a Phi Delta there. During his basketball career at OU, he was able to play basketball at Madison Square Garden. He was a veteran of the Navy.
Keith was an avid golfer. At age 12, he broke the golf course record at the
Bartlesville Country Club and that records stands today. He once played with Byron Nelson and Keith proceeded to birdie the first six holes. He also got to play golf with his favorite OU football coach, Bob Stoops.
When Gaile and Keith
married, he wanted her to learn to play golf. He taught her the game, and they enjoyed playing together.
He was a wonderful piano player and loved to dance. In the 1949 Junior League

Keith loved life and had many dear friends. He was a caring and generous man and loved the Lord.
Keith was a financial adviser and broker for Merrill Lynch. He was very active in the Amarillo Symphony for many years and sang in the Symphony Choir. He attended Westminster Presbyterian Church and enjoyed Avery Rush's Sunday school class, never wanting to miss a lesson.
He was preceded in death by his first wife, Louise Fowler; a daughter, Jane Fowler; and a son, Gene Fowler.
Survivors include his wife, Gaile Fowler; two stepsons, Jim Farrell and wife Julie of Odessa and Michael Farrell and wife Jan of Houston; six grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
The family suggests
memorials be to Presbyterian Childrens' Home, 3400 S. Bowie St., Amarillo, TX 79109; or a charity of choice.
