Keith was cutting my hair from my early childhood to my late teens. I can still remember as if it was yesterday my dad marching all five off his boys down to Parco's ( as he was affectionally known in our house ) for the traditional short, back and sides that was probably Keith most popular cut at that time.
Great bloke and sad loss to Hindpool community, and the gents barbers trade.
My condolences to Viv & family.
