Keith Charles Kimble Beebe – December 11, 1993-December 22, 2022
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Keith. Keith is survived by his son Christopher Keith Beebe. his parents Robert Beebe and Monica Eagle Plume, his sisters Kimberly, Robyn, and Kiera. His paternal grandparents Woody and Clarice Beebe, his maternal grandparents Joe Knife and Margaret Eagle Plume.
Keith grew up in an extended family where many teachings and values were instilled in him from an early age. Since Keith was Woody and Clarice’s first grandchild, they took great interest in his upbringing ensuring that he had opportunities to excel in sports and succeed in his schooling.
Keith’s great grandmother Mabel Beebe was also instrumental in his upbringing. Through her care for Keith, she taught him how to pray in his young years, He was well remembered for always having rosaries and a scapular beside his bedside well into his adult years. His parents specifically remember one time Keith got off the bus crying and when asked what happened, Keith said that his friend had nothing to eat for 2 days. After that time Keith would ensure that he made an extra lunch each day for his friend. Keith has a close relationship with the Knife and Eagle Plume side, and he had a special relationship with Grandpa Joe Knife who was his driving instructor.
Keith was very caring and protective of his family and friends going out of his way to ensure that he was their protector. When his son Christopher was born, Keith took great care in helping to care for his son. He would often be found sterilizing bottles and mixing the baby formula, feeding, and changing Christopher. He could sit and play with his son for hours. He was one proud dad who loved his son dearly.
Keith took his first steps when he was 9 months old, and he put on first set of skates at the age of 4 years with the help of his uncle Myron Beebe who taught him how to skate. This led him to a lifelong love for the game of hockey. Keith was notorious for his big hits against his opponents even when it was disallowed in minor hockey. Keith was involved in playing minor hockey from a tiny mite to the midget division with Cardston, Ft. Macleod, and Kainai. He excelled in this sport as he had great tenacity, talent, and skill in the game of hockey.
Keith was an avid golfer; on the golf course he excelled in his game. He won and placed in numerous golf tournaments. A memorable win for Keith was the Kainai Indian Days Junior Golf Tournament. Prior to the tournament, Keith broke his driver, but this did not stop him he won first place! He was known for his long drive and won many long drives. Keith won numerous singles and scramble tournaments.
Keith’s schooling took place in Cardston schools and Fort Macleod. Keith graduated from FP Walshe High School in Fort Macleod in 2013.
After high school Keith worked at refining his employment skills by enrolling in various training programs where he was prepped for employment. One of his major accomplishments was working on the construction of the Levern Clinic from start to finish with Seko Construction. Keith stood out in this area as he was a hard worker, and no job was too big to take on. His hard work ethic took him as far as the Northwest Territories to work on a construction project. He returned home full of stories to share with his family about the north country.
At the time of his passing, Keith was enrolled in Red Crow Community College Agricultural Studies program. He took his studies very seriously as he took great pride in the work that he did in the program. He would always ask for pointers from his grandmother Clarice when he was working on assignments and presentations. One day this past November Clarice visited the agriculture classroom to find that she stepped into Keith’s presentation to his class on sheep production. He gave an excellent presentation, one that he worked hard on as it drew great interest from his classmates and instructor. This demonstrated his commitment and hard work. He always ensured that he did his best to meet the requirements of his course work.
