October 3, 2017 at the age of 49 years. Beloved son of Janet & the late Ronald Stefanec. Devoted best friend of Cindy Menzel. Further survived by his cousins Chuck Vodicka, Rick (Beth) Vodicka, other cousins and many friends.
Visitation at the funeral home on Monday, October 9th from 4-8 PM with a Prayer Service at 5:30 PM. Entombment Resurrection Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorials in Keith’s name to Guitars4Vets.org appreciated. Keith was a founding member of the Lukyn Skywyrd Band.
Keith graduated from MSOE with degree in Electrical Engineering Technology. After college, he worked in his parent’s pre-press shop. Upon his parents retirement, he started his own business, Skywyrd Communications, specializing in audio, visual, and home/business network technologies. But his true passion in life was his music. He started Lukyn Skywyrd in 1991. The band has played some phenomenal gigs over the years, opening for Molly Hatchet, Bad Company, and Marshall Tucker Band a few times. They’ve played Summerfest, State Fair, County Fairs, and every year in Tomahawk.
He adored the love of his life, Cindy Menzel. Their life together was adventure, from the camping trips to Washington Island, to the Simple Man and Rock Legends cruises, long road trips to see Preacher Stone, Blackberry Smoke, and numerous other bands in various music venues throughout the country.
Keith was always full of life, always willing to lend a helping hand, always there for anything you needed, always playing guitar, singing, writing songs, and pouring everything into Lukyn Skywyrd, always up for a shot or two or five of Jack, always there for his mom, always there for Cindy, always there for his cousins....you were taken from us far, far too early......hopefully your pops greeted you with a shot or two or five of Jack.......you will never, ever be forgotten, fly on free bird.....
