Perhaps most memorable are tributes from Keith's son Stelen and daughter Krystal.
"I will forever honor him," Krystal writes in a social media post. "The pain is so unbelievably deep and it feels like I have a literal broken heart but I know that it wouldn’t hurt so bad if we didn’t love him and get to be loved so deeply by him."
The singer also leaves behind daughter Shelley and wife Tricia, plus extended family. A public memorial is expected to be announced soon.
