Keith Klimzak

Keith William Klimzak, 67, of Englewood, Florida, passed away unexpectedly on August 12th, 2024 in Holland, Michigan.

Keith was born August 4th, 1957 in Chicago, Illinois to William and Carol Klimzak. The Family later moved to Saugatuck, Michigan where Keith graduated from Saugatuck High in 1975. Keith enlisted in the United States Navy where he served our country for 4 years. After the Navy, Keith returned to Saugatuck where he worked for Browered Marine until he and his good friend Scott Miser started work installing electrical systems on boats. The two decided to take their skills to Florida where they continued their business until 1983 when Keith started at Heidelberg. Keith worked with another good friend, Luis “Lulu” Perez for over 40 years.

When Keith wasn’t working you could find him with his daughters and granddaughters, on his boat cruising to Stump Pass, playing the guitar or fixing and tinkering with just about anything. Keith was never burdened by helping people, he saw everyone as a friend. He had a sense of humor that was unmatched, a laugh that was infectious and ‘Keith-isms’ that would make you laugh until your stomach hurt. “God Love Ya!’

Keith is survived by his four daughters, Chelsea Klimzak, Maxshell(Ryan) Hamilton, Coral(Tony) Roberts, Madison Klimzak. Granddaughters, Makenzie “Keke”, Ryla, Sade and one more unborn baby on the way.

Siblings Cathy(Dave) Bekken, Cyndi Nyland, Michelle and Robert Moton. Step siblings, Bob Beckman Jr, Denise Curtis and Jody(Ralph) Troutman along with several nieces and nephews.
