Keith Hesli lived his entire life in Anoka, Minnesota meeting the love of his life in junior high school, Patricia. They were blessed to be married for 60 wonderful years. Keith was a proud family man, having 3 sons; Terry, Troy and Todd. As the boys grew up Keith introduced them to adventurous activities from snowmobiling to boating and of course a great love for the Minnesota Vikings. Rooms were filled with even more love as the Keith's family expanded to include 4 grandsons, 2 granddaughters, and 2 great granddaughters. Keith loved nothing more than spending time with his family at his lake home. Keith's path took him to Dunwoody to pursue a successful career in contracting, and eventually starting Sunrise Electric Inc. in 1973 located in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. Keith passed away suddenly on his 80th birthday after celebrating with his family.  We are comforted to know that he was welcomed to heaven on this special day. Keith was preceded in death by his parents Erwin & Emma, siblings Geraldine, Floyd and Elaine.
