Winston Keith Weekley (Keith) Lt. Col. Army National Guard (ret.) of Atlanta, GA. Keith loved to tell a story, and lived enough in his eighty-seven years to make a million (although he typically liked to stick to 15-20 well-worn standards). Keith absolutely loved people, and helped thousands over more than half a century as a Chaplain in the National Guard, and as a Pastor at numerous churches, including Union Christian Church in Watkinsville GA. Keith loved nothing more than travelling around the world or around the neighborhood and chatting up whoever he met. His many travels took him all over: Mexico, Colombia, Canada, the Bahamas, England, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Switzerland, Greece, Thailand, Japan, Taiwan, China, Turkey, Peru, Germany, and Korea (and we probably missed a few). As an avid talker, Keith loved languages, and spoke fluent Spanish (with a delightful Southern accent), and Mandarin, and never missed an opportunity to practice with pen-pals and unsuspecting strangers. As a lifelong learner, Keith was pursuing a Doctorate in Theology as a way to improve his ministry.
