A memorial
service was held this past Sunday (May 11)
in Herald, California for horseman Paul
Keays, who passed away earlier this month at
age 59 after a year and a half-long battle
with cancer.
The Canadian native is survived by his wife
of 25 years, Jo; his mother Loretta, who is
90; four sisters and one brother.
Paul had many top performers over the years,
with three of the best being the pacer Van
Rhet and the stakes-winning trotters Oso
Speedy and So Fast. For the past dozen
years, he has concentrated on horseshoeing
while also training a small group of
trotters.
