Keith "Pops" Winch, 70, of Port Orange, Florida, passed while being surrounded by his family on March 5, 2017. He was born July 7, 1946, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to the late Keith Winch, Sr. and Dorothy (Fischer). For over twenty years, Keith owned the Dairy Bar, "Home of the Best Chili Dog in Town".  Whether Keith was fishing in the Keys, playing golf at the local par-3 course or cheering for his favorite football team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, he shared these times with family and cherished every minute.  Keith is survived by his loving wife, Judi, of 46 years; son, Scott (Valerie); son, Craig; daughter, Cori Barnes (Kurt); daughter, Laci Verduzco (David); brother, Jim (Renee); brother, Kevin; grandchildren, Tyler, Kingsley, Huxley, and Mason, and many other relatives and friends. Keith was an amazing father, husband, grandfather, and friend and will be forever remembered.  During his life, Keith carried this poem, and on behalf of his beloved family, we can be assured that Pops will definitely be a trophy catch!

I pray that I may

live to fish

until my dying day.

And when it comes

to my last cast,

I then most humbly pray.

When in the Lord's

great landing net

and peacefully asleep

That in his mercy

I be judged

Big enough to Keep.

A Celebration of Life service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 11, 2017, at the First United Methodist Church of Port Orange.  In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in memory of Keith to Food Brings Hope; www.FoodBringsHope.org or to First United Methodist Church/Youth Ministries.
