Photo: Keith Wren | From Denver’s Rock Bands of the 80’s – Gene Over: Sad news. Keith Wren, a fixture on the Denver scene in the 80s with Kyte, and in later years in a duo with Peter Fletcher, and then on his own, died this morning. Great guy, great musician.
Norm Peterson: Keith messaged me last week thinking this Group could help him. It was about a Go Fund Me page he had set up to help with medical bills, I believe. I feel terrible I didn’t call him back right away. I had no idea he was sick and in need of help. Now he’s gone just like that.. RIP Keith.. You are well loved..
Autumn Amo is organizing this fundraiser.
I would like to regretfully announce the passing of my dad Keith Wren who passed away suddenly . . . at the age of 66. There will be a Celebration of Life in his honor sometime after the holidays to commemorate the wonderful life of our beloved Dad, Grandfather, Brother and Dear Friend. We’d love to hear about any memories you shared with him. Feel free to send or share any photos or videos
Please help to join me on helping raise funds:
