I've done funerals for some good life, bad life,

what kind of things do you see from your areas - regarding emotions?

Everyone handles things in their own way.

some people want you to leave them alone, some want you to hold their hand, some want you to talk to them

after they were married how did the family progress? we took trips together, becky and my wife were like sisters, we spent time together, there were periods of times when we were away that we didn't have those close moments

did you know someone else had become involved in the relationship? yes becky told us

did keith know about it ? yes

what was keith's take on all of that ? he loved her would always love her would do anything to keep the relationship -whatever it took he said he would do it - we had conversation after conversation about it 

did you talk to becky about it? somewhat she knew i wouldn't approve and didn't tell me everything - because of my belief standards she didn't relay a lot of the things

during the separation - do you feel like they grew apart? he thought they had. and she thought he was leaving her out of the decision makings. she was very hurt about the decision of the job

after separation did keith want to get them back together? we had lots of conversations about it - he asked what he could do to get her back- we would just talk like any friends would talk but there was also a pastoral talk 

in doing counseling- is it uncommon to see people who grow apart or fall out of love? no 

if they have fallen out of love

in her conversations about keith- did she still love him? yes

what makes you think that ? she said it - but she said she didn't know if she could stay with him because of him leaving her out. He kept to himself about a lot of his decision 

"he always said that becky is the person who brought him to the place he wanted to be in his life"

you knew she filed for divorce at some point ? yes 

at some point they reconciled? yes

after that did you still socialize with them?yes

tell us what you saw? i saw 2 people working on a relationship and both indicated they loved each other

keith constantly said how much he loved her and becky would say i want this to work.

i asked her point blank - do you still love him? and she said yes i still love him,

anytime between that up to this point did she ever wish any ill will on him? no 

did she ever look like she wished ill will on him? no she was always someone to help others - even care for sickly dogs 

talking about taking care of people- were are your parents today? in assisted living, she was their basic caregiver until she no longer could

what do you mean caregiver? she took mom to doctor and did things to the point i could never do- she just took care of just about everything 

is that something she felt like she had to do or wanted ? i could have done it - but she said she could do it and that i needed to be doing other things

she took care of aunt - what was her name  - louise

it is rebecca louise - was becky named after her ? yes

did they have a strong relationship? yes she trusted becky unlike any other

it was her desire that when she could no longer take of herself that becky take care of things.

is she still alive? no 

did you spend time with becky & keith in august - september? we still spent time together somewhat - keith came by and we chatted a number of times in august. we played golf together.

did keith tell you anything going on or anything about the marriage? no, they came over one night and i asked him if everything was going good and he said yeah, right now everything is going great.

when was that  ? 2-3 weeks before the incident

you had any conversations with becky? well that night

no lets not go to that night yet- before then?

no, but it looked and appeared everything was fine

was keith still coming by? he was 2 weeks before

did you have any discussion with keith around sept 19th or sept 20th? he called and left a message saying kent needed a trailer.

did you call keith back and have a discussion with him? i called kent to tell em that i would bring trailer to their house

keith didn't make it sound like it was imperative 

did that cause issue? well yes, becky called and i didn't think it was that big of a problem for it to be a day or so... so i told her i would go get it... that conversation ended up talking about my mothers wedding set that had been given to my wife.

it became a very serious conversation

why was that? becky was feeling that i had been favored and that my wife had been favored. that mom would give my wife something over her.

I was being cavalier and she was being serious

did you then offer becky anything? i told her you can have the ring and the trailer.  we love each other and this is just stuff. she said its valuable - i said you can have it 

was it valuable? it was appraised for $ 9,000

do you know the value in sept? approximately $20, 000

did you part on good terms? i said yes. you can have it and my wife said let her have it - we never knew it was a problem

but did you make up? we we never had a relationship like that we did not fight. so i turned around and called keith that i would bring the trailer out to the house.

i texted her and said i love you, sorry --  and she said i love you

i took the trailer out to their house. 

was that the last conversation you had with keith? yes 

when was the next ? my son called around 1045 saying keith had been shot.

i talked to becky right after i talked to my son

what did becky tell you? she said that a guy came in and shot him and then she gave me the information i'm sorry ma'am he should have given me the job

how was she acting? upset, horribly upset. 

i heard people in the background and i said, hey we are leaving Branson we will be there soon.

you say horribly upset what do you mean? her voice was elevated, her tone, she was not screaming but had a lot of emotion . i thought she was crying on the phone but i couldn't see her.

did she describe the actual physical things that happened to keith? yes

so you and your wife go to medical center? yes

what time did you get there? approx. 4 am

did you see becky? not immediately

do you know where becky was when you got to the hospital? i was told she was in an interview room

where did you first see her? at that waiting room right inside the entrance 

what did you do when you first saw her ? hugged her and said we will get through this

how was she at that point in time? she was in shock she was um not sure what to do not sure how to handle anything that was going on around her. she was being her normal self trying to figure out how to get control over the situation 

did you have any more discussion with her about the media? she said i want the media to know what kind of guy keith was and i need to talk to them and i said becky no.

-she was being becky- becky was a person that would do things you don't want her to do so she could take control of the situation.

my mom was somewhat controlling and you lived by moms rules and all three of us wanted to make our choices. i would talk to my dad... and  becky and tim would try to shock my mom. like one time mom tried to tell becky what she would wear and becky said fine i will just go naked.

was that common - would she say things that were shocking to control? yes

so it did not just manifest that night? no, always- it was just the way we were raised

people in here have said she would say shocking things? its a way she changes a tone or changing a situation she was in. my brother would do the same thing

did you have any other conversations with becky that morning? there was a lot of i love you and she was wanting to do things i didn't want her to do.

she would want to talk to this person or that - she had no sense of direction to me... she was just absolutely in shock

outside on the bench did she say ?she said i'm probably gong to smoke two packs of cigarettes and she knew how i felt about the cigarettes - most times she wouldn't say anything

did she make any statements about where her life was at that point in time?  well she said she didn't know what she was going to do.

she said i just hope from this - she said i just hope something good will come out of this i don't know how i just hope something will come out of this- she mentioned ted wilson getting a liver  from the organ donation.

elaborate on "i don't know what i'm going to do?" she just said she didn't know what she was going to do without him - she was crying and she teared up pretty good and she said i hope i'm not a burden to you.

you said becky wanted to tell about how good keith was - she said she wanted to tell the media and get the word out and so ted could get the liver.

I said don't worry about that i know someone we can call.

you knew a guy called stan? i will call stan miller?yes, we play golf together- he is an ordained minister, i called him and asked him how we need to handle this.

did he come and talk to you? yes 

and did he talk to becky? yes for about 30 mins 

did he want to do an interview with her? no 

who's advice was it not to do an interview? his

i had agreed to talk to the media because the two sons said it would be better if one person handled it

i think it was pretty obvious there was a lot of media attention? yes 

when was the next time you were called? the pastor Jim McNabb called and said he wanted to talk about funeral so we were going to meet at hilton garden inn

was becky staying there? yes and my brother, tim 

how was becky then?still shock - even in front of pastor jim

when he left the room she said can you believe i just lit a cigarette in front of pastor mcnabb 

how was she acting- she was being becky-still in shock still in that mode we saw her in that tuesday morning

did you know becky owned a gun? yes keith came by and told me he was going to get a gun at h&h and becky was real pleased she completed the conceal carry course she felt she needed protection because a realtor out east was getting threatening calls so she knew someone was out there.

you contacted stan miller -you wanted a contact person to go through -who's idea? mine

why did you want to contact stan miller? i thought he would not embellish or take things out of context and needed his advice.

it was so you or your sister could talk with him in an interview?

i needed someone - with not dealing with the media-  to give me some advice

you told the jury it was the reporters decision not to interview with the wife of a murdered fire chief that was getting national attention? yes, he said

i'm not going to interview your sister right now and no news media needs to talk  to your sister right now.

wasn't it your sister's idea originally to talk with someone in the media - and then you said lets contact stan miller? correct 

cause she wanted to get her version out? no, cause she wanted to make sure ted could get the liver and didn't want their to be problems.

before keith was even dead? no after he was dead

when did you contact stan miller ? around 6

keith was pronounced dead at 6- and you thought it was a good idea to contact the media? it was becky's idea

when miller testified the other day he said your sister seemed distraught but only because of the organs-  is that how you remember your sister was distraught?

 i said she wanted to contact the media so ted could get the organs

you said you didn't hear what becky said to stan - so you don't know if she even mentioned the organ donation to stan? i dont know 

you said about 2 or 3 weeks before keith was shot and killed you asked him if everything was good and he said yes? why ask unless you suspect something was wrong?  we were friends we played golf and i wanted to see how things were going

so not specifically about the marriage? no i asked specifically cause i  thought of it often.

you also said after reconciliation you asked specifically do you still love him --why would you suspect she would not?  because a lot of times people get back together for convenience or for the kids. 

but the kids are out of the home? yes

have you had family members die? yes

have you ever heard her say something shocking when they die ? yes one time : when my aunt passed - her son has been a very difficult person for years and becky would always try to help him and when my aunt passed away we did not know what he should get and becky said  "no one has any other rights and your son might not be any  better than he was" and she would do things in opposition.

did she say anything disparaging ? not that i recall

would she laugh about it? not that i remember

you told the jury that your sister makes shocking comments to be in control? yes

the way becky handles things is to say shocking things

the shocking comment you testified to ?

at this hotel - she said  one of the things she did was that she started to smoke? yes i thought it was becky being becky

you said she even said i just lit a cigarette in front of pastor mcnabb? yes

were you with her at hotel? yes

do you know she was contacting mark holbrook? no 

did you know she was telling him just days after keith had been shot and killed that she still loved him?no
