Alexander Keith's Story
I was a swimmer and in my junior year the team won CIF Championship C division. It was a great goal and that same weekend I had my first drink of booze and by the time I graduated I was kicked off the swimming team and had become one of the school drunks. I went from the top to the bottom in a short time. I had been honorary mayor (for the day) of Newport Beach that year and by November 1960 I was in jail for drunk driving. I had a extreme experience that night and this November 25, 2010 will 50 years since my last drink. This saved my life and gave me a life beyond belief. I thank my God and a fellowship for my recovery.
I have been married 3 times for a total of over 40 years of marriage (1...Expand for more
2 years this time). My current wife told me she is my last wife and I think the third is a charm. I am a very lucky man to have survived 4 heart attacks and I am still going strong. My two sons are very successful and I now have 5 grandchildren: 4 girls and 1 boy. I live in a great area in Atascadero, CA.
I have my own newspaper distribution service and love to do watercolor and pen & ink drawings of landscapes. I still work with people with drinking problems as best I can and it helps me stay sober. Coach Ed Newland was a great influence on me because he showed me tough love an fired me from the swim team which got me to my bottom sooner. Thanks, Coach. It would be great to see him again.
