Keith Ray Arnold, age 71, of Denver, Colorado, passed away September 16, 2026.

Keith was born April 13, 1955, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Harold Ramble Arnold and Grace Louise (Kauffman) Arnold. He grew up in East McKeesport, Pennsylvania, as the youngest of five siblings, alongside his identical twin brother. The son of a school superintendent, Keith graduated in 1973 from East Allegheny High School, where he participated in band and swim team. He went on to earn a bachelor's degree in accounting from Penn State in 1977.

Keith married Gwen Marie LaCoe on October 8, 1983, in Haddonfield, New Jersey. Together, they built a life and raised two children, Kathryn Grace Dicken and Gregory Ash Arnold.

Keith later permanently settled his family in Denver, Colorado. In 1996, he founded and co-owned Image Projections West (IPW), a toner cartridge remanufacturing business. He took pride in U.S. manufacturing and employing hard-working families in the Denver community.

During his youth, Keith developed a love of fishing, hunting, and camping with his buddies. He was known for getting into trouble playing pranks on people with his twin. Everyone who knew Keith knew how much he enjoyed the outdoors, golfing, skiing, working in the yard, wine, travel, and his favorite team, the Denver Broncos.

He supported and served as Board President of the Bridge Project. The mission of the Bridge Project was to help children and youth living in Denver's public housing neighborhoods achieve their academic potential and graduate from high school.

Keith is survived by his wife, Gwen; a daughter, Kathryn (Rob) Dicken; a son, Gregory (Hillary) Arnold; his first grandchild due in December; a sister, Charlotte (Raymond) Sheets; his brothers, Doug (Janet) Arnold, John (Janet) Arnold, and Ken (Marjorie) Arnold; many nieces and nephews; and his dog, Holly. He was preceded in death by his parents.

A private Celebration of Life service will be held on October 12, 2026. A memorial website can be viewed at https://everloved.com/life-of/keith-arnold-denver-co/
