    We at the Carolina Rebels regretfully announce the passing of our long time coach Keith Stowe. Keith lost his battle with cancer this morning at Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte, N.C. Please join with us in this time of sorrow and keep his wife Carole, his daughter Rachel, and the rest of their family in our thoughts and prayers.

    "YOU WERE NOT ONLY OUR COACH, BUT OUR STRENGTH", "YOU WILL BE MISSED."

    Visitation for Keith Stowe will be Wednesday, July 19th at First Presbyterian Church in Belmont, N.C. from 7 p.m. until 9 p.m.
    Funeral services to be held at First Presbyterian Church, Thursday, July 20th at 11 a.m.

    Keith Stowe

    I've been playing against Keith and his teams from the very start. I absolutely love his daughter Rachael to no end. Keith, you accomplished many good things in your short life, but what you've done with your daughter will be your legacy!! Playing against you was a challange, an honor and I'm very proud to have known you personally in these past four years as we competed against each other in highschool. I didnt know about your ordeal until this very weekend. I'm sorry I didnt get to talk to you before your passing, so this will have to do. Rachael, I know you visit tbr, pm me and i would like to talk to you when things calm down. If there is anything I can do, please call me.

    Ed, Carrie & Morgan Meyer

    From the KM Lightning

    From the KM Lightning, we truly respect all that Keith stood for. So many great battles we fought against each other. The Lightning family would like to extend our deepest sympathies to the family. Even though the team is no longer together, we share so many great memories of so many games against the then Gaston Thunder.

    I only got to know him last season and found him a standup guy.I enjoyed several ball conversations with him early this season. He will surely be missed.
    So sorry for your loss.
