Condolences
I first met the Banks family when Bonnie hired me to work at Roke Oil. The financial atmosphere in the 80's was similar to what many are facing today and I was glad to have a placement. I entered the world of sensitive tools being lowered into casings deep into the earth. Equipped trucks and crews going into the oilfields and returning with important information for the eyes and interpretation of Keith Banks. The words accountable and responsible describe Keith and his passion towards continually upgrading and tweeking his equipment and providing his clients with the most accurate information to the best of his ability. We must remember that Bonnie, Chrystal and Stacey all greatly contributed to the name Roke Oil. Many companies will remember Stacey in the field; one of the on-site crew members. Chrystal typing and continually compiling new updated information. It was quite the task all those years ago and Keith was the proud papa of his binders. The family grew when Ross and John married the girls. The office at Moraine Rd. was a busy family affair. If Keith gave the orchestra (Engineers, crew members and employees) their Instruments and wrote the music, Bonnie was the director who held it all together and made it sound great. My time at Roke was short but I learned a lot and consider it a valuable life experience. Keith is one of a kind. Once you met him you would never forget him.
