Keith L. Huber, 67, of Gulfport, MS, formerly of Galva, died Thursday, May 29, 
2008, as the result of a tractor accident on his farm in rural LaFayette.    

Keith was born March 24, 1941 in rural LaFayette, IL, the son of Howard and 
Maxine (Peterson) Huber. Mr. Huber was preceded in death by his mother, Maxine 
Huber, and brother, Kenneth Huber. 


In 1982 he founded Keith Huber, Inc., of Gulfport, MS, now the largest 
independent manufacturer of Vacuum Loading equipment in the U.S. Keith has 
been a major part of the Gulf Coast since 1979 and has touched many lives. 
Keith Huber, Inc. has employed numerous people over the last 26 years. Keith 
remodeled and reopened the Sugar Mill Restaurant that many enjoyed. His love 
for property often showed when he was seen on his bulldozer and excavator 
clearing and shaping the land. At the ribbon-cutting ceremony for a major 
plant expansion in 1998, a close employee said, "The technology and products 
we produce as a company, the environmental harmony we achieve, the vision for 
the future we see, is empowered to us by a creative, understanding, relentless 
individual. I truly believe that this individual realizes his accomplishments 
when he witnesses the growth of someone else." This was Keith's greatest goal 
for others to recognize the potential within themselves. Keith's early 
accomplishments include designing the original Chaparral snowmobile, the 
Mallard Coach snowmobile and creating the first production model electronic 
controlled Golf Car. More recent passions include collecting and restoring 57-
59 Plymouths and restoring the family farm to era 1949-50. 

Memorial Service: at Three Rivers Rd., Gulfport, MS. Funeral services will be 
held at the Galva Chapel of Stackhouse-Moore Funeral Services. Burial will be 
in the Galva Cemetery.
