The following excerpt is from “The Story of J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc.”
Ethel D. Keller was my first associate and my lifetime partner through ten years of marriage at the time of J. J. Keller's founding, plus fifty years beyond with the company's 50th anniversary in 2003.
Ethel served as a member of the Board of Directors and an executive officer of the company. In the 1970s, she established our present Research & Technical Library which is a leading technical library within its field of activity — truly an accomplishment.
Throughout our sixty-year marriage, Ethel provided great personal support. For example, during our formative years, Ethel and I dedicated all of our personal assets to support the company. With my extensive travel activities at the time, Ethel handled the family business entirely.
Therefore, there is no greater tribute we can grant than dedication of this corporate chronicle to her credit.
