On November 16, 1982 you made your grand entrance into this world, blessing our family forever, and bringing immeasurable joy to everyone who knew you. You thrived in the beautiful ways all parents hope for. First steps, first words, first love, marriage. Any time you walked into a room, you lit it up. Your smile was contagious and your eyes always seemed to sparkle. You made everyone feel at home with the ease of your laughter, like a friend you've always known. Your generosity of spirit was unequaled by any other on this plane. You never said no to anyone's request for help. When your heart is that big and that open, sometimes sadness gets in, too. Sadly, you could no longer endure the pain and on August 30, 2011 you took control of your destiny. You have joined your brother Steven Bert Kandarian, grandparents Al & Sue Pohan and Robert Tarvin, and Uncle Jeff Pohan in Heaven. Smile sweet love because all is peaceful for you now. You are survived by your loving wife, Jennifer Bergstrom Tarvin, parents, Denise Pohan Tarvin and Phil Tarvin, mother-in-law, Michelle Alvarez, sister-in-law, Jordan Alvare, grandmother, Geraldine Tarvin, aunts Cathy Pohan, Randa Key, Gail Pohan-Hansard, uncle John Tarvin, great aunts and uncles, Pepper Ametjian, Margaret Ohanesian, Duane & Virginia Long, Tim & Shelly Long cousins Jason Tarvin and Joey Tarvin, all your extended cousins, their families and a huge circle of friends. Your body may be gone but your spirit will always live in our hearts. We rest in the glory that you will never again be in pain. Sadness and darkness are gone forever. We love you Keith and look forward to being together again one day.
