Local Palm Springs California philanthropist and restaurateur Barbara Keller, well known for her passion to help others, died early April 15th of cancer. She was 75.
Over the more than 30 years Barbara and Jerry Keller have called the Coachella Valley home, they built popular and award-winning restaurants and were well known for their involvement in the community and philanthropic activities.
"It's hard to imagine Palm Springs without Barbara Keller," Palm Springs Mayor Rob Moon said. "She was perhaps the kindest, most gentle, most generous and giving woman I have ever had the privilege to know. My heart goes out to Jerry, her devoted and loving husband who was always by her side."
Her husband Jerry spoke about her, “It’s been an amazing adventure, we’ve done more fun things and made more wonderful friends than we ever thought we could,” he said.
They were married for nearly four decades.
Friends say you can sum up her life by a quote from Anne Frank, one she lived by, ‘No one has ever became poorer by giving’.
