Keith Renstrom Actor

In addition to some news articles from The Ogden Standard about parts in local plays and running a successful community theater with Jody Renstrom for nearly 40 years and acting in several of these productions, Keith  was also an extra in a local film.
Little Known Fact:
Keith Renstrom was an extra in "It Nearly Wasn't Christmas."
His son was too, but I haven't found him yet.
You can find Keith as part of the train crew that helps Santa Clause, Charles Durning, off the train, the Heber Creeper.  It was very fun to see him so "Young."  The film was made in 1989 and Keith was already almost 70 and white haired.  But his youth really shows with the spring in his step.  Now he is 95 years old and just as sharp as ever but much slower in body.  You can view the film on youtube at the following link.
