Presented to Keith B. Elliott
In Recognition of Your Outstanding Contributions to the Chamber and Your Commitment to the Webster Community

- Innovative business strategies
- Recognized business leadership as a role model
This year’s recipient has all of these qualities and many more...
Keith Elliott has been with Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Company in Fairport for over 25 years. As many of you know, being in a Financial Planning practice can have its ups and downs depending on many factors you have no control over. Financial success doesn’t happen by chance. It has much more to do with choice. Transforming aspirations into actuality takes keen insight,
hard work, discipline, and strategic financial planning. Keith is able to combine all of these
abilities with the genuine desire to help his clients to achieve all their dreams and goals,
which isn’t always an easy task. Many times, due to unforeseen circumstances, health,
accidents, life situations, plans may need to be revised and Keith is always there in a willing role
to make the adjustments and recommendations to get folks back on track.
He gets great satisfaction in being able to see his clients (many he calls friends) reach their dreams. He enjoys being an integral part of their lives, helping them obtain their goals.
Keith has strong community involvement with the Webster Arboretum, Webster Comfort Care, Webster Athletics, and the Webster Young Entrepreneurs; he is on the Chamber’s Case for Business Committee and President of the Chamber from 2002 - 2004. He truly believes that Webster is “Where Life is Worth Living” and loves the park trails, our fabulous school system, community activities, and when he drives over the bridge from work each day, just feels like he is coming home.
Keith Elliott resides in Webster with his wife, Joan, and daughters Jessica and Chelsea.
Congratulations, Keith!
