Donald E. Goller (August 27, 1933-April 24, 2012)
Well known Powell electrical contractor, Donald E. Goller, 78, died unexpectedly but peacefully sometime after noon, Tuesday April 24, 2012 in his office at home.
Don was born August 27, 1933 in Havre Montana to Paul McDaniel Goller and Alice Marie Kurtz.  He joined older brother Vernon and was followed by younger brother Alan.  His family lived on the Highline in Montana where his father taught school and when Don was 8 the family moved to Hardin Montana where he would complete his schooling.  
On December 5, 1953 He married Rebecca Ruth Ferrell in Billings Montana.  Before moving to Powell in 1965 they lived in Hardin, where Kenneth Glenn and Donna Marie were born, Stevensville where Linda Kaye was born and Scobey Montana.  In Powell Don opened the Rip’s Shoes store which was in business for ten years.  After closing the store he found his lifetime career starting as an apprentice electrician, then journeyman, which led to opening his own electrical business.  He had just received a 30 year achievement award as Master Electrician from the State of Wyoming.  He loved the electrical contracting business and the contractors he worked for but he especially loved the people and the ability to make their home a brighter place.  He enjoyed traveling, four wheeling, fishing and entertaining family and friends at his cabin in the Beartooths.
Don is survived by his sweetheart and helper, Ruth, daughters Donna Goller and Linda (Mark) Lynn all of Powell,  daughter-in-law Ruby of Hurricane Utah, brother Alan (Gayla) Goller of Tacoma Washington, sister-in-law Connie Goller of Cottonwood Heights Utah, 15 grandchildren and 24 great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Dr. Vernon Goller, son Kenneth G. Goller and sister-in-law Jacquelin Ferrell.
Services were held Saturday, April 28, 2012 and the burial was in the Byron cemetery.
Don was a loving and doting husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, son and friend.  He will be missed dearly by all that he left behind and greeted with joy by those who have gone on before.
