He was born on Alpowa Ridge, the sixth of 13 children, to Richard and Ollie Burris Koller of Pomeroy, on April 29, 1914. He had six brothers and six sisters. He spent most of his youth on the family farm on Lynn Gulch in Garfield County, receiving an eighth-grade education in a one-room school on Lynn Gulch. After working in many agricultural jobs, he moved to Los Angeles in 1937 and worked as a motorman on streetcars until he was inducted into the armed forces in 1944. He served as a medic on a troop ship traveling between San Francisco and Japan. While in California he married Geraldine Kraemer, also of Pomeroy, on Feb. 25, 1941, and together in 1945 they had twin children, Lee and Lois. Following his honorable discharge from the Army in 1946, he moved back to Pomeroy to join his family and worked first at the local pea cannery and then as a mechanic at McKiernan's, before finally returning to farming full time in the spring of 1949 on McGrann Hill Road, not far from the home place where he grew up. He farmed there until 1980 when he retired, turning the operation over to his son. In addition to their two children, he and Jerrie have two grandchildren, Mitchell and Courtney. He loved his family, farming, hunting, fishing, trapshooting and a good game of cribbage. He was a great husband, father, and grandfather. He will be missed. Survivors names omitted per findagrave policy. He was preceded in death by his parents; sisters Mable Koller, Virgie Oldenberg, Blanche Ruark and Dorothy Feider; and brothers Edwin and Clarence. So long, Dad, be seeing you again someday. Lewiston Tribune April 5, 2008
