Harmon County Funeral Home

Darrell Lloyd “Hoss” Noller, 93, of Wheat Ridge, Colorado passed away Sunday, February 26, 2017 at Collier Hospice Center in Wheat Ridge, Colorado.

Lloyd was born in Clinton County, Illinois on April 30, 1923 to Carl T. and Gertrude M. (Bell) Noller.

Lloyd joined the Navy Seabees in February of 1943. He served in the South West Pacific Area of the Asiatic-Pacific Theater until his discharge in December of 1945.

After discharge, Lloyd worked in Chicago, Illinois where he met and married Virginia Merle Grissom in 1949. After Merle’s death in 1957, Lloyd farmed, which led him to Harmon County in 1962. He married Abigail Robinson on December 22, 1962.

She preceded him in death on July 17, 2004. He was preceded in death also by 4 brothers; Carl (Laura Frances “Shirley”), Ora, Norman “Red” (Velma), and David; and five sisters Katherine Kurth (Frank), Lenore “Midge” Pasquesi (Dante), Lena Roetemeyer (Hank), Charlene “Sissy” Milano (Dominick), and Rosalia Milano (Joseph).

He worked at farming, at the Gould Lumber Yard, as the Gould Water Superintendent, and as a member of Harmon County’s road maintenance crew. He also worked a number of years at Republic Gypsum in Duke, Oklahoma, as well as delivering the Daily Oklahoman and the Altus Times newspapers.

Lloyd was an active volunteer in the Gould American Legion, the Hollis Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Southwest Community Action, and a member of the Methodist Church in Hollis. He also served on the Gould School Board and was a Harmon County Commissioner.

Having grown up on a farm, he loved gardening, and raised a variety of birds including chickens, guineas peacocks, ducks, geese, and pheasants while living in rural Harmon County. Lloyd loved playing Santa Claus for Gould School, playing dominoes wherever a good game could be found, and having early morning coffee and sharing stories with friends and farmers at the Motley Gin. He always enjoyed riding Amtrak to the annual Noller-Milano family reunion in Illinois to catch up with relatives. Everyone always loved to hear his stories, and many laughs were shared by all.

Lloyd is survived by his daughter Janice Noller of Midvale, Utah, his son Benny and wife Erin of Golden, Colorado; and two grandchildren Nicholas Bradley of Denver, Colorado, and Laura Noller of Golden, Colorado.
