August 14, 1966 ~ October 30, 2017

On October 30, 2017, our beloved little brother, Douglas E. Keller went home to be with the Lord Jesus. He was graciously greeted in heaven by our father and mother: Harold and Renate Keller. Dougie (as we called him) was born on August 14, 1966 in Painesville. In his early years, he grew up in Perry, eventually moving to Rock Creek and attending Rock Creek Elementary School, then Jefferson Area High School. A few years after high school , he became a Geneva area resident. Dougie loved cooking for his friends. He enjoyed raising a garden every year, and then sharing his harvest with his family and friends. He liked working on cars, buying dvds and old movies and sharing them with his friends. Our brother had such a good heart. Many times, he would share his food with families making sure their children always had a full belly. He was always doing something for someone. Our little brother was a prankster and his mischievous side got him in to trouble. He was known to duct tape a friends car a time or two. Pranking his brothers was a common occurrence since he worked with them at HSM Builders. He was skilled in electrical, heating, plumbing, air conditioning, and refrigeration. Family was very important to Doug and we all stuck together no matter what. With that being said, until we meet again in heaven, he leaves behind his brothers: David and Yleanna Keller, Dan, Dennis, Dwaine and Cheryl Keller, sister: Darlene Janson; nieces: Christel Janson, Kim , Carrie , Renee, Rachel Keller, and Nikki LaRusch; nephews: Peter and Cameron Janson, Joshua Keller; several great nieces, nephews and many friends. Friends will be received from 2:00 to 4:00 pm on Sunday, November 5, 2017 at the Behm Family Funeral Home, 175 South Broadway in Geneva. There will be a Funeral Service following at 4:00pm. Burial will take place at East Trumbull Cemetery. Friends may leave condolences online at www.behmfuneral.com

  1. Doug was funny and prankster we drank bunch of beer together. We both had gardens and competed little bit. My condolences to his family and other friends.

  2. Very sorry to hear of Dougs passing. I never knew him very well but he was a nice fella. My sorrows go out to all of his family and friends.

  3. My condolences to the Keller family. I remember Doug in his younger years when the family owned Hunters Inn & I was friends with Doug's brother Dan. I can still see Doug & his sister coming in the front doors of the Inn after school. I remember how loving his parents were and how close knit the family was. Good people. Doug is now reunited with his parents. May he rest in peace & I pray for his brothers & sister to find comfort in their memories & in each other.

  4. Although I hadn't seen Dougie in many years, I will remember him fondly. My most sincere condolences to his family and friends.
