My condolences to the Goeller family. I knew Pat through Boy Scout Troop 93. Pat always had a kind word, smile, and something uplifting to say. As a leader, he was outstanding to work with and be around. Folks gravitated to Pat, not only because of his personality, but also because he made you feel good about yourself. His character, caring, and commitment to his family were always so visible to others. He was someone to look up to, to use as a benchmark of what it means to be a Father, and as a man of values and character.
I will always remember Pat at a Troop whitewater rafting trip and at our Klondike - a good man focused on his sons and the task at hand.
The world is less for his passing, as we need more men like Pat in this world. Pat, thank you for your friendship, leadership by example, and your kindness through the years. You will never be forgotten. Men like you are few and far between.
May you Rest in Peace and let perpetual light shine upon you.

While we never had the chance to meet Patrick, his character is clearly reflected in the man he raised. Devon´s many wonderful qualities are a testament to the incredible role model he had in his father.
There is a quiet comfort in knowing Patrick´s best parts-his kindness, his strength, and his heart-live on so clearly in Devon. Our hearts are with the whole family as we honor a legacy of love that carries on through the next generation.
Rest in peace, Patrick.

Devon Goeller and Family - so sorry to hear about Patrick. I remember your Dad coming to the hockey rink to watch you and my son Dylan Lampka play hockey together. I knew he was a great family man and he was always such a nice parent to talk to. Cherish your memories.
