Glenda Jean Keller

Glenda Jean (Olderog) Keller, 69, of Fort Collins, Colorado peacefully passed away at home surrounded by all her family November 2, 2025. She was born on January 31, 1956, in Seattle, Washington to Roland Glen "Oley" Olderog and Dona Jean (Osman) Olderog. The family soon moved to Westminster Colorado where Oley built their home himself. Oley, an avid outdoorsman, took the family on many enjoyable camping and fishing adventures in the Rocky Mountains. Glenda said some of her best memories were from their many trips to Brooks Lake and the Diamond G Ranch in Wyoming. Glenda graduated from Westminster High School. She attended Denver University and the University of Northern Colorado obtaining her bachelor's degree while faithfully attending to her beloved horse Tacoma every day. While working at The Chinook Bookshop in Colorado Springs, she met her future husband, Steven Keller, in 1980. They never looked back after that initial chance meeting and were married on September 24, 1983, in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Son Clinton Matthew was born in 1989 and their daughter Caitlin Marie followed in 1992. Glenda graduated from the Denver Paralegal Institute and worked for several prestigious law firms in Colorado Springs before the family moved to Fort Collins in 1995, where she began working with the firm Hassler, Fonfara and Maxwell, LLP. She flourished in her career there until 2015, when she accepted a position as contracting paralegal at Colorado State University with the Office of General Council, where she worked until her retirement in 2020. Glenda loved Aspen trees, her horse, anything Danish (especially her relatives in Denmark), all books and maps, nature, outdoor sports, and travel. She was fiercely loyal to her friends and family and took particular pride in her birthday list which she consulted almost daily to make sure she always sent a card or greeting on time. She was known for her honesty, integrity, dedication to fairness, sometimes exhausting thoroughness and follow through, and wonderfully gentle nature. Survivors include Glenda's husband, Steven Keller of Fort Collins, CO; son Clinton Keller of Winchester, Virgina; daughter Caitlin Keller of Ashland, Oregon; sister Krissann Millard of Loveland, CO; niece Lana Millard Waneka and husband Gus of Fort Collins, CO; and nephew Ryan Millard of Loveland, CO. Glenda was preceded in death by her father, mother, and brother-in-law Robert (Bob) Millard.

The family would like to thank Pathways Hospice for the loving care provided to Glenda.

The immediate family will have a private ceremony, per Glenda's wishes at a later date graveside at Grandview Cemetery 1900 West Mountain Avenue, Fort Collins, CO. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions can be made to the Nature Conservancy or to a charity of your choice.
