Clifford "Cliff" Kahler
1934 - 2013
VETERAN
Cliff was born August 28, 1934, in Chasely, North Dakota, to John and Maggie Kahler. He was raised in Tuttle, North Dakota, graduating from Tuttle High School in 1952. Clifford joined the United States Navy in 1953; a Veteran of the Korean War. Following his honorable discharge in 1957, he moved to Missoula where he continued to reside. He worked for the Coke Company, delivered beer for Missoula Distributing Co.; then Stone Container, retiring after 25 years. Cliff had two sons from a previous marriage. In 1983, he married Phyllis Camitsch and gained three daughters. He was a member of the Eagles, VFW and American Legion. His neighbors appointed him the official "Mayor of Humble Road." He loved to dance with his wife (and lots of other ladies). He enjoyed drinking beer and entertaining friends and family by the pool in his back yard. He would always say he was a "tough SOB!"
Cliff was preceded in death by his parents and ten siblings. Survivors include his wife, Phyllis; two sons, John and Robin Kahler, both residing in Arizona; three daughters: Tawnia of Missoula, Tamara (Rick) of Florida and Amy (Chad) of Virginia; six grandchildren: Jacob, Jeneya Ashley, Brittany, Alaina, Makenna and Kaden; his sister, Jackie Lloyd; his two sisters-in-law, Freda and Stoney; numerous nieces and nephews – in his words: "One helluva bunch!"
