Dr. Raymond "Doc" Ryan, the son of John and Clara (Harlan) Ryan, was born October 16, 1914 in Wabasha County near Plainview, MN. He attended country schools for the primary years and then stayed with relatives who lived closer to town for his high school years. Following his graduation from Plainview High School in 1932, Doc went to work for a dairy farmer in the area for three years. In 1935, he enrolled at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis in Agricultural Education. In 1938, he was accepted into the College of Veterinary Medicine at Iowa State University, graduating in 1942. He started his practice of veterinary medicine in Lake Mills when he replaced a vet who had been drafted. The Lake Mills vet returned from the war in November of 1945 so he needed to find a place for his practice. Shortly after, he located in Garner replacing the late Dr. Samuel Wesson. In addition to this practice, Doc became an inspector at the Garner Sales Barn. In 1979, Doc retired from his practice. He never forgot the good clients who he claimed were the reason for his successful business. On February 7, 1948, Raymond was united in marriage to Regina (Jean) Henry at St. Michael Catholic Church in Whittemore. To this union two daughters were born. His favorite pastimes were listening and dancing to Big Band music, traveling with his wife, Jean, and helping out when an extra hand was needed on their farm near Woden. He was a member of St. Boniface Catholic Church, a life member of Knights of Columbus and a past member of the Garner Lions Club. Doc was a life member of the Iowa Veterinarian Medical Association, a member of the National Veterinarian Medical Association and a past president of the Upper Iowa Veterinarian Medical Association. Those left to cherish his memory are his daughters, Mary (Roger) Kopacek of Britt and Kathleen (Patrick) McCabe of Mankato, MN; grandchildren, Kara Steffensmeier, Andrew Kopacek, Ryan McCabe, Joseph (Virginia) McCabe and Dr. Jonathan McCabe; four great-grandchildren, Mitchell, Matthew and Aidan Steffensmeier and Gisele McCabe; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Jean, March 9, 2012; five sisters; and two brothers.
