He attended Clinton Schools and graduated with the class of 1997. He was confirmed at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Clinton and now a member of Zion Lutheran Church. Ryan owned and operated Kimberly Auto Mart and Road Runner Auto Carrier in Davenport since he started them in 1997. Ryan met and soon married the True Love of his life, Kylee Jeanne Johnson on September 27, 2008 in a fairy tale wedding at the home of her parents. These days Ryan’s happiness came from passionately providing and caring for his and Kylee's adorable baby daughters, Bristol Vera and Piper Ryan. Ryan also loved spending time with his family that was so very dear to him. Ryan was drawn swiftly from the waters of Holy Baptism on July 8, 1978 at St. Joseph Hospital in Joliet where he was prematurely born. His celebration of baptism and naming of Godparents was on October 1, 1978 at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Joliet. Our Heavenly Father was once again called upon prematurely to draw Ryan from the waters of the mighty Mississippi and take this dear child to his eternal home on Saturday June 9, 2012.
