Ryan Clifton Keim

Ryan was born in Stayton Oregon to Dale and Wanda Keim. As a child he attended Stayton Elementary School, Middle and High Schools. He was also a member of Foothills church. Growing up he was involved in different sports until he was old enough to drive. He then turned his focus into his lifelong passion…cars! Ryan married LeAnn Wright in September of 1990. They had three children, Son Brandon Clifton in February of 1992, Tanner Ryan in January of 1996, and Alexis RyAnn in May of 1998. These kids were his pride and joy! Ryan worked in construction for many years until starting with Pacific Sanitation where he worked for the last 18 years. He made friends with many folks on his route all the way up the Santiam Canyons. Most recently driving ash trucks from the Brooks burner to Coffin Butte. He felt privileged and proud to drive a new international semi with side dump. He was always involved with his kids and their various activities attending every sporting event. From T-ball, soccer, basketball, football, volleyball, cheer, and dirt bike racing. Most recently reconnecting with hot rods and drag racing. He was often a babysitter for his six grand dogs and his two nieces Milana and Shelby over the years. In his spare time, you would find him in a shop, with either his sons or buddies. There you would find him either working or goofing off. Once drag season starts in March you would find him there. Ryan was survived by his Grandmother Bonnie Henson of Twin Falls Id., parents Dale and Wanda Keim of McMinnville, his son Brandon (Bailey) Keim of Sublimity, son Tanner Keim of Sublimity, daughter Alexis Keim of Bend, sister Jana (Keim) Bell of Aumsville, two nieces and his 6 Grand-dogs. There is nothing he wouldn't do for his loved ones and friends.
