Ryan J. Locker

January 10, 1954 — January 26, 2023

Ryan John Locker, 69, of Casper, Wyoming passed away Thursday, January 26, 2023 at Wyoming Medical Center in Casper Wyoming.

Ryan was born on January 10, 1954 in Harvey, North Dakota to John and Dorothy Locker. He was the fourth child born to a family of six. The Lockers lived on a family farm outside of Balfour, ND. Ryan graduated from Balfour High School in 1972 where he attended North Dakota State University graduating with his Bachelor's degree in Ag Economics in 1975. After graduating from NDSU, Ryan accepted a position as loan officer for the Production Credit Association in Carrington, ND. There he met the love of his life Maria Brickner. Ryan and Maria married in April of 1978; together they had two sons, Adam and Aaron.

Later, the family relocated to Omaha, Nebraska where Ryan accepted a promotion with Farm Credit Services of America and after receiving another promotion, relocated to Greeley, Colorado, accepting his final promotion with FCS in Casper, Wyoming in 1997.

Ryan retired in March of 2002, after 25 years with FCS. His retirement brought him so much joy as could spend unlimited time with his children and his wife, Maria. Gardening, relaxing, working on his yard, flying model planes, cooking (and eating), as well as maintaining the house kept Ryan busy on most days.

He is preceded in death by his parents and one brother-in-law.

He is survived by his wife, Maria of 44 years; sons, Adam and Aaron; siblings, Leo (Sue) Locker, Sharon Wilson, Connie (Rick) Jorgenson, Howard (Marka) Locker, and Brenda (Harry) Duchscherer; numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives.

A Memorial Mass will be held in the Spring at St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Casper, WY.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations made to the Wyoming Rescue Mission or Food For The Poor.

Arrangements are under the direction of Newcomer Casper. To leave the family a special message, please select the "Share Memories" option.
