Raymond Alvin Siemer was born July 5, 1935, in Morgan, MN to Frank and Viola (Dallman) Siemer. He enlisted in the Army and was stationed in Hawaii from 1957-1959.

Ray was united in marriage to Arleen Stueber and together they raised their three daughters. For a majority of his life, Ray was employed as a salesman, until he created, owned, and operated Midwest Concrete Grooving. Ray enjoyed entertaining family and friends while relishing in a good brandy and fishing while spending time at his cabin on Lake Allie.

In the last few years of his life, many days Ray could be found outside Oak Hills, on his scooter, in his signature hat and jacket, waving to numerous people passing by.
