Raymond Calvin Vandeventer was born March 15, 1927, at Charles City, the son of Ernest and Grace (Naber) Vandeventer. He received his education from the Charles City schools. Ray proudly served in the United States Army during World War II and always took special pride in the fact that he was in the honor guard for President Truman in Washington D.C.

Ray was a member of the First Baptist Church, the Moose Lodge and Heritage Club. His interests included hunting, fishing, trapping, playing cards, working on tractors, and collecting Oliver memorabilia. Ray always looked forward to spending time with his family and friends. Special times included the family reunions and coffee times with the retired White Farm employees and the Saturday Men's Prayer Group.
