Robert (Bob) Ryan Dorr

July 31, 1954 — July 13, 2024

Robert Ryan Dorr was born on July 31, 1954, in St. Paul, MN.  He was adopted and came to live with his parents, Dr. Warren F. Dorr and Edna Dorr Nelson in Jeffers, MN.  Bob attended Jeffers Public School and graduated in 1972 from Storden-Jeffers Public School.  He went on to the University of St. Thomas and graduated with a business degree.  He furthered his education at Mankato State.  Bob met the love of his life Gayle DuPaul, and they married on November 14, 1998.  They resided in Richfield, Burnsville and most recently Tucson, Arizona.  Bob passed away suddenly at his family lake home on Lake Shetek July 13, 2024, at the age of 69.

Bob loved his family and the Lord.  He was a true man of God and lived his life honoring his Faith.  He gave the best hugs!  His favorite place on earth was his family's lake home on Lake Shetek.  He loved to read, play cards, was an avid hockey fan, enjoyed hunting and golfing.  He loved volunteering at the Tucson VA Hospital, and loved to travel with Gayle.

Bob is survived by his loving wife, Gayle, and Dog Finn; sisters, Shawna (Mark) Jones and Tanley Dorr; brothers-in-law, Randy (Chris) DuPaul, Dave DuPaul and Mark (Amy Roberts) DuPaul; nephews, Matthew (Amanda) Langland, Timothy Jones, Patrick (Tana) DuPaul; nieces, Lindsay (Kevin Johnson) Langland, Riley Jones, Sara (Rachel) DuPaul, Madyn DuPaul, Kira DuPaul; and many great-nephews and great-nieces. Bob is preceded in death by his parents, step-father Victor J. Nelson; father-in-law, Girard DuPaul; mother-in-law, Evelyn DuPaul. 

Bob was loved by all and will be greatly missed.  Blessed be the memory of Robert Ryan Dorr.
