Ralph saw his first light of day on April 11, 1921, in Ledyard, Iowa. His proud parents were Walter and Olive (Lyon) Dutton. Ralph's passion in life was to farm the land of this great nation. Thus, after serving his country in the Army Air Corps, Pacific Theater during World War II (1942-1946), he returned to the Blue Earth area to begin a farming career that spanned over 60 years. He married Ilean Yvonne Procknow on May 7, 1943, upon completion of his military training in Los Angeles, Calif. They would have celebrated 70 years of marriage on May 7, 2013. During his farming career, Ralph also established a fine dairy herd of registered Holsteins (Duttondale Holsteins) that won many awards for production at dairy shows on the local, regional and state level.
Ralph and Ilean raised three sons, Ron (Nancy) veterinarian, of Atlanta, Ga, Roger (LaDonna) farmer, of Blue Earth, and Randy (Sin Cha) optometrist, of Knoxville, Tenn. He is also survived by eight grandchildren, Casey (Kelly) Powell of San Diego, Calif., Samantha (James) Oliver of Lakeville, Minn., Brent (Leslie) Dutton of Charlotte, N.C., Ryan (Arlette) Dutton of Blue Earth, Lance Dutton of Atlanta, Ga., Courtney (Brian) Helmstetter of Lakeville, Minn., Amanda Dutton of Quincy, Ill., and Christopher Dutton of Miami, Fla. Ralph is also survived by nine great-grandchildren. Finally, he is survived by a younger brother, Robert of Ashville, N.C., and a younger sister, Marian Eastvold of Forest City, Iowa.
Ralph was preceded in death by his parents; sisters, Helen Onsen, Laura Dobson, Dorothy Hanson, and a young child sister, Elsie B. Dutton. [2]
