About Me
A chemical engineer from the University of Colorado, who worked for Procter and Gamble for 6 years before returning to the University of Missouri to get a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree.
24 years pet practice, mostly housecalls. Now I am retired from being a Public Health Veterinarian for the USDA, Food Safety and Inspection Service.
Two kids, two granddaughters, one grandson, married to the same lady since 1970.
The original J-Bar was my paternal grandfather, C. W. B. Bryan, Texan by birth, orphaned in the Civil War, rancher in New Mexico near Clayton. His picture hangs in the Capitol building in Sante Fe, one of the state representatives in 1917. He branded his cattle with an underlined capital "J" brand, and was known as "J-Bar Bryan" most of his life. An ornery so-and-so by most accounts...I guess he had to be in order to survive.
