Born on April 12, 1976, Ryan was raised outside Pueblo, CO. After graduating from Pueblo County High School, he attended New Mexico State University where he obtained a BS in Agricultural Economics. He spent his career in agriculture – with the family farm and ranch and later was a licensed real estate broker in TX, NM and CO with focus on farm and ranch.
He enjoyed rodeoing in his younger years in the events of team roping and calf roping. His first love was always horses followed by his dogs – Rooster, Beef and Tex. He was the life of any party and loved by his friends who spanned far and wide.
Ryan was devoted to his family. He is survived by his mother Judy Tatsch, sisters Kimberly and Marcy Tatsch, brother-in-law David Lucente and nieces Sarah and Abigail. He was preceded in death by his father, Gary Tatsch. He is gone too soon and will be greatly missed.
A memorial service will be held at the Pueblo Country Club, 3200 8th Ave., Pueblo, CO 81008 on Saturday, March 7th, 2026, at 2 PM. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Temple Grandin Equine Center at the Colorado State University https://agsci.colostate.edu/tgec/ and the Cowboys for Cancer Research at New Mexico State University https://c4cr.com/.
