Meet the Board Members

Kellie Clausen may not have been born in Wyoming, but she likes to say she got here as quickly as possible, and never intends to live elsewhere. She and her husband Robert own and work on the family ranch that has been in his family since his grandparents homesteaded in Converse County in 1910. She graduated from UCLA as a Nurse Practitioner and has recently retired from her 25 years in a thriving practice as a Family and Women’s Health Care Nurse Practitioner at Memorial Hospital of Converse County. The two enjoy spending time with their three adult children and their grandchildren. Kellie’s hobbies include ranch work, weight lifting, reading, cooking, gardening and world-wide travel. 

Kellie has been on the WYCF Casper Area Local Advisory Board since 2016 and has often said it is the most fun and rewarding volunteer position she has held. She is excited to expand her experience and see the impact statewide. She has been a County Committeewoman intermittently for many years, affording her a front-seat view with issues affecting the future. Kellie has served on boards and advised for several nursing and healthcare organizations, including as a founding member of the Converse County Breast Cancer Awareness Task Force and on the Wyoming State Board of Nursing, including two terms as President. Additionally, she extends her passion for volunteerism to youth and family services organizations, like Youth Development Services nonprofit in Converse County and the Converse County Coalition Against Family Violence. 

Steve Reimann is a third-generation Wyoming native, with a degree in Accounting from the University of Wyoming. After graduating, he worked as a CPA for several years in Denver, CO, but he and his wife, also a Wyoming native, desired a return to Wyoming and to raise their family here. They moved to Buffalo, WY in 1992, when Steve joined the family business, an independent gas station and tire/repair shop.  In 2013, Steve had the opportunity to join ANB Bank in Buffalo and was promoted to Community Bank President a year later.  Steve continues this work today and continues to hold his CPA license. Steve and his wife enjoy any time they spend with their three adult children, and also enjoy camping, paddle boarding, fly fishing and living life to the fullest.   

Steve is also a voracious volunteer. He has many years of continuous perfect attendance with the Kiwanis Club of Buffalo and has served in every Club capacity, including Lieutenant Governor. Steve has been a more than twenty-year member of the Johnson County Library Foundation, a fifteen-year member of the St. John the Baptist Catholic Church Foundation, and a seven-year member of the WYCF Sheridan-Johnson Local Advisory Board. Steve previously served for more than twenty years on the City of Buffalo Planning Commission and four years as an elected Trustee to the Johnson County School District #1. He frequently cantors at Church and enjoys serving his community and getting to know his community better through his service. 

Patti Roser was born and raised in Salt Lake City, UT, the youngest of a family of seven. In addition to a passion for music emphasized by college choirs, recitals, and music groups, she graduated top of her class in Accounting from Westminster College. Accounting seemed to pick her, having worked as a bookkeeper and accountant for family businesses all through college. Since marrying her husband in 1980, they have traveled extensively in the US and Canada, camping all along the way and becoming avid birdwatchers. Now that they are both retired, Patti and Andrew continue to check off international bucket list travel spots. She enjoys knitting, singing, visiting national parks, and bird watching, and spending time with their many grandnieces, grandnephews. 

Patti’s interests include social service volunteering, with emphasis on single parent families and children by providing accounting and tax services as needed. Helping single parents complete tax returns is a humbling experience and the knowledge gained about the struggles of low income people and how they strive to improve the lives and circumstances of their children. She was involved with Habitat for Humanity; she may not be able to hammer a nail, but she can provide accounting services to save the cost of hiring a controller or CFO. She still sings with local chorale groups and volunteers with the JH Chorale as treasurer and grant writer for seven years. Living near Grand Teton National Park she has been lucky enough to volunteer at the park and the Jackson Hole Wildlife Foundation on citizen science programs. 

We are excited to welcome Kellie, Steve, and Patti to the board and appreciate the expertise and passion they will contribute to our organization! See our full list of the Wyoming Community Foundation Statewide Board here.
