She was known to open her door to all. Her cooking and hospitality were legendary.
She was a devoted member of the Peoples Baptist Church for many, many years.
She was a strong loving, caring mother, not only to her own children, but to many others as well. Mrs. Ramsey was an example of a true Christian.
Today as we celebrate her going home, her children would like the world to know what a special mother she was to them. And we thank her from the bottom of our hearts.
We will truly miss her until we meet again.
