To Mom: From Reneé Ramsey
I did as much as I could for you mom. Unfortunately you didn't make it. I love and miss you very much. I'll try and remember all the good times we had together instead of the bad. You left me so quickly, I wish we had a lot more time together. I look at the pictures of our lives together. There are so many fond memories.
My life now is lonely without you. Now I must go on, until we meet again. May my mother always be in peace with The Lord now, and know she was always loved by me and all her family and friends, and I'll continue to lover her forever and never forget her.

Dear Ramsey Family,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of such a wonderful loving woman. Sharon was always so kind and loving. She always put the needs of others before her own. I am honored that I was able to know such a remarkable person. I truly enjoyed all the times we were able to come up and visit. I know those times will never be forgotten. May your family find comfort in knowing that she is now singing with the Angels. She will be so missed by all that have ever had the chance to know and love her. Love Melinda

Dear Grandma Ramsey,
Though you never had a chance to watch me grow up, you were always there with me in my heart. I'm glad to say all of my memories that I spent with you were always fun and joyful times. I can't believe you're gone. I wish we would had more times together. I wish I would had called you more often, or took the time to write you a letter. Now all that is left are my memories. Hopefully someday i'll be able to meet you again. I will never forget you.
Love always,
Zachary Ramsey
