Anthony "Tony" Joseph Ramsey

Tony Ramsey, 58, passed away in his home on January 24, 2021. He was the son of the late Rev. Jake and Evangeline Ramsey. Tony was a loving husband, father, brother, friend and caregiver to those in need. He will be greatly missed in this life but has been gladly and happily welcomed to his heavenly home by his daughter, Sarah Elizabeth Ramsey, his parents, his father-in-law, Rev. John Neese, his grandparents and several aunts, uncles and cousins.

In June 1989 he married Connie Louise Neese Ramsey. On February 12, 1996 Benjamin Micah was born into their lives. Benjamin was the delight and joy of his father’s life. From 2001-2009 he pastored churches in southwest VA. In 2009 when he brought his family home from that mission he then found a new mission in caring for the disabled and developmentally challenged.
