MITCHELL – Surrounded by her family, Jerrie Ruth Ramey, 91, went to be with her Lord on Thursday, March 3, 2016, at Indiana University Health Bedford Hospital.
Born November 28, 1924, in Ashland, Kentucky, she was the daughter of James Gratt and Bertha Nadine (Cooksey) Crockett. She married Walter W. Ramey April 29, 1983, and he preceded her in death in 1995.
Jerrie lived a long rewarding life in her 91 years making many friends along the way. For the past ten years, she had resided at White River Lodge. She enjoyed spending time with her family there watching UK basketball games and playing bingo. When her life-long friend, Dorothy Daugherty, became a resident of the Lodge, the two were inseparable and she gained two additional daughters in Juanita and Rose. Jerrie took great pleasure in always sharing stories about all her grandchildren.
