TOM E RAMSEY

July 28, 1939 - April 18, 2016

Tom E. Ramsey of Wickenburg passed away at his home on April 18th at the age of 76. He was born on July 28, 1939, the son of H.S. and Gladys Ramsey in Globe, Arizona. Tom was a cowboy through and through. He was an amazing cattle rancher, team roper and race horse owner. Although he had been on amazing travels all around the world nothing made him happier than being back home in his beloved state of Arizona. If you ask anyone who knew him, they will have an amazing story to tell. As a friend of his recently said, “heaven just got a lot more fun”. Tom is preceded in death by his wife Julie Ramsey, both of his parents and many dear friends. He is survived by his longtime girlfriend JD Grant, children Amy Olson(Michael), Molly Mahar (David), Tracey Anderson and Greg Ramsey (Mary). Grandchildren: Maddie and Brooks Olson, Mya Mahar, Allie and Tim Anderson, Tom Drew, Kaitlyn and CJ Ramsey. We, Molly and Amy would like to thank all of Dad’s great friends who have continually visited him this past year. He truly did have the most amazing friends and we are so grateful for each and everyone of you. We would also like to thank JD and Greg for all that you have done for Dad during these difficult last few months. A graveside service will be held on Friday April 29th at 11:00am at the Peeples Valley Cemetery on Highway 89. A lunch reception will follow from Noon-3:00pm at the Wickenburg Country Club, 1420 N. Country Club Dr. No need to be formally dressed for the occasion, Tom wouldn’t want anyone wearing a suit and tie on his behalf. In lieu of flowers please consider making a donation to the Yavapai County Mounted Sheriff’s Posse P.O. Box 95 Prescott, AZ 86302 or the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center.
