The daughter of Donnie and Christy Morrison Ramsey was born May 25, 2003 in Claremore, Oklahoma. She attended Chelsea Public Schools and was currently in the 3rd grade. For a girl of only 8 she had a very full life. An active softball player, dancer and cheerleader, she even loved to rodeo. Participating in barrel racing, and at one point even mutton busting. She even showed chickens while in 4H. Water however may have been her true passion. Playing in the creek, swimming at Blue Hole or even swimming at Mamaw and Grandma's house with her cousins. When the weather turned colder she could be found riding her bike or designing her own clothes. The occasional trip to McDonald's was always appreciated; she loved eating Chicken McNuggets. She was happy girl with a great smile who will be greatly missed.
