Nita passed away Sunday, May 19, 2013 at the age of 83.

The daughter of Robert Charles "R.C." and Grace Sparkman Payne was born September 27, 1929 in Hondo, New Mexico.

As a young girl Nita was raised in the Roswell area. She attended Roswell schools graduating in 1948. On December 15, 1948 Nita married William "Bill" Ramm in Carlsbad, New Mexico. A short time later they left New Mexico and after a couple of short stays, settled in Claremore, Oklahoma in 1964. It didn't take Nita long to begin her working career there. With some business college experience, she began working for Mr. Farley. There she helped do bookkeeping and tax returns. However, in the early part of the 1970s, Nita found her calling in real estate. She earned her license and started Ramm Real Estate, becoming one of the first realtors in the area. In 2011 she retired after 40 years of service. Her hobbies included: raising flowers, gardening, and taking care of the family's exotic animals.

She is preceded in death by her parents, R.C. and Grace Payne, husband, Bill Ramm, brothers, Bill and Otis Payne, and granddaughter Shawnette Hayden
