Mr. Donald William Ramage, 84, of Murray, passed away Saturday, March 8, 2025 at Baptist Health Paducah.
Donald loved being outside and enjoyed nature. His dream job was the years he spent as an active farmer. Even after transitioning away from that, he loved to hunt and trap. Then he spent his later years growing a huge, some would say, much too huge garden. These were the great joys of his life. He was a member of Dyer Hill Baptist Church from childhood thru much of his life. He served in the Army.
He is survived by; wife, Ollie Mae (Martin) Ramage; sons, William (Janine) Ramage of Cheyenne, WY. and Dr. Jay Ramage of Murray; daughter, Vaneece Alvey of Murray; brothers, James David Ramage of Madisonville and Dr. Thomas Daniel (Judy) Ramage of Roswell, NM.; grandchildren, Shawn (Sasha) Ramage, Kyra Jo Ramage, Scott (Chelsea) Ramage, Eric (Ashley) Alvey and Tayler (Jerid) Schmidt; great-grandchildren, Jasmine Ramage, Hannah Ramage, Gweneth Ramage and Haisley Alvey, Whitley Faith Alvey.
Donald was preceded in death by; parents, Roy W. and Corene (Peck) Ramage; brother, Vance Ramage; sisters, Vandline Ramage and Shirley Vaneece Ramage, and son-in-law Darrell Alvey.
