It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Ramona Ann Jacobs, born on January 21, 1942, in York, Pennsylvania to the late Edgar and Dorothy Wampler. Ramona departed this life on October 27, 2025, in Simpsonville, South Carolina, leaving behind a legacy of faith, compassion, dedication, and service.

Ramona was a beacon of strength and resilience throughout her life. She graduated from Bermudian Springs High School and continued her commitment to learning at South Carolina Baptist Hospital Nursing School in Columbia, South Carolina, where she earned her registered nursing degree. Her remarkable career as a registered nurse spanned 30 years, during which she served with distinction at Harrisburg Hospital and Yellow Breeches Family Practice in Pennsylvania. Ramona's nurturing spirit and unwavering dedication to her patients reflected her profound love for others.

An active member of several faith communities, Ramona was involved with Immanuel Christian and Missionary Alliance in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, First Baptist in Oviedo, Florida, Christ Community Church in Simpsonville, South Carolina, and most recently, Horizon Church in Greenville, South Carolina. Her faith was central to her life, and she found joy and purpose in attending Ladies Bible Studies and supporting her grandchildren's sporting events. She was an avid reader, gardener and enjoyed sewing, embroidery, and arranging flowers.
