My condolences to the entire Ramey family. I know his daughter Dru Ramey from GGU Law School. I am an alum and she is our Dean. Thank you James for having a wonderful daughter and for modeling how to be a leader.

Maybe sweet memories of James console you all at this time. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Blessings,
Bernadette St. John
