Shirley Ann Ramey

Shirley Ann Ramey passed away, at her home on Trestle Creek, on Wednesday, April 5, 2017.

The family will host a celebration of her life at a later date. She is loved and will be remembered.

Shirley Ann (Proctor) Ramey was born to Richard and Clara (Berg) Proctor on Nov. 14, 1938. She attended and graduated from Newport, Wash., schools in 1957. She then attended Eastern Washington University, Washington State University and North Idaho College.

In May 1960, she married Daryl Ramey and together they raised two sons, Kenneth and Todd. She worked as city clerk in Hope, Idaho for 25-plus years and so enjoyed her work that she never missed a council meeting even while battling cancer. Shirley loved the outdoors; was an avid gardener and member of the local garden club. She could also be seen around town sporting hats and scarves while lunching with the Red Hat Society.

Shirley is survived by her husband of 57 years, Daryl Ramey; sons, Todd Ramey and Kenneth Ramey; sister, Carol Monk; grandson, Alex Ramey; granddaughter, Rachel (Ramey) Barrios; great-grandson, Oliver Barrios; and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.

The family would like to express its appreciation to the Bonner County EMS and sheriff’s departments for their kind and loving care during this difficult time. Memorials may be made to the Hope Community Center, Hope, Idaho, in memory of Shirley Ann Ramey.

Family and friends are invited to sign the online guestbook, for Shirle at coffeltfuneral.com.

Final arrangements are under the care of Coffelt Funeral Service of Sandpoint.
