Obituary for Brian Witt Ramey

BRIAN WITT RAMEY

Brian Witt Ramey, age 64 of Brookville, passed away on March 27, 2023, after a lengthy illness. Brian was born on March 29, 1958, in Richmond, the son of the late Carl E. and Lois Witt Ramey. 

He is a 1976 graduate of Union County High School and attended I.U. East for a semester. Upon discovering college was not for him, he joined the US Navy in October 1977. While he served aboard the USS O’Bannon for two years, he was able to see many beautiful countries. He was honorably discharged in 1981. 

Brian retired after 25 years of service as a mail carrier for the United States Postal Service. In his younger days, he loved searching for Indian artifacts throughout Union County, where he did discover some very rare artifacts.  He loved the outdoors. You could find him relaxing by watching the wildlife outside of his back door or walking through the woods mushroom hunting and enjoying nature.

His memories will be forever cherished by his sister, Mary Nell Ramey; his long time companion, Connie Metzger and his best friend and neighbor, Kevin Tipton. He will be thought of often by several aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Besides his parents, he is preceded in death by his sister, Carla E. Moore.

In keeping with Brian’s wishes, cremation was chosen. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

Memorial contributions may be made to the Union County Cancer Association, 43 West Union Street, Liberty, IN 47353.

Urban Winkler Liberty Funeral Home is honored to assist Brian’s family with the arrangements.
