Just after xmas 2010 I recieved a call from my friend Sams wife Krista....w/the news that Sam had passed from this life....Sam had been in Maine taking care of personal matters after his Fathers death (he had lost his Mom the xmas before) & Sam died of heart failure....an illness that had plagued him for several years & led to his retiring from active US military duty!!
@ the time drama between forums was prevalent & it was decided it'd be best not to discuss these matters online to avoid the inevitable comments....would now like to give Sam the long over-due post & respect he so deserved!!
Sam was a loving husband & father....a loyal friend....& a hotheaded Marine....he loved guitar....Sam was a longtime member of several forums using the account names LPCustom & JacksonS1!!
Obituary:
"Samuel J. Ramsey - Staff Sgt. Samuel J. Ramsey, 39, U.S. Marine Corps, retired, was unexpectedly taken Thursday, Jan. 7, 2010, at his father's residence. He was born July 17, 1970, a son of Martin and Lorraine (Garceau) Ramsey. He retired from the U.S. Marine Corps after proudly serving for 14 years. He was an avid guitarist and loved all music. His true passion was the Marines and he went above and beyond for his Marine brothers. He is survived by his wife, two step daughters, a sister and her husband, and two nieces. He was predeceased by his mother in Dec. 25, 2006, and his father, Dec. 25, 2009. A memorial service will be conducted.
RIP Sam....love you my brother....you are missed my friend!!
