Anita Ramm Obituary
Anita Fay Ramm passed away peacefully under hospice care in Mansfield on the morning on February 14, 2022.

De, as she was known to all her friends and family, was born in Vernon on May 28, 1928, to Murray and Hazel (Hewes) Fay. She graduated from Hall High School in West Hartford, the University of Connecticut at Storrs and did graduate work at both UConn and Eastern Connecticut State University.

She married Henry H. Ramm (who predeceased her in 1988) and was a resident of Columbia for more than fifty years, leaving only for a short while to move with Pratt & Whitney to Belgium and then to Manchester.

De was very active in the Town of Columbia. She was one of the founders of the Columbia Cooperative Kindergarten where she also taught for several years before teaching at the Horace Porter School. In addition, De served on the Board of Directors of the Saxton B. Little Library and on the Board of the Columbia Historic Society. She was the first official Town Historian and served in that capacity for many years while building a fine archive of Columbia historical items and documents. With others, De also researched and authored “The Story of Columbia Continues… 1954-1992”.

Henry and De had a family of three sons. Stephen Hewes Ramm, their eldest, lives in Columbia as does their youngest Christopher Hewes Ramm (married to Patrice Bertora Ramm). Son Henry David Ramm lives in Houston (married to Angela Haraka Ramm). De was a terrific grandmother to Todd, Lindsay (husband Elliot Hayden, South Glastonbury), Kyle (wife Marie Welles Ramm, Columbia), Dylan and Marley and was blessed with great grandchildren Grace, Conor and Henry. She also leaves a niece, Nancy Fredericks, and a nephew, Mark Brett. De will be greatly missed by all.

Per her wishes, De will be cremated, and her ashes scattered along side those of her late husband’s. A memorial service will be conducted at a later date in Columbia. The family asks that donations in De’s memory be directed to the Henry H. Ramm Memorial Fund at Saxton B. Little Library in Columbia.
