Where Heritage and Life are celebrated.

Phyllis Nadine Ramsey

August 31, 1943- November 8, 2021

Phyllis Ramsey, 78, of Prince Frederick, MD passed away on November 8, 2021. She was born August 31, 1943 to Edwin Hightower and Mabel (Stallings) Hightower.  Phyllis grew up in West Beach. This is where she met the love of her life, Page Ramsey. She and Page married in 1959 and moved to Prince Frederick. In 1961 she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, Lisa.

Phyllis had a long career working at Calvert Bank until she retired in 1999. She and Page bought a Harley Davidson motorcycle soon after. She studied hard and got her motorcycle license.  Phyllis loved getting wind therapy and participating in charity poker run fundraisers. During this time she fell in love with a group of guys known as the Maryland Nomads. They all fell in love with her too and she became their adopted Momma. Another passion of hers was volunteering at the Calvert Pines. She loved helping her seniors everyday.  While being there she gained so many friends, which she called “My Girls”. They would get together each week for breakfast or lunch. But through it all her partner in crime was Mary Fink. They would drive each other to their appointments, luncheons, or just to get out for a ride.

Phyllis is proceeded in death by her parents, her brothers Freddie and Douglas Hightower, her husband Page Ramsey and niece Shari Hightower Russell.

She is survived by her daughter Lisa Meyers and her husband Les, Jr.,  Grandchildren Morgan Meyers and her husband  Justin, Trent Meyers, Amanda Bearns and her husband Chucky, Great Grandson Charlie Bearns, Cousin Barbara Ann, and her many Cabbage Patch kids.

Following the service, the family will be holding a Celebration of Life at the Calvert County Fairgrounds, 140 Calvert Fair Drive, Prince Frederick, MD 20678.

    Lisa & Family: I am so sorry to learn of your mother’s passing. We worked together when she worked for Prince George’s County Public Schools in the late 70’s and early 80’s. We stayed in touch for several years after but I haven’t seen or talked to her for about 20 years. Phyllis was so much fun to work with – we had lots of good times in the Accounting Office. The wonderful memories of such a sweet lady will remain in your hearts forever and I know you are going to miss her dearly.
    Take Care.

    Lisa and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Phyllis was the one responsible for me working at PGCPS in 1973. We even rode together for a few years and she was the funniest and most sincere person on earth. Of course she was a great friend to Mom and Dad, and they enjoyed many good tunes together. They will always be the real “Clay Hammond Rd Bunch”, and will be missed beyond words. I know that Paige was waiting at the gates of heaven to welcome her to an eternity of love
