Subject: [DragNet] Wng O: Funeral Services and In Memoriam General Ramsey
M.Withers 9-10 January 2015
Dragoons and Friends ,
The following is the text of the known details of the Visitation and Funeral
arrangements for General Ramsey M. Withers as advised by the Colonel
Commandant of the Communications and Electronics Branch.
Colleagues,
The current information indicates that the Withers family will plan for a
Visitation 9 January 2015, 1700-2100 hrs and 1100-1300 hrs and for 10
January a Service Celebration of Life 1300-1400 hrs and Internment at 1400
hrs. I believe this will all be at Beechwood Military Cemetery.
The family requests that the military be involved in the service ,
particularly the Celebration of Life. Individuals who can contribute to
this Celebration of Life with stories and or photos are requested to advise
me and I can coordinate with the OPI. I have already received some
anecdotes from colleagues (Webber, Simpson. Leech, Arnold, etc). I request
more. The Military C&E Museum will also be asked to assist.
More detail to follow when available.
Bill
