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.
