May 9, 2016 – October 23, 2020

Buxton, N.C. – Emma Mae Ramsey, 4, passed away tragically along with her mom Katrina and big sister Zoey, on October 23, 2020, in Buxton, North Carolina. Born in Cleveland, Ohio on May 9, 2016, she is the daughter of Katrina and Harry Ramsey.

Emma “Lou”attended Hatteras Preschool and was a ball of energy, 24/7. She loved to cuddle and eat her tomatoes. She definitely put a smile on your face when in her presence, you just couldn’t help yourself. Her sisters were her buddies. Like her sisters, Bridgett and Zoey, she wore the badge of “Coastie Kid” proudly. She will be missed tremendously by her Daddy and Sissy. She was loved deeply by all her family and many friends she had made, and she loved them back even more.
