James Patrick Ramsay

BAILEY ISLAND – James Patrick Ramsay “Jamie” 48 of Bailey Island, passed away November 10, 2019 in Harpswell. He was born January 21, 1971 to Richard F. Ramsay Sr. and Phyllis H. Greeley in Portland.
He graduated in 1990 from Mt. Ararat High School in Topsham. On March 6, 2007 he married Hillary E. Gagne and together they had three sons.
He spent most of his life on the water as a sternman and was known for his dedication and hard work ethic. He enjoyed hunting and camp in his younger years with family and friends, as well as being part of a local bowling league. 
Jamie was a constant at his children’s baseball, basketball, football and cross country events. His boys were his world, just a mention of them would bring a proud smile to his face. A quiet unassuming man with few words who was admired and loved by many. Ever ready and willing to lend a hand when needed. A lover of all animals being of a gentle nature.
