Juanita Hazel Ramey Bryant, 77, of Ranger went to be with the Lord on February 22, 2016 after a long illness. She was born December 11, 1938 at Ranger, WV, a daughter of the late Virgil and Inez Sias Ramey.

Juanita was respected and loved throughout her community with a great love for the Lord and dedicated to her church, when she was in better health. She will be missed.
