Tom Ramsey, far left, a son of the late William W. “Bill” Ramsey, and others stand near a sign unveiled Friday at U.S. 61 North and Mississippi 465. A stretch of 465 between 61 and the Issaquena County line bears Ramsey’s name due to a bill passed by the Mississippi Legislature during the 2009 regular session. Ramsey, an attorney and former state representative, died in 2003. He had four sons and was an avid outdoorsman with property in the Eagle Lake community. Standing with Ramsey are, from left, Anders Ferrington, Dorsey Carson and Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace. (Katie Carter*The Vicksburg Post)
