Ramona Pease
Obituary
Ramona Jane (Smith) Pease passed away on May 9, 2019, in
Newton. She was born in Argonia to Luther and Dorothy (Six) Smith. She was
raised in the Sedgwick area and attended Sedgwick schools. She met and married
the love of her life, Duane L. Pease.
Ramona loved to crochet, read, bake and cook (family
favorites were her meatloaf, brownies and chocolate dream whip pie). She
enjoyed family camping and vacation trips, yet her great joy was going on
drives with Duane wearing matching shirts and hats, with her vanilla Diet
Pepsi, enjoying the countryside.
She is survived by her husband of 61 years, Duane; children,
Marilyn Swanson (Terry) of Arkansas City and Bruce Pease Sr. of Walton;
grandchildren: Duane, Misty, Darcy, Bruce Jr. (Janet) and Cynthia Wilson
(Mark); eight great-grandchildren; siblings: Bud Smith, Janice Owens (Dean) of
Whipporwill, Oklahoma, Ruth Murphy (Glenn) of Newton, Mary Steele of Emporia
and Johnny Smith of Oklahoma City; and many other relatives and friends.
She is preceded in death by her parents; sisters, Judy May
Smith and Donna Lee McCuellon; and grandson, Roger Jacob Pease.
Services will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday, June 8, 2019, at
the Columbus Avenue Church of Christ, Newton.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be designated in her
memory to Walton Rural Life Center, 500 Main St., Walton, KS 67151. Condolences
