Ramsey, Robert E.

Robert Ramsey was born in the state of Pennsylvania, and moved with his family to Arizona as a child in 1926. He was raised in Sacaton, on the Pima Indian Reservation, just south of Phoenix. His parents spent 38 years working among the Indians of North America. Ramsey's years of growing up in Sacaton fueled his interest in the Indians. He served three years with the Navy Seabees, almost two of those in the Mediterranean-European Theater of operations during World War II. After his duty with the Navy, Ramsey moved to Yuma, Arizona and began a 45-year career in the lumber business. Now retired, he has found pleasure in writing. Residing in Yuma with his wife Nancy, they have four grown children, ten grandchildren, and one great-grandson.
