Just wanted to say how very saddened I was to read of Mr. Ramaut’s passing. Rich is the man who pursues a wealthy and lucrative career. Wealthy and rewarded many times over, is the Man that chooses to give back, to work with children in the classroom and on the field of play. 71 was to young, for such a kind and giving man. I guess we can all take solace in knowing that he and young Kieth are together once again. Sincerely, Darryl McIntyre (former student ‘86) 

Beverly and Lesley,
I just found out that Brian has passed away.  I feel like I have lost a member of my own family.  I felt the same way when my wonderful student Keith died years ago.  You have been so very dear to me for so many years.  If there is anything that I can do for you, please let me know.  I love both of you.

Calvin M. Phillips

Thoughts and prayers are with all of you today.  The memorial service will be such a highlight of Brian's life.  He truly loved his family and adored his grandchildren.  He loved to talk about his teaching years and all of his students.  He instill these qualities with his young grandchildren.  He will be missed.  You will always have wonderful memories to get close to your hearts.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. Both of my daughters were lucky enough to have Mr. Ramaut as their teacher. My oldest daughter was best friends with Lesley and when they were in high school Mr. Ramaut and his wife took both girls to Florida for a week. Needless to say when he brought them home he had a lot more gray hair. He was such a good, kind, caring man. Heaven has just received a new angel.  My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.

Mr. Ramaut wore many hats in our lives.  He was a teacher to my daughters, he was their softball coach at Page, and we attended many events at the  high school level as parents of Lamphere students.  Brian and I were also colleagues as staff members of Lamphere and then years later we worked at Red Oaks Golf Course together.  But more than all these things we became good friends.  Brian took me to my first Tiger's Opening Day at Tiger Stadium, which became an annual event for some of us.  And now, I share that with my own family.  Brian will be missed by many people and never forgotten for his kindness and big heart.  The Belmont Girls... Debbie, Denise, Debbie, & Kathy Jo

Sending thoughts and prayers of comfort to the Ramaut Family in this difficult time. Although I did not have the privilege of knowing  Mr. Ramaut, I feel that I had a small glimpse of the wonderful man he was by seeing him through his beautiful daughter, and my dear friend, Lesley. Please know that The Ray Family is praying for peace and comfort for that surpasses all understanding for all those affected.

He was a great teacher.. I was only a fifth grader at the time but he would ask us to spell things.. I remember one day he asked if anyone could spell encyclopedia. I raised my hand (normally I was too shy to do so) but this time I was the only person in the class with my hand up. He called on me I spelled it. He asked me to pick one blow pop sucker.. I went to grab one and he dropped them all on my desk. He said I did good and I earned all of them- it was such a small thing that still stands out in my mind. I'm 29 now.. He had away of making you feel special.. And I know with me he helped me with my confidence. I will be forever grateful. Heaven got another angel this week. Your husband was a great man

My deepest condolences to the family of Mr. Ramaut. You were the best teacher I ever had. You taught me to never give up on my dreams. You taught us about the world and that kindness and integrity was so important in becoming the person you wanted to become.You will be deeply missed. RIP Mr. Ramaut, you will never be forgotten. God's Blessings to the Ramaut Family

I first met Brian while selling tickets for one of the never ending Lamphere Schools fundraising events.  This was long after he had retired from teaching.   I lost count, long ago, at how many different events he attended/supported.  He was generous to a fault and a kind and gracious man.  I am very sorry for your loss, but may you be comforted by the wonderful memories that you and your family have.  Terry Clavier

Brian was an excellent teacher; one who cared very much about his students and their achievement. He was a role model for his students. He influenced many young lives in a very positive manner. It was a pleasure to have him on the staff at Edmonson School. May God bless his family with peace that comes from knowing that he has left behind a positive contribution in this world.

Brian was a DSL classmate. A true gentleman in life. His wit will be missed at the DLS Class of 61' lunches. My condolences..Art Peters

Bev,
Brian was a great friend to many people.  He touched and shaped many young peoples lives with his ability to teach and make learning fun.  I really appreciated his support for the DARE program when I started teaching it at Edmondson.  I am proud to have worked with him and to have had him as a friend.  I know that Brian is now able to enjoy hunting with Keith again.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
