Through the succeeding years he attained a reputation of national pro- portions in the fields of engineering, industry, education, and philanthropy. Mr. Ramsay never forgot his home community. It has been said of him that he greatly loves his native state of Pennsylvania and ardently reveres its traditions, its memories, and its people. His generous contributions to public education in Mount Pleasant, through which he has touched the lives of hundreds of young people, are substan- tial evidence of his interest in his home town. His concern for the students of Ramsay High School, shown in his frequent visits, and his many contacts in this community have endeared him to the people of Mount Pleasant. The senior class of Ramsay High School is pleased to honor a son of Mount Pleasant by dedicating the 1942 edition of The Mountyv to Erskine Ramsay, citizen of Alabama, friend of Mount Pleasant.
