Description
"The late David A. Ramey captured images of life in Roanoke, many from memory. In images such as this these, he focused on the vibrant Gainsboro neighborhood, much lost to urban renewal efforts of the 1960s. Mr. Ramey's work spans a broad range of subject matter, including scenes from work life at Norfolk Western railroad, his Henry County roots, and inspirational religious drawings."

On loan from the estate of David A. Ramey.
