About Jerry Ramos

Jerry Ramos for Hall County Sheriff Family

Family

I was born to Puerto Rican / Spaniard parents that moved from the island of Puerto Rico to the mainland during the "Great Migration".

My wife and I have been married for over (28) years, she is a NE Georgia native and the pillar for our blended family. We are blessed with (8) children and (15) grandchildren.

Untold Story

I grew up in an economically disadvantaged environment with little to nothing and the family spent our early years dependent mostly on nutritional outreach programs, government financial aid, and public housing riddled with crime as well as drugs.

Fortunately, exposure to my childhood challenges and concurrent life's setbacks have provided me with the determination along with the drive to work hard to self-develop and achieve my goals to better serve God, Family, Country, and Community!

My wife and I are honored to be members of Northside Church. Our commitment to civic duty and community service led us to co-found Civic Guardians of NE Georgia, Inc., a grassroots, faith-driven nonprofit organization based in Hall County. This organization is committed to enhancing public safety and promoting community engagement. Our initiatives with Civic Guardians have made a meaningful impact on our community.
