Edward W. Ross, Jr. passed away on February 5th, 2019 at the ripe age of 93. He was a gentle, humble, brilliant, witty man with a loving family surrounding him. He spent much of his life as a resident of Sudbury, MA, and later of Eastham, MA. Ed participated in many sports, loved mathematics, bridge, lobster, history, and cheering on the Red Sox and Patriots. He was an active member of the Methodist church in both Sudbury and Orleans. He raised 5 children with thankful hearts, and loved his wife, Nancy, more than anything. His family plans to honor his memory with an event later this year. For his last year and a half he was a resident of The Terraces nursing home in Orleans, MA. The staff there was like a family to Ed and his wife Nancy. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages donations to the Orleans Convalescent Home Education Fund (checks can be made out to “OCH Ed Fund”), c/o The Terraces, 60 Daley Terrace, Orleans, MA 02653.
