A beloved son, brother and friend, Ross also leaves behind brothers and sisters of the IBEW Local 82, whom he worked with as an electrician. Ross was a friend to many who will continue to cherish their memories of him. All who met Ross knew he had a gift in making people happy and smile, especially children, teaching many as a Kung Fu instructor, himself a red-black belt. His infectious laugh and love of all things active eluded to the fact he was a kid at heart. And his heart, the best part of all, so kind, innocent, and always loving, fully and unconditionally.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. If desired please feel free to bring a helium balloon, with or without message, for release following Mass.
