Ross Woodley Obituary

WOODLEY, Ross Brian - It is with profound sadness Janine announces the peaceful passing of her cherished husband Ross. Devoted and loving father of Drew and Vanessa Pearcey, and Taylor Pearcey. Proud Papa of Walker and Little Rossco. Predeceased by his parents and his sister Carol. Ross was born on August 1, 1949. His love of hockey earned him a scholarship to Denver University where he forged lifelong friendships and happy memories. His proudest moments include being signed by the Detroit Red Wings in 1972 and working and playing with Labatt Breweries. Ross always had a smile, was hospitable and had a positive attitude until the end. His outgoing, friendly nature will be missed by so many cherished friends and family. Janine is so grateful to Rick, Les, Sue and Frank for their unwavering support throughout Ross' illness. The family will receive their friends at the Egan Funeral Home, 203 Queen St. S. (Hwy. 50), Bolton (905-857-2213) Tuesday, October 19 from 3 o'clock until time of memorial service in the chapel at 4 o'clock.

Dear Janine: I can honestly say that Ross was the most personable & friendly man I have ever met. I will never forget his "Standy By Me" dance routine!

Dear Janine, I was very saddened to hear of Ross's passing. My parents, Donn and Bernice, and my brother Matthew, all part of the extended Labbat "family" (and all deceased now) thought very highly of him. Please accept my sincere condolences to you and your family.

Dear Janine, Woodley family and friends,
I have only just heard about Ross passing. Having been out of touch over the past few years I was not aware he was unwell.
He was a wonderful lifelong friend and he will be missed by all he touched.
Woody - rest in peace my friend.
Kindest regards
