We were saddened to hear the news about Uncle Ross. I was lucky to have spent time with Uncle Ross, Aunt Muriel, Gerri and Ron in Peterborough when I was a young girl. Quite a trip for a girl from small town Saskatchewan. I have many great memories of those times. We will miss you Uncle Ross. Sincerely, Lori and Dave Watkins

Evelyn, Jim, Ron and Gerri and all extended family, I am so so sorry for your loss. I was so so sad to see that Ross had passed away. Econo Barbershop will greatly miss his gracious giving heart and his ability to make your day feel blessed. Ross has graced the wall of my barbershop with many of his war memorabilia including his photo. I will so miss his visits. Bless you Ross for all who you have touched and thankyou for your service. We will miss you so much. Rest in Peace my friend.

I read with sadness of the passing of my friend Ross Hamilton, I have known Ross & Evelyn since 1994 when I met them at what was then Jacobsen Pontiac. They had brought their car in for repairs at our shop. We spent many times after that taking care of their cars & having good hearted conversations about all aspects of life. The one constant was that on every visit, I could always expect a written witty joke/commentary to be left on my desk that Ross had chosen to brighten my day. We at Bannister Cadillac will miss his cheery attitude.
May your landing be smooth after your long flight home. We will miss you.
On behalf of all the staff @ Bannister Cadillac-Jim Tancek
