EMMA JEAN "VICKI" ROSS Ph.D.

I just learned of Aunt Vicki's passing today. I am so sorry for your loss. I am so glad I got to see her at World Conference in June this year. She was a loving and caring person. I will always have fond memories of the McVicker family reunion when she and Uncle Don took us all by bus to Niagara Falls and Kirtland Temple. That was a special trip. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love, Donna Garrett English

Vicky was one of my favorite people. She made me feel better being around her. She was generous with her time, her money and her love. May her memory continue to spread love from you Janet, Joel, Steve, and Julie and your families.

May the Peace that passes all understanding be with and upon you and your families as you celebrate the life of an outstanding woman.

Our family sends their condolences on the passing of Vicki Ross. We will always remember her contribution through Zions League and many other avenues.

Jan, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Your mom was a wonderful lady. She was always so kind to me when I was there for a visit. The Lord has a new angel in heaven today.

Love you Vicki!
You are rejoicing in the Lord now!

To the Ross family, I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. She was such a mainstay in our lives as kids, the neighborhood mom who was always there for us with a smile. She was loved and will always live in our hearts.

Dear Ross Family, I am so sorry for your loss. Although I have not seen your mom for probably 50 years, I remember her fondly. She hosted the most wonderful Halloween parties for the girl scout troop. Based on the accomplishments of her life, her hostess abilities might seem trivial but as a child I thought she was wonderful and obviously many other children felt the same way.

What a blessing she was to all. Remembering with fondness-laughter and tears shared together. Most of all gratitude for the prayerful, spiritual life she lived.Holding all of the family in our hearts and prayers. Ray and Ruthie Campbell

Dear Family.... I am so sorry for your loss. My interactions with Vicki were always so pleasant. I'm sure she will be dearly missed by all those who knew and loved her.

So very sorry to hear of your loss. She was a truly great lady. May your faith bring you the greatest comfort at this time.

I am so sorry for your loss Ross family. She was a great woman and will be greatly missed.

Cherished memories when Don and Vickie directed A youth camp at Temple Grove. a long long time ago. A camper from the past now a pastor of a congregation I am sorry for your loss.

Dear Ross Family, We are very sorry for your loss. remembering the times we spent together at church and Temple Grove, enjoyed her smile and her thoughts. May God continually bless your family and our prayers are with you always. In Christian love Jeff, Betty Rae Smith and family.

Steve, Joel, Jon, and all the family - I was saddened to read this today at work. I greatly appreciated the spirit I sensed in your Mom in the various dinners and celebrations I attended over my five years here at UEC. It is wonderful to know that we don't grieve as those who have no hope, though that doesn't mean we don't grieve at all. I will be praying comfort for you and your family in this time. May God's precious Spirit rest on each of you as you go through this season. God bless each of you.

Dear Ross Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Our hearts are filled with sadness and tears, but our memories of your mother are filled with love, joy, and happiness. I feel so blessed to have known your mom! She was the kindness, most loving, inspirational person I have ever met!!! My children were so lucky to have had her as their pre-school teacher. It was the most positive and loving introduction to school for them. I will miss her dearly!! Wishing you love, peace and comfort during this difficult time. With Love, Chris, Hallie and David Belasco

The first time I met Vicki was at a Camp Bountiful women's retreat at which she was the guest minister. I believe it was in the '70's! I was so inspired by her ministry that I sketched a picture of her during a presentation. I learned a lot from her at that retreat! In the '80's and '90's my late husband and I worked at Deerhaven Camp in Florida in Elderhostel programs, where we became good friends with Fred and Shirley Finger (Kathy Ross's parents). We got to know both Kathy and Joel and were recipients of their ministry at the Deerhaven congregation. What a very giving, caring family! My prayers will be with your entire family as you grieve the loss of this wonderful lady!

Vicki gave and gave. When I needed a listening ear in my troubled twenties, she gave. When we needed loving guidance for our preschool children, she gave. When we found a charitable cause to support, she joined our cause. She was a pillar of support, patience, loving guidance, and friendship throughout all the time I was privileged to know her.

So very sad to hear of the passing of Vicki. A wonderful lady that will be missed. She leaves behind such a great family to carry on her generous and loving ways. God has welcomed her with open arms.

Heartfelt condolences from your church family in Greenwood. Vicki's life was a model for us all. We join you in missing her and look forward to the time when we will be reunited.

Sorry for your loss. Praying for your family.

From the Akron Barberton Community of Christmas we send heartfelt thoughts as we remember and celebrate the gift of your mother and grandmother as she touched and ministered to each of us. Thank you for sharing her with us.

Sure was shocked to hear this. Vicki was a great friend and will be greatly missed. We aren't able to be at the service in person, but will be there in spirit. Praying that you all have peace and comfort at this sorrowful time. Sending hugs and love.
