Ben graduated from L.D. Bell High School in 2011 and was known for his sense of humor and by being the first person to take the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile to their Senior prom. Ben was preceded in death by his mother, Jill Hubbell Ross and his grandmother, Emily Jane "Nano" Hubbell. He is survived by his dad, Mike Ross, stepmother, Tish Ross; stepbrother, Tristyn Young; stepsister, Caroline Young; grandmothers, Wanda Sargent and Silva Ross; grandfathers, Bobby Hubbell and George Ross; aunts, Julie Hubbell Bowmer, Jennifer Ross, and Sonia Deleon; and uncles, Scott Ross and Andy Bowmer; as well as three nieces and two nephews.

Bobby, Jill and Andy. Im at a loss for something to say that would even begin to tell you how I feel. I can say, my heart breaks for you guys. I cant imagine the sadness you are feeling. Praying the sadness will lessen with time, the wonderful memories of Ben will take over and some even make you smile again. Please know you all are loved and if you ever just want to talk, Im here for you.

Ben, I know you never got over the pain of losing your Mom, who loved your more than anything in this whole world, and I find comfort knowing that your in heaven with Jesus, your Mom, Nano, and Jessica. I'm looking forward to seeing you all again someday, but until that day, I will miss you forever and wish I could have hugged you one more time.
I love you sweet boy,
Aunt Julie
