Ross Ned Johnson

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Ross was a great guy, taking extra care to shoe our special horse friends. His kind and gentle spirit will be missed.

I am so shocked and saddened. Ross and I started at Dakota State together playing football. As cowboys we soon became best friends. I went to High School with Vera. As time passes we went out separate ways and last we had met was in Alliance as I was living in Pine Ridge. I moved to New Mexico and we lost track of each other. Vera if you get this in time I would love to come to the service. My # is 605 593 6078. I live in Rapid City. Still in disbelief.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Vera Jean... I´m sending you and your family so much love. I´m so very sorry. You´ve all been blessed with so many loving memories.

Sending lots of prayers to Vera and the family. Brought a ton of memories flooding in from our times team roping at the Circle R and Alliance. That is one of the blessings our lord graces us with, our memories ...

A friend gone to soon.
The times we shared in and out of the arena with him and his family will always be a part of us going forward.
Rest in Peace my Friend

Ross and Vera had their barn/acerage north of my parents house, a lot of my childhood was spent walking thru the pasture to the barn to watch Ross trim and shoe horses. As I got older we would go riding north of his barn and around the nearby pivots. Ross would keep and eye out for the geese and when they were flying over so I could sit up at the barn in the mornings/afternoons to shoot at them. Thank you for all the memories Ross. I´m so thankful for our savior Jesus Christ. I look forward to seeing you in heaven someday Ross.

Had some great memories with Ross when Dad Burr and Doug and Tom and Rick and Monte all traveled to the rodeo´s together!!!It was a lot of fun back in the day.Rest in peace . Monte Jamison

I had two favorite teachers in my life, one being Ross the other being Vera. Ross (Mr . Johnson to me growing up) was an awesome teacher and neighbor. He was one of the nicest people you could meet, always a smile on his face, and a great sense of humor. My deepest sympathies go out to Vera, Jaimi, and Brittnay.

I remember Ross several different ways.. His big mustache,smile and humor.. I also remember patching his horse trailer tire that had 13 nails and pieces of wire in it.. (most ever for me). Ross made a difference in our Alliance community... Ride on Cowboy!!

Ross is one of the best men I have ever known, I will miss him until we meet again my friend. My deepest condolences to Vera and all of the Family

We thought the world of Ross, great memories. RIP Cowboy!

Our warmest regards and love to all. Jim and Penny Furman

Remembering you and family with deepest sympathies in the loss of Ross..........

Holding you all in prayer. Ross touched so many lives for good and has many friends in Alliance. We are so sorry for this loss and grateful he was surrounded by family.

Ross was a bright spot in the sometimes miserable days of wrestling practice- providing a smile and careful guidance to a kid that needed exactly that at the right time. Even after that whenever I encountered him he was positive, friendly, and had the right thing to say, providing help, jokes, and warmth whenever needed. He will be missed for sure.

We were sad to hear about Ross. He touched so many lives. Prayers for you Vera and family. Mary Schadwinkel

So sorry! Prayers
Such a great memories!!!
