I am so very sorry to just now learning Ross passed away. I sat down to send him a message through FB and learned of his passing. Ross and I share a legacy together of living down at Big Lake in Illinois. A few years back he sent me photographs of when he lived down there and I am so grateful for those and of the time I got to meet him at a family reunion. I am so sorry and my deepest condolences to his family.

Dianne and family, I am so very sorry to hear about Ross's passing. I will miss seeing and talking to him when I am on the mail route. It was always a pleasant surprise to find that Ross had left me a bottle of bar-be-que sauce in the mailbox. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
