Stephen Ross Obituary
Stephen L. Ross, a 40 year resident of Tequesta, died June 20, 2019. He was a well respected member of the Title Insurance community since 1973, a graduate of Deland High School and a graduate of the University of Alabama,Tuscaloosa.
Steve and Joyce, his wife of 46 years, were the proud parents of daughters Glory and Joy and the adoring grandparents of five cherished grandchildren. Oh, how Steve loved his family. He was always the devoted, supportive and encouraging father and grandfather.
He enjoyed traveling, listening to music, playing a mean air guitar at his daughters' weddings, and especially woodcarving (ducks) in his garage while watching football on tv (Roll Tide).
He is survived by his immediate family (including sons-in-law David and Paul), sister Diane (Jerry), brother Tim (Katherine) and seven nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Helen and Harry, and his sister Nancy.
Although we have lost a truly wonderful member of our family, we were so very fortunate to have been part of his life and ever grateful that he was part of ours.
Memorial Service, Thursday, June 27 at 11:00AM, Church of the Good Shepherd, 400 Seabrook Rd, Tequesta, FL.

Oh my God! I just found about this! Steve was one of best friends of all time
I met him at the National Music Camp in Michigan where we were both high school boy’s counselors in 1968 and 1969. We lost contact with each other, then were reunited in Florida.
Over the years we would often visit each other. Steve was the greatest, most sincere man and friend I have ever known.
It’s so heartbreaking to hear he has passed...I’m simply devastated.
We hadn’t gotten together for some time, so I decided to get back in touch.
I’m sending out my condolences to all of his family. No finer man ever walked this earth!
God Bless You Bama!

Can't believe it's been a year! So many times when I run into a search I can't find, I think of you. You'll miss your trip North again. I don't know how your wife and family are doing, no updates. You are missed, for your knowledge as well as your person. RIP Steve.

Steve I remember when we were at first American and you needed to take your walks to get air, around the circle after talking to an agent. you will truly be missed, I also remember you doing push ups and pull and lat downs you were an incredible great man and I can only Imagine how great of a father, grandfather, husband, brother and uncle you were. Now you are looking up in the sky in a great place. it was a pleasure working with you Stephen Ross

What I am feeling right now is hard to put into words. Steve was my friend and mentor when I moved to Florida to work for Commonwealth. We would laugh about his annual trip to the "North". I will cherish the one picture I have from one of his trips.
He was so proud of his "girls", and then his grandchildren. When he went to another title company, we still remained friends and kept in touch. I will miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with his wonderful family on this sad occasion.

This news makes me sad. Steve was my go-to examiner for many years; he was so knowledgeable and helpful Our last conversation was about retirement and he was looking forward to being able to kick back and enjoy family, friends and hobbies. I'm sorry his retirement didn't last as long as he deserved. I will remember him with much fondness. Good memories are the best legacies. I wish peace for he Ross family.
