To the Ross Family: Thank you for sharing your angel with us. David's smile was as bright as a star and he shined his light in many dark places. When I asked him what he did best, he took a moment and said, " What I do best is I take people whose families & friends had given up on them and I believe in them. He said it only takes one person to believe in them and it inspired them to change their life, that's what I do best". If they need food or shelter he went over and beyond to help them, sometimes at his own detriment. David was a very special friend to me and I'm gonna miss our long conversations & time spent together. I know I will see u when I get there, but until then I'll Be Missing U My Friend....Eternally Renaee

Crossing the Bar
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.
By Alfred, Lord Tennyson

David Ross who I met 19 years ago. He has always been kind-hearted always with a smile and I am so sorry that he has left us. I will always remember him and his smile and I know he is resting in peace.

To the Ross Family and Friends,
Words can not express the sorrow of the loss of such a gentleman. In the many years of knowing David his personality has never changed. He would always call me his sis whenever we seen each other or talked. Honored that he was part of our lives. May the Love of family and friends give you comfort, and the Love of God give you the peace in your time of need. My deepest sympathies and condolences. My love and prayers are with you. Nee-Nee
