Growing up you were always there for me. You made your house feel like home, even though I am sure there were days you wished I would go away. I learned a lot from you and feel my life would have been very different without your influence at my young age. Ross I will always remember you... "Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day" My condolences to Virgina "Ginger", Chas, Lori, Shane and "Little" Ross - Posted by: Crystal (Kitchen) Eames (Daughter's Friend) on: Oct 15, 2012

Dear Uncle I'm sad to see u pass but the memories I have of you are all happy. I will never forget the summers I lived with you or the times we joked around. I will always remember how strong you were. You were a dedicated worker to help keep our hiways safe no matter if you were sick or not you still went to work. I will honor your strength and look for guidance when I need some. No matter what, you always had a positive outlook. You were a wonderful grandfather and father who talked always of how much you loved them. May you rest in peace, your memory will always be in my heart.... - Posted by: donna black (niece) on: Oct 15, 2012
