He is survived by his loving wife Bertha, son Russell (Lynn), grandson Kristjan and granddaughter Kristine (my darling Clementine) of Ottawa, his son Walter or Wally as he is called who called every morning to check on his parents, his sister-in-law Mary and her four children. Ross was in the military and served from 1942 to 1946 with the Queen's Own Camerons as a motorcycle dispatcher in England, Belgium, Germany and France. Ross was very proud of his military service. Ross worked for Canada Post for 27 years and belonged to Legion 141. In compliance with Ross's wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be no formal funeral service. The ashes will be interred at Glen Eden Cemetery at a later date. Thank you to Dr. Doermer for all the care, the firefighters and paramedics and the wonderful staff on the 3rd floor at Concordia Hospital. Flowers are gratefully declined.
