    I guess a person shouldn’t have a “favourite” uncle, but Ross was mine. He was a bit shy at times and soft spoken, but always showed in his own way how much he cared. He bought me my first record ( a 45 rpm by Ray Stevens, Guitarzan).
    There has never been a birthday without a card from Uncle Ross. He had the best sense of humour and always made me laugh!
