ROSS: Lisa of Lambton Shores, formerly of Mississauga

In Loving Memory of Lisa Ross

On Tuesday, November 3, 2026, Lisa Ross passed away suddenly at the age of 64.

Mother of Heidi and Johnny (Ashley), and Nana to Grayson, Neve, Dane, Jude, Makaylah, Megan, and Jacob. She was the sister of Donny, Ted, Joanne, and Lawrence, and the late Kenny. Lisa was predeceased by her parents, Donald and Helen (Britton) Ross.

Lisa was a spirited, intelligent, and creative woman with a meticulous eye and a strong, independent nature. She lived a very modest life, finding meaning in creativity, nature, animals, and the people she loved. She enjoyed making beautiful handmade crafts to give to her grandchildren and friends, and which she sold at local markets. Especially in her final years, she dreamed of a quieter life on the land, tending a garden and growing natural, wholesome food.

Lisa’s journey through life came with many challenges. She navigated personal struggles and the weight of circumstances that spanned generations, facing many obstacles from a young age. Throughout the ups and downs, she continued to strive for wellness, meeting her circumstances with resilience and a spirit that endures in her children and grandchildren. She had a way of finding humour even in the darkest moments, a worldview and strength that was uniquely her own.

One of Lisa’s most meaningful acts of love was the care and dedication she gave to her Father in his later years, taking full responsibility for his care until his passing. It was a reflection of the love she carried for her family, even through her own difficulties. She leaves behind many memories, and a presence that will not be forgotten. She is deeply missed and lovingly remembered by her family.
