Dear Ribey family,

Sorry to hear of your loss. I send my deepest condolences.

Joyce and Family – Char and I were totally shocked to hear of this tragic news! Thankfully, I had a long conversation with Ross just before we left for Arizona, and he seemed to be in fine form! What a loss for you and your family! I have never met a more honest, genuine character than Ross, and he was a good, long-term friend! I will miss his hearty laugh, and his take-no-prisoners attitude. What a refreshing breath of fresh air in a world of politically correct nonsense! I will long remember his true dedication to his family which always came first, and to his client families that he felt so privileged to serve. Take care! CHARLANNE AND KENT

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Sincerest sympathies, Boz, Mary and Andy Learn

My deepest condolences in the loss of such a great man. Although I have now moved to Exeter, I will always remember living just a few houses down from Ross and yelling howdy neighbour back and forth almost every day. The past year I was fortunate to work with Ross on the Seaforth Agricultural Society&&single&&s board of directors. His commitment to the families and the community as a whole is evident. His imprint on Seaforth and surrounding communities will not soon be forgotten. Ross: your candle is burnt out long before your legend ever will.

Unfortunately, we will not be able to attend the services for Ross. We would like to take this opportunity to send each member of the family our deepest sympathy. He was a really good person who I know did a lot of wonderful things for the community. Fortunately, I had the opportunity to talk to Ross just two weeks ago while up in Seaforth. I will never forget the kindness that Ross showed to our family at the time of Mom&&single&&s death. He even drove all night to Lion&&single&&s Head to pick her up. Never a complaint. I remember him saying to me “I wanted to do this for Betty.” Every person who ever met Ross will miss him. Sincerely, Bill and Angela MacLean

Dear Ribey family,

Sorry to hear of your loss. Ross was a good man, I&&single&&ll always remember when I was a kid, his speedy in and out while he shopped at the store. I send my deepest condolences.

Joyce and family,
I was shocked to receive notification from Bob Amos today of the death of Ross. As a classmate at the Canadian School of Embalming I appreciated Ross&&single&& wit and commentary on life both on and off the U.of T. campus. Apart from a chance meeting at the Blythe Festival several years ago, we saw each other only at continuing education every five years. In his calling of Funeral Director Ross made a positive impact on thousands of lives. He will be missed. I was pleased to read that Mary Fletcher will be conducting the funeral service. Mary came from our church, Central United in Sarnia. We know her as a warm and compassionate person so have confidence in her ability to assist your family at this difficult time. Regrettably we will be unable to attend visitation or the funeral as Cheryl and I are in Florida. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all as you begin your journey through grief.

Dear Joyce & Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. My heartfelt condolences go out to all of you. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Ross was a wonderful man!!

We always loved chatting to Ross when in Seaforth. An awesome guy. We wish to express our condolences to the entire family. Keith, Cindy and families.

Joyce,Andrea,Brad,Brent and Cheryl. Our deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. Ross was a very thoughtful and caring man. Helping our family through two very difficult times with Dad and Keira, we couldnt have asked for anyone better to guide us through our greatest time of need. A heart of gold stopped beating, two willing hands at rest. God breaks our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Gayle,Kim,Stacey and Chris

Thinking of your family at this sad time. May your good memories help to comfort you all.

Joyce, Andrea, Brad, Brent and Cheryl;
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all. Ross will be deeply missed by everyone who knew him.

As I sit here tonight I am still in shock that Ross is gone. Joyce, Andrea, Brad, Brent, Cheryl, Pat, Brooke and Tyler you were all so blessed to have Ross in your lives. He always had a funny joke to tell or a story to share. Involved in so many different community events, I think he belonged to just about every service group in Seaforth and surrounding area yet he still found time to stop and chat, ask how my family was doing etc. I will miss delivering flowers and Ross being dressed for a service and his shirt untucked. I am so sorry for your loss and over the past couple days with everyone dropping off food, flowers and rememberances you can see how much you are all loved by the community. So if you ever need something just ask we are all here to lend a hand, shoulder or a hug whatever you need ! Thinking of you all

Ross was the heart & soul of our community in many ways. His humor and wisdom has made us richer in our own lives. A character man who showed so much compassion and understanding, always taking the time for everyone. The countless hours of volunteering and support he gave were endless. He was always thinking of how to make Seaforth & Area a better place to live and be a part of.

To Ruth We know you will miss Ross, not as just a co-worker, but a friend. He would be very proud of the way you carried on that day.

Deepest Sympathy to All of You
