May the family of boss find a minute to smile in the sweet memories of their time with boss Ross. Mike introduced Mike and I, vikki, oh so many years ago, but boss stayed in our hearts and memories. That was the way he left anyone who had the pleasure of meeting him. May you find peace among your sorrow.

Praying for all family and friends of Uncle Troy. He had endured a long struggle but never gave up and still had a good time cruising in his wheelchair apparently from what I gather from other postings. Like Aunt Minnie he had that infectious laugh and ability to put people at ease. I am glad they are reunited and now looking down over us though I had not anticipated that it woud be this soon! Heaven is a brighter place with his passing and we rejoice in that he will be in the presence of GOD but mourn for the loss of his presence in our lives, Though I didnt see him often I kept up with his antics. My daddy loved hom so much and I ask especially that you pray for him and all the remaining siblings as well as all the children he has left and other lives he has influenced. Partying is going on up there as the welcome his beautiful spirit and as we bury his physical body here! RIP Uncle Troy!
