So so sorry to hear Ross has passed. He was one of life’s greatest funniest characters. Thinking of you Hilary and family over this very sad time. Lots of love to you all Bruce and Sandy Wsrren Xxxxxxxx
Rosco, it was always a joy to be around you mate....even when you were whinging about something (there was always something!). I will cherish all the fun times in Rotorua including the big brown trout you helped me catch (remember the big one that didn't get away?). There was also the dance-off up at one of the waitakere dams....retrospectively I'll give that one to you on a points decision. You're welcome. Go well mate, your granddaughters loved you so much as did I. See you on the other side. Chris
Ross, you never ever stopped believing in Becks and I and I will be eternally grateful for this. Miss you.
Ross / Dad you will be so dearly missed. Every time I've seen you for the past 20+ years I've said "Hi Dad" and I can hear your voice so clearly responding "hello daughter". I have so many fond memories of you. My first memory is meeting you around 1995 and you sitting on the couch at Jervois St in your full Barkers tracksuit including hat. My favourite memory is when you randomly bought a tractor and then lovingly taught me to drive it. Round and round the washing line I went! Ross I'm so sad that you're gone. But I'm so grateful that you were a part of my life. You were truly one of a kind and you'll always have a special place in my heart. All my love now to Hilary, Steph, Becks, Nick & kids. Rest in peace Dad xoxo
