Elaine, we have just heard the very sad news of Ross' passing and we are so sorry. I will always remember our get-togethers and fun we had when you and I worked together at the CIBC. Ross was always a great guy and didn't deserve the ill health he suffered in the past few years.
Mike and I send our sincere sympathy to you and your family. Janet and Mike Parker.

Dear Elaine and Family...
I was so saddened to hear the news of Ross' passing. It was a joy to get to know him for the short time I spent at your home. I always looked forward to his talks and how he lit up when he talked about growing up on the family farm. He was a lovely person and will be missed by everyone who had the opportunity to get to know him. My thoughts are with you, Elaine, and your family at this most difficult time. Wishing you the love and support of your family and friends and the strength to carry on.
