Besides his loving wife Linda, Ross is survived by his daughter Angie (John) Fehr, son Cody, his grandkids whom he loved very much; Kaci (Ashton) Dalton, Taya Fehr, Tysen (Emma) Fehr, and Cydni Dalton, his brother Tom (Connie) Dalton and his many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Ross or Rosco to some was born on January 20, 1956 in Edmonton and raised in Vauxhall by his grandparents, Owen & Cora Dalton. Ross and Linda were high school sweethearts, marrying each other on an Oklahoma adventure with a group of their closest friends on December 7, 1979. In September 1980, they welcomed their first child Angie, with Cody following in April 1984. Together, they lived in Taber for many years, making the move to Lethbridge in 2005. Ross enjoyed the many holidays and events with his children but most of all his grandkids, he was quick to joke (usually a dad joke), prank (his favourite being a game of 52 pick up), and sharing all of his extensive knowledge with them. Ross has left a large hole in many hearts and he will be forever missed.

As per Ross’ request, no funeral will be held.
