Dear Janet and Family. My name is Jeannette Smith (nee Olney) Ross and I went to Waimauku Primary school together, my mother said I adored Ross and couldn´t stop talking about him when I started school. I grew up with Vivian and Yvonne. The last time I saw Ross was at a school reunion and my husband and I ended up at your place between functions.
Our sincere condolences for your sad loss of Ross. I hope to make his funeral at Huapai tomorrow. Jeannette

Janet and family both Eileen and I send our deepest condolences to you all. Over the years I have had so many conversations with Ross in business and just an over the fence chat. Some loud and some just shooting the breeze. Both walking away friends.
Always there to help and to give advice, determined in his goals in finishing his day. Always seen putting around the farm with his trusty ford tractor.
His strong determination in (I´m going to die with it not of it) was his catch phrase.
Will miss catching up with you at the ANZAC day parade.
Rest now after a well fought battle.
With respect and love Bill and Eileen Spence.
