As a father he has guided his children to the best of his ability and has always been The " Rock " and the constant in their lives regardless of what life has thrown at them. He never hesitated to help someone in need, whether family, friend or stranger. Ross touched the lives of everyone he met. He leaves behind a legacy that we proudly embrace and are blessed to have shared. Pop will be greatly missed but will always be with us in spirit as he continues to guide us through our challenges as well as smile upon us as we go through this journey called life.

Memories For This Unit

Other Memories
Although used as an ammo ship she was still designated as (AKA-58). Transferred to Chara from duty aboard Merapi. Very short tour. We sailed up the weat coast to Astoria Oregon where she was decommisioned in the spring of 1959. I was surprised a few years later when as a company commander at RTC San Diego I sent a few of my recruits to the USS Chara (AE-31)
