Sorry for your lost.

Mark, Christie, Camile & Sally Ann @ Stegall Insurance Agency

My deepest condolences to the family! Mr Raymond was like a grandfather to me. He lived across the street from where I grew up and he was a blessing to have as a neighbor. There's nothing he wouldn't do to help his family and friends. God blessed him with a wonderful long life. Rest in the sweet memories of him! Loving thoughts from Lulu Franklin Wimbush!!

My deepest condolences to the family! My fondest memories of him was to look up and see him pulling into my driveway anytime for a visit, with his grandson Gerrard.

J.R. Estes and family.

To the Ross family: I've known you all my entire life and you've become a part of my family. Mr. Raymond will be missed by us. Pap and Willie Mae

I am grateful to have been brought up by both of my grandparents. After growing up and moving away, I always try to stay in touch with them both. I have many memories of being around them. After losing moma and Helen's things really changed. Helen was a daddy's girl..she was so proud to let anybody know her daddy was Raymond Ross. Before her passing, she tried to find out if he was the oldest resident in Henry County..Well, you know the story now. When visiting home, we always made a trip to see granddaddy and my mom..coming in and leaving out. So much to say, but God knows my heart how I cared for him. Rest In Heavenly Peace 🕊

We are so sorry to hear of your Loss, Sending condolences and a Heartfelt prayer that God's loving presence will bring Comfort to the Family. The Life Society, Hazel W. Spencer, President.
