He graduated from Bloomfield High School in 1963 and went on to graduate from the University of Mississippi in 1967, with a bachelor's degree. Ross' passion for architecture led him to travel and live in many different vibrant cities such as New York City and Miami Beach, FL. He had the artistry gift to turn simple décor into elegancy. His passion and talent earned him the pleasure of working for famous art galleries such as Wally Finley Gallery and Hammer Art Gallery in New York City, NY. Ross could light up a room with laughter bringing dry humor and memorable conversation. In his personal time, he enjoyed riding his bicycle in South Beach, spending time by the ocean, reading literature, and spending time with his family and friends. Many will remember him as a loved soul that brought so much magic to their world. He was a loving brother, uncle, and friend that everyone was blessed to have in their life.
