“Ross, a unique and special person who expressed his wonderful artistic gift in many ways. He created beautiful art forms, yet felt the world's problems deeply; sometimes feeling sadness, until he found spiritual peace. You'll always be remembered with love my friend. Valerie”

“Received this shocking and sad news today, 29th August. We had met on Facebook and our friendship had grown from strength to strength. We shared some great conversations revolving around our day to day lives, as well as the political situation prevailing in my country, India, and around the world. He was extremely intelligent and well read. I hope his near and dear ones take care of his pet birds whom he loved so dearly. I'm sure, we shall meet on Judgement Day and greet each other again. Ameen.”
