In loving memory of Harold Ross 'H' who sadly passed away on 26th July 2025

Dad, Grandad, Great Grandad, and Brother undoubtedly one in a million. Always honest, forthright with his opinions and exceptionally funny and witty with his wisecracks and quips.

Our H will be dearly missed by the whole extended family and friends; however, we console ourselves that we are all the better for him being here and spending precious time with us.

Thanks for being You ❤️❤️❤️

So many memories full of laughter, honest, cooking, gardening well enough to walk down path, Have a brew & chit chat, dancing standing still enjoying our house party's you were always fair. My favourite of so many was from the local pub you would be in playing domino's having just one more with Tom, friends, laughing or deep in conversation putting the world in order. Bar closes you be sure to walk me home safe being your neighbour many a time it would be me walking you home as the last pint, one for the road would be the five steps forward 2 back we laugh alot, as I was always walking to slow maybe because this barmaid didn't drink when I worked😂Harold loved his morning alarm which was me blowing nose next door. Harold will be missed the love and respect will be forever remembered, I have so much gratitude for our friendship ❤️definitely a genuine honest human being. Love you love Sandy, Mick & family 🌹
