Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this time. Ross was a wonderful spirit with a generous heart as well as a love of life. We could always see the love that all of you shared for each other. We always smiled at his love of being an Aggie, and how happy he was being in College Station. We loved him, and our prayers are filled with comfort and strength for all of you.

You are in my prayers and thoughts as you struggle to make sense out of all this. May you feel God's presence with you in your time of grief. Sending love your way.

I wish I could find words to say to express how I feel. Though I never saw him much in high school, I shared classes with him in my childhood and even beginnings in soccer. He was a good person. I wish I had more time to know him. I'll have to miss the visitation due to work, but I wish the best for you all and to remind y'all that in darkest times there is still light. Please keep your spirits up. I'm sorry for your loss.

Ross was my student last semester, and I had he opportunity to interact with him a lot. He visited my office last week to discuss his career plans. He was a very talented computer engineer, and I was referring him to a great job that I thought would be perfect for him. On commencement day I will be sad for not being able to shake his hand as he receives his diploma. I am so sorry. I am looking for information on the funeral services. I hope to be able to attend.
