I want to say a special goodbye to my little baby brother, Kenneth Grant Ross.  You will be greatly missed, but will always live on through me.  No one ever said that you would live forever but I promise you your memory will.  God gives people life and when it's time He takes that life.  I guess it was your time.  Kenneth, God can never take away that special loving bond that we shared.  I will never forget you.  When God decides that it's my time, I'll be right next to you.  I love you very much.  So be happy in Heaven my little paper-cup baseball all-star.

Your big brother,
Robert K. Ross"
