Passed away peacefully on Thursday, April 17, 2025. Dearly loved husband for over 45 years of Hetty, cherished Dad of Miranda, and Nat, father-in-law of Kev, and Cam, adored ‘Cracker’ of Mariette, Rosie, Tyler, Luella, and Freddie, loved son of the late Bill and Pat, much loved brother and brother-in-law of Robyn and Richard, Lynley and Ken, Chris and Tania., much-loved in-law of Hetty’s family, loved uncle, cousin and friend. Ross always lived his life to the full. Despite many years of serious health issues, he battled on courageously, mostly with a keen sense of humour and a vivid story to tell, Ross was devoted to his family (and pets) and always had time for his mates. Brave to the end, at rest now: Revelation 21.4. Messages can be left on Ross’ tribute page at www.thompsonfd.co.nz. As per the family’s wishes, a private burial has been held. A farewell for Ross for all of his friends and family will be held at a later date.
