My deepest sincerest condolences to the Porter and Dillon families. Ross will be sadly missed. May God give you all the strength to get through this very sad and difficult time..

We were five years old, in kindergarten, when we first met. A few years later Ross invited me to the family cottage at Lac de la Montaigne noire. Gary picked us up from school early on a Friday afternoon, we jumped into his white (66 I think) Falcon and we were on our way. We made one pitstop at the original St. Donat bakery for some fresh bread and a Tarte a la sucre! What an awesome weekend. Thank you Ross, for that and for 60 years of friendship.I have nothing but great memories and gratitude. Condolences of course to you Terry and the entire family.
From Sue and Terry.
We'll never forget the friendly smile.
RIP Ross.
My heart goes out to cousin Terry and Austin and Katelyn. The loss of Ross is immense - always a smile on his face, and someone who could be counted on for anything and everything. One of my vivid memories is the baby set-up in Terry and Ross's Somerled apartment - lovingly created by Ross to welcome Austin to NDG!
Thinking of you all, loved Ross, he was a great guy. Anne & Morris
Ross was that special neighbor who was always prepared to help when there was a need, and once that need fulfilled, he could sense when it was time to quietly move on. He took meticulous care with every task, project and interaction, and then he took the time to smile, sit back and enjoy the pleasure of his job well done. He was so wise, respectful, considerate and compassionate to all, human and non-human, and always offered generous positive suggestions and encouragement. His optimistic nature spread throughout the community.
Our deepest condolences and thoughts go to you Terry, Austin, Didi, Katelyn and Matt. Ross was a great brother-in-law and cherished brother, one of the most gentle and kind hearted people we knew. He will be missed deeply.
All our love,
Gary and Diana
My dear friend Ross has been the epitome of a battler these 14 or so years. True to his nature would never give up. He was always looking for another answer/solution when helping me fix my car or fix a broken kitchen. I simply cant remember a time when Ross got angry, or demonstrated his anger. He got P-O'ed but it was usually a short sharp expletive followed by a smile and a laugh. Then we would sit down have a cup of tea (shandy?) and think over the problem. I could be losing my S$%^ but he was always a calming force. Tho we havent been close geographically for a while, Ross and Terry (and the brats) were and will continue to be close in my thoughts. The world got a little poorer. I love you Ross and I will miss you.
Ross was a loving, bright, funny, multifaceted, gifted person. We thank him and his dear Terry for loving and rescuing cats (we know Thumbs loves and thanks you, too :) ). Ross seemed especially at peace in nature. He is a beautiful, gentle soul. It is with fond memories and love that we hold Ross in our hearts. We will miss him, and send our love to his beautiful Terry, Austin, and Katelyn.
With heartfelt condolences, I offer my sympathy to you and your family Terry at this difficult time. May the unforgettable memories you share live on forever.
My deepest condolences to you Terry, Austin, Deidre, Katelyn and Matt as you go through this very difficult time. Ross Porter was a determined, talented, friendly and funny man who will be so missed by many people. My heart goes out to all of you
The world is a lot less bright without Ross. He was always great to be around. Full of laughs and good stories. Like getting himself locked in the trunk of a customer's car at the garage on somerled. I have great memories of helping fix his cars while he was working with Curtis. Helping him out fixing up the house in Hudson. As well as just hanging out and chatting together. There are nothing but great memories of my Brother in law. He will be sorely missed by myself, and I'm sure by everyone he touched in life. Your battle is over, rest well my Brother. ❤️
