Peacefully passed away surrounded by the love of his family at the North Bay Regional Health Centre on Sunday, November 26, 2023, at the age of 71 years.
Ross was the beloved husband of Glenda (nee Storie) Whitehead and the loving father to Kristine Whitehead (Derek). He is survived by his mother Lois (nee Paul) Whitehead and is predeceased by his father Thomas Whitehead. Ross enjoyed fishing, hunting, and socializing with family and friends. In his later years, he enjoyed working on his ATV trails and making improvements on the family’s Trout Creek property. He will be fondly remembered for his humorous “one-liners” and facial expressions.
The family would like to thank Dr. Quinn for making her weekly home visits and the home care team for granting Ross’s wishes to spend more time at home.
As per Ross’s wishes, cremation has taken place. There will not be a service. If desired, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be gratefully acknowledged by his family. Online condolences can be made at www.mcguintyfuneralhome.com
