Our Forever Neighbor

We were so saddened to hear about the passing of “our forever neighbor, Maiden(Ernest). His first name is in parentheses because he was known and called Maiden by us. Some of my family’s fondest memories include being neighbors with the Maiden Family, such as “the annual neighborhood block parties” and his “famous barbecue source.” Being his next door neighbor made us feel as though we had a safety net. I remember when I needed a ride to work and Maiden was there; our yard was mowed by Maiden; and when I ran for Judge, my sign was in his yard. Although now, we are miles apart and don’t talk as often, he will truly be missed by the Ross Family. We love him and thank him for his kindness shown to us.
