The family of Thierry (Jerry) R Ross has invited the PGR to accompany participate in honoring him and his service to our country. It will be a privilege to do so.

Jerry entered the military at age 17 when he joined the USN. After a deployment to Vietnam he transferred to the Marine Corp where he attained the rank of Corporal.

After completing military service in 1979, he worked in various trades, including CEO of Far Sound Communications. Jerry also created the motorcycle detailing product, Purple Slice and attended many motorcycle events and shows.

His interests were also varied. He enjoyed boxing, coaching baseball, golf, restoring cars and traveling and riding his Harley. Always family oriented, his family includes wife Barbara of 40 years, brother Wesley, children Monica, Christopher and John and six (6) grandchildren.

For those interested, and all are welcome, we will be accompanying the hero and his family from the Funeral Home to his final resting place.
