Larry R. Ross, 77

June 25, 2018

Larry R. Ross, 77, of East Petersburg, PA went to be with The Lord on June 25, 2018 after a sudden illness. He was surrounded by his family as he peacefully passed. He was one of four children of the late Kenneth and Francis Ross and is survived by his sister, Donna Lee Schmucker, and his brothers, Richard Ross and Edward Ross.
He is survived by his loving wife of 32 years, Rena (Sanderson) Ross. In addition to his wife, he will be lovingly be remembered by his 6 children, Diane Fasig, wife of Steven, Deborah LaVenice, wife of Michael, Mark Marchegiani, husband of Maria, Grace Bachman, wife of Earl, Robert Marchegiani, and Rebecca Fossler, wife of Gregory, along with 10 grandchildren, Matthew Fasig, Nicholas LaVenice, Brittany Utley, Erin LaVenice, Megan Pinkerton, Brandon Fasig, Drew Pinkerton, Alex Fossler, Ian Marchegiani and Aubrey Fossler along with 1 great-grandchild, Samuel Utley.
Upon graduation from Shanksville High School and Juniata College, he started his career in insurance and joined Ross Insurance Agency in 1977 and “semi-retired” in 2006. He was valued by his clients and co-workers with his personable approach and old-school work ethic.
His faith and family were the foundation of his life and his humorous, light-hearted spirit was appreciated by all. He was a role model, mentor and friend who will be greatly missed.
Relatives and friends will be received from 2-3 PM with a Memorial Service to begin at 3 PM on Saturday, June 30th at Lancaster Church of the Brethren, 1601 Sunset Ave., Lancaster, PA 17601.

Such a shock to loose Larry. He was always on top of his insurance business. He personally would stop by our shop for our insurance needs. Always a great inspiration to us. He will sorely be missed.

Another Earth Angel goes to Heaven. Larry was the epitome of class. A true gentlemen that others could follow as an example of how to be in life. A professional all the way, yet so easy and down to earth. Larry will be sorely missed here on earth, however, so welcome in Heaven.

To the Ross family,
How sad.  Such a great loss.  I first met Larry during the mid 80’s when he helped me get much needed insurance.  My prayers go out to you.  He was a wonderful person, and I know will be greatly missed.
