"Ross A. Young, 51 of Lake Twp. passed away on November 30, 2013. Ross was born in Canton, Ohio on February 25, 1962 to the late Dennis and Millie Young. He spent several years as a manager in auto parts stores, but found his true calling after some of his own health issues. He became a member of the valvereplacement.org and heartvalvepatients.org forums where he deeply touched the lives of many people, sharing information about his life and experiences. Ross supported others through their heart and health situations and also helping with computer problems. Technology became a vehicle that allowed Ross to overcome his physical limitations and show the world what a great soul he was. He is survived by his loving wife of 33 years Lynda; sons Jeremiah (Dawn) Young, Steve (Jacqueline) Young and Chris Young; 4 grandchildren; brother David and sister Ellen. Memorial service will be at 1 PM on Saturday December 14, 2013 at the Reed Funeral Home North Canton Chapel with Pastor Bob Linsz officiating. Those wishing to send condolences or leave a special message may do so at the Reed online guestbook athttp://www.reedfuneralhome.com ."

Put a good word in for us, Ross. You will be missed here on earth.

"Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'" - Isaac Asimov
It is my ambition to say in ten sentences what others say in a whole book. - Friedrich Nietzsche
does anyone know what his health condition was? all i know was he had a mystery condition that would cause bleeding on his lungs and so he called it "the blebs"
I was going to post a link to that thread, but the SG search results for "bullsh|t" were too numerous
sometimes you have to think outside the box to get inside the box .
You'll be missed Ross. Condolences to his family and friends. He's suffered long enough.
The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, and prejudices to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own for the children and the children yet unborn and the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.
...Wow. What a thread to see on deployment. My best wishes and thoughts go out to his family and friends - I know he will be missed. Such a good person.
