Dear Theresa, Alexander and Megan, I was saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Ross. Until 10 months ago I lived a short distance away from you on Humbercrest Lane. I enjoyed my many chats and greetings with Ross over the 26 years I lived on the lane and before that down the street. He was a great neighbour and a kind and lovely man. Please accept my deepest condolences.
I am very saddened to hear about Mr Best’s passing. He was the most wonderful and dedicated parent - that is why Alexander and Megan were such amazing
students at Humbercrest School.
Heartfelt condolences to Teresa, Alexander and Megan.
Thinking of you.

I can't remember how many years Ross was principal at Clinton but I taught the Behavioural Special Ed. class for all the years he was there. I have only great memories of Ross. Specifically he was fantastic with the students. A few times I really believe I watched him perform magic in the way he was able to pacify a situation. I think it was because he truly only saw the good in people, in the students, so when he spoke with them, he had such respect for who they really were, fundamentally. He never bought into their bad or negative behaviour. He knew there was so much more to who they were. Ross was great. We coached slo-pitch together for a while and, with his guidance, the team was passed on to me. We won the city championship one year! Thanks Ross.
To the Best family,
I am so sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you Theresa, Alex and Megan. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.
My deepest condolences,
Nancy DeFrancesco
