Ross Pugh, 83, of Grand Rapids, Ohio passed away April 26, 2019. Ross was born on November 8, 1935 to the late James and Esther (Shufelt) Pugh in McClure, Ohio.

Ross is survived by his sons: Steve Pugh, Travis Pugh; sisters: Lois Lee, Eleanor Eckhart; 4 grandchildren; 5 great grandchildren: his canine companion Mollie; and a host of loving nieces and nephews. Ross was preceded in death by his parents; brother Ray Pugh; and sisters Doris Bills and June Wright.

Ross proudly served his country in the United States Army during the Korean War. He loved riding his lawn mower and going uptown to greet everyone. Ross always had a smile, loved to laugh, was happy to see everyone, and could talk to anyone. Ross was a dedicated recycler in Grand Rapids and was affectionally known as the “Can Man.” He was a sports fanatic who loved the Cleveland Indians and supporting the local youth sports teams. Ross loved to take things apart and see how they run and could fix anything except his TV remote. He had a “green thumb” and loved to grow flowers, especially tulips and had a special place in his heart for his canine companion Mollie.

Visitation for Ross will be held on Thursday, May 2, 2019 from 10:00 AM until the time of his funeral service at 12:00 PM in the Wright-Hanneman Funeral Home, 24084 W. Second Street, Grand Rapids, Ohio 43522. Interment will immediately follow in Wood County Memory Gardens.
