Brian Ross was born February 11th, 1975 to John (Clara) Ross Sr.

Anyone that knows Brian knows his love was children Madalyn and Allison Ross. They were his pride and joy. He would do anything for them girls. They were his first priority over anything else. Brian remained very good friends with their mother Rachel Thomas and they were great example of what co-parenting should be. Rachel's family valued Brian and loved him as much as his did. Brian was also a huge KC Chiefs Fan. We often watched the games together but when we weren't together there was a group text that we participated in. We often would get scolded by his nephews because they had a delay watching the game through an app. His beloved dog "Little Man" passed away in the summer of 2020. He loved dogs. He had many close friends that stayed in contact with and was a big part of his life. He had several interests throughout his short life with family and friends he enjoyed: listening to all types of music, reading, going to the movies, Magic the Gathering Card Game, Dungeon and Dragons, fishing, cooking, and being with family and friends.

Brian is the youngest out of the 3 of kids. He has been pretty sick most of his adult life. He moved to Texas in September 2017 so I could help oversee his healthcare. He was raised in Blue Springs, MO until he was 12/13 and then moved to Calhoun, MO until 2017. He was the most genuine person I knew. He was so special to me. He never liked to ask for help and if you needed help he would give you his last cent or the shirt off his back. He lived a very simple life within his means and didn't need much to be happy. He was my best friend and I was his. We were 4 years apart but it never seemed like that. He was one of the greatest men I know.

Brian was preceded in death by his father John Ross Sr. and mother Clara Ross. He is survived by his two children Madalyn and Allison Ross of Calhoun, MO. His brother John Ross Jr. (Fort Worth, TX)  and sister Angela Tynes and husband Luther Tynes (Fort Worth, TX). His nephews Andrew and Aron Anderson and wife Bailey Anderson (Fort Worth, TX) and niece Danielle Ross (Fort Worth, TX). He has Aunts, Uncles, and cousins. Many close friends.

Services have been entrusted to Vansant-Mills Funeral Home, Clinton, Missouri.
