April 3, 1958 - September 12, 2015
Harry Kenneth “Ken” Ross Jr. was born on April 3, 1958 in Henderson, Texas. He married Jacqueline “Jackie” Ann Ross on May 8, 1991 in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. They have three children: Michael Ross, age 30 of Dallas, Helena Ross, age 21 of Plano, and Paige Ross, age 19 of Plano. Ken served honorably in the United States Air Force for 20 years. During that time, he achieved the rank of Master Sergeant. In August of 1990, Ken met Jackie at the NCO Club on the Upper Heyford AFB. After marrying, they immigrated to the United States in 1991. Ken worked as an engineer in the telecom industry for 20 years at Nortel/Avaya.
Ken was an avid hunter and accomplished marksman. He received numerous awards at state competitions. Ken had a definite need for speed. It didn’t matter if it was dirt bikes, street bikes, or sports cars. He built his 1965 Shelby Cobra replica by hand. Ken enjoyed fishing and anything outdoors. He was a loving family man who enjoyed spending time with Jackie and their three children.
A memorial service for Ken will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 24th 2015 at our North Dallas Funeral Home Chapel 2710 Valley View Lane, Farmers Branch, TX
