    I regret that I just learned today of Ross' passing and I am in disbelief.
    It must have been around 1974 that Ross picked up my brother, Dan Roscoe Reece, as he was hitchhiking through Vandalia, Illinois.

    I did not know Ross for very long or very well, but the news of his passing still hurt and I am writing this knowing how many lives Ross touched. I first met Ross through an email, getting his address from a mutual friend when I was planning my first...  more

      Chisato Yamamoto Christen, thank you so much! Made me cry again. I still cannot help crying when I am remembering him. Yes, he always loved to help! That is something he taught Cocoro through his life. He had a really big heart.

    With Ross, Chisato and Cocoro in Japan and us living in Brooklyn New York, we were physically distant but the friendship and love shared between us and our daughters began the moment we met. We all shared a love of cooking and spending time together and...  more

      Jamie Michaud Thank you for sharing this photo. The cancer changed the way he looked, but he was still Ross and his spirit shows through in this photo. I know how much you miss him. You and Cocoro are always in my heart.

      Chisato Yamamoto Jamie, He used to joke "The only best thing coming from this cancer is losing weight."

    Before moving to Japan, we traveled many places because Ross was on the tour all the time. This one is from Paris, in May 2008.

      Jamie Michaud Thank you for these photos of Ross and Cocoro; I love them all. Each photo shows the profound love between the two of them. I know that being a father was Ross's greatest joy, and he lives on in Cocoro.

    I met Ross in 1995 somewhere in the Midwest, when I was touring as a vendor on the Lollapalooza tour. Neither of us were working at Blue Man yet. He was a beacon of joyful and friendly ease in a sea of of sweltering humans during one of the most...  more

    When Ross was born in 1954, my family lived directly across the street from the Humphrey family in Bloomington, Illinois, so I have known him since he was born. Ross's mom and my mom were great friends, and Ross and Mike were like my brothers because I...  more

    I met Ross in 1983, shortly after joining the Humphrey family via Ross's brother, Michael. The lifestyle Ross led was intriguing to me and I loved hearing stories about his travels and adventures. Michael and I moved West and lived in remote locations...  more
