Today I am giving thanks for the life of my dear Uncle Ross. He was a gentle, kind-spirited man who always had a place in his heart for his family. Our large family would make treks across Canada and we would always be warmly welcomed into the Piggott home. I will miss that twinkle in his eye and our quiet conversations and laughter.
