BCR Communities is greatly saddened by the loss of Ross Gates who was a volunteer with BCR for over seven years. As the talented drummer of our volunteer Pirates Band, he brought joy to residents at aged care facilities across our region. He was a well-respected friend to many at the BCR Activities Hub and devoted himself to giving to our community. We will miss his generous spirit, positivity and optimism. We send our deepest condolences to his wife Ann and all his loved ones.

Ross , I met you long ago about 1976. We reconnected about 12 yrs ago and you and David would catch up and play the guitar. You are an amazing man to have gone through all that you and Anne have always keeping things to yourself. Never wanting sympathy your so amazing and I will hold close the last things we talked of before my heart surgery only days before your passing. May you be at peace and pain free. Fly high. ❤️

I am very sorry to not be able to attend on the 14th. I have fond memories of working with Ross at Huskisson Ambulance. He was a dedicated professional who always put others first and gave without hesitation. Ross had the ability to put people at ease and make everyone feel good. A larikin with a great sense of humor. If I had to pick one attribute Ross displayed constantly, it would be an almost unbreakable spirit of optimism and positivity. Rest in Peace.
