We were so saddened to hear of Uncle Ross passing but can only imagine the joyous reunion that has taken place with your mom and all of his siblings and his parents. We can just imagine the teasing , laughing and reminiscing that’s going on. Uncle Ross always made us feel loved and so happy to see him. He was such a kind man who could always get you laughing and made sure he got his teasing in too. You kids were so blessed to have such a wonderful father who loved his wife and you kids dearly. He was so proud of you all. May all the wonderful memories you have bring comfort to you. You are all in our thoughts and prayers❤️ Don, Jackie & family
Ross was just a character. He enjoyed talking with everyone and teasing them just a little bit. He was a wonderful man and sure loved his family.
Sorry for your loss.
My heart goes out to all siblings and children of the Chambers family, but what a long life he had! I was in Mary’s class in the Armada school and Ross was a few grades higher. I have fond memories of both of them. R.I.P. Ross.
Sincerest Condolences to you all. I always enjoyed Ross’ joking and sense of humor! Take care, Tanya & Hunter Brauer

Memories of Ross spark many feelings of humor and fun. It was my lucky day when we first met at Dick’s. We always had chats over the years, and most recently on his walks in the subdivision. I would share the pride that the family will have in this character.
To all the wonderful Chambers kids…. Words really don’t describe Ross and Mary – their marriage, their babies, their children growing into such fine people, their grandchildren who were so fortunate to have them as grandparents and on and on. Our family was so lucky to have them as friends and the fun we had. We can’t mention Ross without Mary, as they were a pair always. The challenges they had when their family was small, losing their two sons, but they held together!
You are all in our thoughts and prayers kids and it was such a privilege to have you all in our lives!
Love, Eileen Brownell, Hollyand Terry, Randy and Rob Myers

My deepest condolences to the Chambers Family on the passing of Ross.
His smile, always made my day. He will be missed.
Another great man, farmer and neighbor has left this world to look down and guide his family in memories. Always enjoyed visiting Ross. His struggles are over and he is at peace. What a great reunion for your Mom and Dad, Tim and Les. A great family. Thinking of you all at this time❤️
My sincere sympathy goes out to all the Chambers family! Ross was a terrific person … a wonderful neighbour and a good friend to all! Family, farm, and community meant everything to Ross and Mary, and they faithfully attended every event and whole heartedly supported every worthy cause! I never heard Ross utter an unkind word about anyone, and his ready smile and friendly demeanour always made even the briefest encounter a true pleasure! In spite of health issues and personal tragedy both he and Mary always stayed upbeat and positive, with an eye on the future. Always a very important part of the Armada/Lomond/Vulcan communities, they will be long remembered … and very much missed by all of us! Marvin Maronda
