Obituary of Dr. Ross Allan Grant
Ross, 97, passed away peacefully on Saturday, December 28 at The Village of Winston Park, Kitchener.
Ross was born in his parents’ (Albert & Jean) farmhouse in Avonbank, Ontario. He attended high school in St. Mary’s and later graduated in 1952 from the medical school at the University of Western Ontario. While in medical school, he had entered the Navy Reserves and traveled to Halifax to work in the naval hospital. While there, he had a blind date with Doreen Randall. They married a year later. Ross and Doreen celebrated their 70th anniversary before Doreen’s passing in 2022.
Ross and Doreen were the loving parents of five children: Dr. David Grant (Sheila); Stephen Grant (Cathy); Cynthia Andrews (Dennis); Robert Grant; and Elizabeth Grant (Jason Aurini). Ross also loved doting on his nine grandchildren: Erin Abreu (Wilson), Ryan Grant (Lisa), Allison Greer (Patrick), Elizabeth (Nick Kaluzny), Charles (Krissy Wishart), Laura, Maia, William, Isabella, and seven great-grandchildren.
Ross practiced family medicine in Kitchener for 49 years. In addition to private practice, Ross was medical consultant for Uniroyal Canada, for Uniroyal Tire factories in Kitchener and for J.M. Schneider’s. He was attending physician and Medical Director at Winston Park Long Term Care. Ross was a founding member of the Council of College of Family Medicine of Canada, and of the local branch of the Canadian College of Family Medicine. He was a founding member and vice-president of After Hours M.D. medical clinics and served on the board of Habitat For Humanity for several years.
Whether at work or away from the office, Ross always found the good in people and approached life with optimism, warmth and humour. In his personal life, Ross loved to spend time with family and friends at his cottage at Bogies Beach on Lake Huron. He and Doreen were long time members of Westmount Golf & Country Club and both enjoyed their time there playing bridge with dear friends. He also played golf well into his 80’s. In his early 80’s he shot his one and only hole in one.
Ross is predeceased by his wife Doreen, his sister and four brothers.
The family sincerely thank the staff on the fifth floor at Winston Park for their kind and thoughtful care over the last two years. They also extend their heartfelt gratitude and well wishes to Joan Cowcill who aided both Ross and Doreen greatly in their declining years.
Ross’ life will be celebrated with a private memorial service for the family.
