Timothy J. "Timmy" Ross, 35, of Sandusky, passed away unexpectedly late Thursday morning, December 8, 2022, at the Fisher-Titus Medical Center, in Norwalk, OH.
   Born on March 7, 1987, in Torrington, Connecticut, the son of James and Kerry Patricia (O'Connell) Ross.  He attended St. Mary's Central Catholic High School.
   Timmy had a heart of gold and was willing to help anyone. He had such compassionate and caring nature. Timmy had two beautiful children that always captured his heart. He was getting into a healthy life style as he loved working out and lifting weights. He had a wonderful group of people that were on the same journey as him. He found God and felt truly Blessed for another chance in life. As many know the struggles are real, they come in at any time and tempt you. Timmy loved his family and his true friends to the core of his soul. To his crew in Cleveland, he loved and cherished that you all were on a journey to a better life.
   Tim is survived by a daughter, Sadie Ross; and a son, Benson Ross both of Columbus; his parents; a brother, Tyler (Mariah) Ross of Sandusky; and several aunts, uncles and cousins.
   He was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, John and Ann (Baker) O'Connell; and his paternal grandparents, Frank and Marge (Tater) Ross; and other relatives.
   It was his wish to be cremated.  The family will receive friends on Sunday afternoon, Dec 18, 2022 from 1:00 pm until time of the memorial service at 3:00 pm at the David F. Koch Funeral and Cremation Services, 520 Columbus Avenue, Sandusky.  Deacon Jeff Claar officiating.
