It is with great sadness that Charles Ross & Son Company announces the passing of Richard Ross, former president of Charles Ross & Son Company, on Sept. 14, 2024. Rich was a visionary leader who played an instrumental role in shaping the company’s future and global success. Taking the helm as president in 1961, Rich’s leadership, foresight, and dedication drove Charles Ross & Son Company, also known as ROSS Mixers, to new heights establishing manufacturing facilities in New York, Georgia and Florida. His commitment to innovation and excellence expanded the company’s footprint far beyond its U.S. roots, leading to the establishment of major operations worldwide, including China and India. In 1999, Rich established the company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), a visionary decision that not only empowered employees as stakeholders but laid the foundation for the company’s continued growth and success as a leader in industrial mixing technology. Outside of his professional achievements, Rich had a passion for animals, travel and a deep love of the water. An avid sport fisherman, he owned many of the finest sport fishing yachts ever built and spent much of his leisure time fishing and enjoying life on the sea. Rich will be deeply missed by his loving family, colleagues, and the countless people whose lives he touched through his work and example. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, Sept. 21, 2024, at 11:00 AM at St. Mary’s Episcopal Church, located at 623 SE Ocean Blvd., Stuart, FL 39994. In lieu of flowers and memory of Rich, please consider donating to The Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
