Ross Hollinger, born August 11, 1953, passed away at the Campbell River Hospital September 24, 2020 after a brief fight with cancer.
Ross was survived by his sons, Joshua and Anthony who he was extremely proud of. Ross also had 3 grandchildren - Bentley, Ripley and Emily. Ross was a commercial fisherman for a few years then changed occupations and obtained his Bachelor of Science (in Metallurgy) and his Professional Engineer designation. He then worked in the mining industry (predominately underground) for the remainder of his career in Canada, the US, Africa, and Venezuela.
Ross enjoyed golf and fishing in his spare time and loved to play with 'his boys'. He was the most proud watching Josh play baseball, and wrestling with Anthony, and commented regularly to his family how pleased he was with the men his 'boys' had grown into being.
Ross is also survived by his sisters Jean Dresen and Betty Klatt, and his nieces and nephew Paula, Rosie and Brian Klatt. A huge thank you to Jean for her care giving assistance the last few weeks of his life.
Ross' passing leaves a huge void in the Hollinger family dynamic. He will be deeply missed.
The family's deepest thanks to Dr. Sutherland, Dr. Klein, Dr. Morrison and the nursing team on 3B at the Campbell River hospital and VIHA.
