ROSS, WALTER
Eulogy in Delco Doings
The News-Sentinel, Jan. 7, 1936
The Delco Doings, a weekly paper published by the employees of
the Delco plant at Dayton, Ohio, had the following comment to make
on the death of Walter Ross, former resident of this city, who died in a
hospital at Dayton, Ohio several weeks ago.
Fighting to the last like the brave campaigner he has been
throughout life, Walter Ross passed on to his eternal reward Friday,
December 20. There were few if any harder working, more
conscientious leaders of men and the loss of Walter will be keenly felt
throughout the plant.
Mr. Ross came to Delco Remy in 1923 and was transferred to
Delco Products in the fall of 1927. Shortly after his transfer he was
Assistant Chief Inspector for the position he held at the time of his
death. A picture of Mr. Ross preceded the comment on his life
