It is with deep sadness that we share the news that our dear friend and colleague, Ross E. Poulson Jr., passed away November 15, 2020 at OHSU in Portland, after a brief, heart-related illness.
Ross was born September 11, 1938 in Oakland, Calif., the son of Ross Everett Poulson Sr. and Hazel Fern (Dugger) Poulson.
He worked in the construction industry for many years prior to moving to Reedsport. For the past 20 years, Ross worked as a cemetery counselor at Ocean View Memory Gardens and Sunset Memorial Park in Coos Bay. He was very active with his church families, both at Highlands Baptist Church and the Church of God in Reedsport.
