So hard to let our loved ones go . He was such a gentle man with a gentle soul. Just something for a chuckle. I am his niece, and when I was in highschool my longtime boyfriend broke up with me. So my dear uncle, which happened to own a really cool corvette picked me up at school and made sure he would see me laughing with this guy in his little red corvette.. He had no clue that he was my uncle. Job success. Over the years it gave us a good laugh.i will cherish so many memories of him. He was a family man that loved his wife. Linda, and his two beautiful daughters. He will be missed by so many. Love you and RIP, my sweet Uncle Farmer.

I have great memories of my Uncle Farmer and aunt Linda. I always remember him calling me “Kathy sue” and to me he was a gentle soul, like so many of the gross family were and are. I just wish I would have been able to make the trip in March to see him as that was the plan until the world was struck with this virus. I know he will be greatly missed by my sweet aunt and cousins. I want to think that him and dad are reminiscing in heaven right now! . My love to aunt Linda, Missy and Mandy, Kathy

March, 1980 was the beginning of a new job at Dover Elevator for my husband and the beginning of a friendship with Farmer and his family that would span 4 decades. It was a friendship that neither years nor miles (lots of miles) would dim. Farmer was a soft spoken man who loved Linda, Missy, Mandy, and life. He loved his family and he loved his friends and he loved golf, but when together he and my husband Lee would talk ELEVATORS, golf, and ELEVATORS. Farmer, you will be forever in our hearts, and Linda will forever be a part of our Florida vacations ….. and we will talk about Farmer and our memories of this wonderful man …. who loved family, golf, ELEVATORS, and us.
