Ross was the best professor that I ever had. His kindness and willingness to help and let me be me......has helped me become a good elementary art student. When KET released the "Visual Arts Toolkit" I saw that Ross was on the DVD section. When I found this....the next day I brought it in to show all of my classes. I told them,".....here is the greatest teacher I ever had. Humble, controled, and faithful are things that all of us strive for. Mr. Ross Zirkle has all these things". I love you Ross! Always have!
Love,

Hi Ross. I heard that you were undergoing chemo and wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you and your family and wishing you all the best during this time.
I should also tell you that the grant I submitted wasn't funded by the way (!) Maybe another time.
Take care

hifriend,Ross,
when i came to the University of Kentucky for my art residence in the year 2002,the ist parson i met and with his always smile and always assisting was Ross Zirkle,he made shure i was comfortable always.he took me to Asbury collage,with raymond.we used to hung out together.
2006 i came back and he was there for me,he allowed me to use his computer to check mail from my family from kenya.the news were hard to believe,i am mourning a great friend whom i even asked and always jocked that he should take a brake and come to kenya,do a workshop and go to mombassa for holiday at the beach.
now i know he will have a chance to visit and enjoy,coz i know he is.
he said about me 2006 that "no one can take me(jacob wachira) down".
