Kay Gross

Our beloved husband, dad and grandpa, Ronald “Kay” Gross, 85, passed away at his home in the care of his loving family on Aug 19, 2022. Kay, a lifelong resident of Lyman Wyoming, was born Nov 2, 1936 in a 2-story house in Lyman Wyoming. He is the fourth child of six born to Simon Delmar “Delly” and Chloie Minerva Bluemel Gross.

Kay graduated Lyman High School in 1954. He then served overseas in the army after the Korean Conflict. Kay loved ranching and took over his father’s ranch outside of Lyman after several years doing various construction jobs. On June 29th 1981 he married the love of his life, Nona. Together, their two families were made into one. Their time was spent fishing, camping, horseback riding and packing with their family. This is what made Kay the happiest.

Gross, his children - Tammy (Tan) Bowen, Randy (Tami) Gross, Karla (Kevin) Behunin, Pamla (Glenn) Sibert, and Brian (Dorle) Brower, his brother Chuck (Judy) Gross, his sister Patty (Dick) Drollette, nineteen grandkids and thirty-two great grandkids.

Per Kay’s wishes, no funeral services will be held. A celebration of his life will be held for the family on Wednesday, Aug 24th at 10am at the ranch. Following the family celebration will be a luncheon at the Legion Hall for anyone wanting to stop to pay their respects.  In memory of our husband, dad, and grandpa, please go fishing and enjoy the outdoors.
