|  | Epitaph: "J.D. Ross, one of the
greatest Americans of our generation, was an outstanding
mathematician and equally great engineer. He had also the practical
ability to make things work in the spirit of public opinion and
successful business. More than that, he was a philosopher and lover
and student of trees and flowers. His successful career and
especially his long service in behalf of the public interest are
worthy of study by every American boy." |
