Gross, of Franklin;  brother, Earl Gross of Franklin;  sisters Shelia (Kevin) Conner, of Edinburgh, Susie (Earl) Hogan, of Columbus, and Sharon (Dwayne) Botts, of Edinburgh; grandchildren, Meagan, Josiah, Madison, Jasmine, Matthew, Jayden, Eric, Liberty, Gene, Aubree, Olivia, and Jaxon; and great granddaughter, Eva Jo.  He was also preceded in death by his infant daughter, Sharon Mae Gross; his brother, Eddie Gross, and his infant brother Christopher Gross.  Rev. Douglas Smith will officiate a funeral service at 12:00 p.m., Friday, February 25, 2022, at the Edinburgh Full Gospel Church, 507 W. Center Cross Street, Edinburgh.  Visitation will be from 10:30 until the service at the church.  Burial will be in Rest Haven Cemetery, Edinburgh.  Arrangements have been entrusted to Community Funeral Care, Edinburgh.
