Ross Park Lindstrom, a much-loved husband, father, son, brother, uncle, friend, and educator passed away on Friday, March 24th in Cheyenne, WY. Ross was 34 and a life-long resident of Cheyenne.
Ross is survived by his wife, Jennifer; daughter, Malin; sons, Soren and Cormac; parents, Julie and Bill Lindstrom; sister, Jill; grandfather, Dean Lindstrom; grandmother, Norma Hensley, and many in-laws, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews.
Ross was born January 26th, 1989, in Cheyenne to Julie and Bill.He attended elementary school in Cheyenne, graduated from Central High School, and graduated from the University of Wyoming in Laramie with a bachelor’s in education. He was a social studies teacher in Laramie County School District #1 in Cheyenne.
Ross and Jenn met at the University of Wyoming and were partners for 13 years. They married in November 2017. This union was celebrated by Malin and Soren, along with the couple’s extensive California and Midwest families. Cormac joined the family in May 2022.
Whether Ross was reading to his children bed-time stories, playing chess, stunning them with his trivia knowledge, or making them laugh with dad jokes, all three children lit up around their Dad.
He was devoted to his family and to his community. He was a dedicated, influential teacher and mentor to his students. He was also a talented musician; he loved sharing his songwriting, guitar, and voice talent with the community, from his time with the All-City Children’s Chorus to solo and group singing gigs around southeast Wyoming. He will be cherished always for his sensitive soul, his kind heart, and his joyful spirit.
Ross was preceded in death by his paternal grandmother, Jan Lindstrom and his maternal grandfather, Hubert Hensley. Wiederspahn Radomsky Funeral Home in Cheyenne is in charge of cremation.
A celebration of life will be scheduled later this year. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be sent to the Ross Lindstrom Memorial Fund.
