Ross Alan Norris, age 75 of Monticello, AR, passed away Monday, March 23, 2026, at Baptist Drew Memorial Hospital in Monticello. He was born December 10, 1950, in West Point, AR to the late J.D. Norris and Winona Hinch Norris.
He was a retired law enforcement officer and attended the Church of Christ. Ross was an avid hunter, houndsman, fisherman and an excellent shot with a pistol. He shared his love for the outdoors with his boys and lived his life on his own terms. You would never catch him without his cowboy hat, boots and a good dog. He loved to tease everyone he met and was always quick witted. He was known to our family as the archivist for our family history. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a sister, Sharon Norris Ahab.
Survivors include two sons, Stephen Norris, Chance Norris and wife Tabitha; along with his grandchildren, Anna Funderburg and husband Jake, Graci Norris, Caleb Norris, Tessa Norris and Jase Norris.
