Grave of BOB ROSS - His Magic Lives On

- I had always wanted to visit The Grave of Bob Ross and I had been saying for months that I was going to go there, the next time I had to be in the Orlando area. So, when I was invited to Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights that Sunday, I left Tampa early enough so that I could visit the cemetery, which is only 7 miles North of USO. I arrived at the cemetery and after a good hour of searching, I found Bob's grave and then realized I had came on what would have been his 75th birthday, October 29th. Then as I found his Grave, a man approached, and it was Bob Ross's brother. It was almost like magic. I want to thank Allen Ross for being very polite to me and sharing the memories of his brother with me. It was truly a magical experience that I will never forget. Allen Ross gave me a personal photograph of him and Bob in his home in 1991. If you look at the photograph you will see one of Bob's paintings behind them. Bob Ross is buried next to his parents and the rest of the Ross family. When I was young I watched The Joy of Painting on PBS and Bob's talent and gentle demeanor shaped not only beautiful landscapes on the canvas, but also shaped the hearts and minds of many. I consider myself very blessed and lucky to have experience such an awesome moment. Thank you for watching.

"Everybody needs a friend"
"Even a tree."
That’s a great quote :-) thank you for watching my friend
Yes yes even tacos
*i have no friends :(*
I'm not an Otaku I swear! It’s okay I’ll be your friend
Trees are a man's best friend.
*We're just going to paint some little trees here.*
MR.NWP love it dude. Thanks for watching
Happy little trees
Trees is our comrade.
Kids watching: oh no he made a mistake no what is he supposed to do
Bob Ross: "no mistakes, just happy accidents"
:) I love Bob Ross
I remember him saying that😢😢😭😭
"Ever make mistakes in life? Let's make them birds. Yeah, they're birds now."
- Bob Ross
E S C L I P S The shirt I'm wearing right now has that exact quote.
@@kooky.klownz they are trying to say since bob died, he is a bird now. I don’t know why that’s funny
@@kooky.klownz : that’s not funny hon that is sad... a lot of people misses bob ross and do not find this funny at all tbh
@@candelariajohnson7095 im very sorry for what i said, i forgot i even made the comment, I've now deleted it if that makes anything better, again im sorry
@@kooky.klownz : its okay.. just don’t do that again..
Ok lets paint fluffy lil happy clouds
MovieJohn and some little trees too LOL
😂

I love painting and I love painting clouds just like bob, as I paint along with him from his videos to my home from my phone.
@@monjarinafsheen9867 I love to paint those happy lil tress as I watch a bob ross video.
"Were gonna paint some friends for this tree because even trees need friends"
-- Bob ross
You ran into his brother after searching for over an hour. Sounds like one of Bob’s happy little accidents. Thanks for this.
Tampa Jay.. you were definitely blessed to have sporadically ran into bob brother at the same time you were looking for Bob's market. And to met him and receive a photo of the two..wow. bob was definitely with yall. Somewhere in the wind sound in your phone, sounded like bob himself for a brief second. Bob was with you in spirit.
It sure does. Love his late nite calming programme in the uk 🇬🇧
@@ameliaorris8804 all of that shit is made up there is such a thing as LUCK you fucking moron
I don’t think that was Bob Ross’ brother
@@squarehead2000 same
I watch Bob Ross every night before bed so relaxing
Same
Same
@@jimmorrison3756 even my man Jim Morrison loves watching Bob Ross
Me too
I compare it to smoking weed, it is literally that relaxing. It makes me feel kinda high even when I’m not. Obviously watching Bob Ross stoned is better lol.
4.28..2018.. thanks for sharing the picture of Bob and his brother Allen Ross.. I haven't seen Allen since all of us gathered at Bob's home in Winter Springs neat Orlando.. Oh! I am Vicky Ross.. Bob's first Wife .. I was at Bob's gravesite.. 4..26..2018..
Hey Vicky :) I’m so happy that you came across my video and I’m glad that it brought you back some good memories. Bob was such a big influence in my life when I was a kid and I was honored to go visit his resting place. I had no idea I would run into his brother or it happened to be his birthday. I just thought at that time It was coincidence, But later it felt like this it happen for a reason. I call it my happy little ghost story because I felt like Bob’s spirit was truly with us that day. Allen was a very nice man and was really happy to see me. He gave me that photo, and I keep it in my car above my head in the visor. I started making videos almost a year ago and it has became my passion. This will always be my favorite one. I hope you are doing well and I’m sure you have so many good memories and stories with Bob :) He truly has changed my life, that day changed my life. Maybe I’ll run into one day
Vicky Ross wow what great news I used to watch Bob when I was a kid
Tampa Jay says on wiki he only had 2 wifes ... Spouse(s)Lynda Brown (?-1981; divorced)
Jane Ross (1980s-1993; her death) so is vicky before lynda
It would of been a pleasure to have met you. Today is my first day working here at this beautiful property. Hope to meet you one day. Bob was a great men, love watching his shows. Take care.
McCann22 from what I understand he was married 3 times! Vivian/Vicky was first they had Steve and (Morgan?) divorced in 1977. His second wife from 1977-1992 divorced 93 she passed. His last wife, they married right before Bob died! I would really like to know if Steve Ross is still painting? It would be amazing if he would come back to do art videos on CZcams and have his own series! I would really like to know why he didn’t carry on with the Joy Of Painting after his father passed?
I do apologize if I got the names and dates incorrect, it’s really not my place to be giving this information, because I didn’t know him personally, just what I have read! Again I do apologize and mean no harm!
Thank You! 😊🌲
What an honor to meet his brother and hear great stories of such a talented man. Thanks so much for sharing. RIP Bob Ross.
Alice the Gmaw it was such an honor Alice. I'm thankful for being in the right place at the right time. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching
Rest in Peace of the Best Bob Ross, He is a Priceless Painting to my memories forever🙏😊👑😊🙏
I actually can't believe you met his brother on his birthday dude! The photo you just got was I think probably taken sometime before his death because of the afro wig that he had to wear since he was very sick and loss a lot of hair. It's a miracle that you have his personal photo now! 😀☺😊
Thank you my friend I actually like to call this my happy little accident or my happy little ghost story. Bob Ross was like a mentor to me through the TV when I was a very young kid and wanted to paint. I just always wanted to go there I didn’t realize what his birthday was. Meeting Alan was one of the best things that ever happened to me I still have goosebumps. I think you’re right I didn’t realize about the wig. I still keep that photo over my visor in my car. I look at it on days when I’m not feeling well or feeling down it brightens my day it’s one of the best things that has ever happened to me thank you so much for washing and your kind words
it's been a pleasure Jay, you earned a sub! 😊
wow talk about a cool stroke of luck.
My favorite bob Ross quote is
"We don't make mistakes We Make Happy Accidents"
4:41
The way the wind has been hitting the speaker or whatever makes your voice sound demonic omg
YoUr mUm ikr
Lets beat the devil out of he!
YoUr mUm omg so tru LOL
That's what I noticed
Did you just change your profile pic? And maybe it’s not and it’s him
Bob Ross was awesome.. not only was he an Air Force vet like myself, but I remember when I was a kid being mesmerized by his ability to create beauty on canvas with minimal paint strokes. Your legacy continues even in 2021 Mr Ross…you were a gentle man gone to soon.
Thank you for stopping by Please Subscribe. It was truly a magical moment to meet Bob's brother on what would have been his 75th birthday, and all this was pure coincidence. I couldn't wait to share this with all of you.

All kidding aside, I found out a week back this wonderful man was laid to rest in what’s literally my back yard and couldn’t believe it! So I decided to find him and lo and behold it was the July 4th!!! His day of passing... I was honored to have been able to leave a paint brush for him on his headstone. Coincidences are so cool...
Kachmi Ifiuken That’s awesome my friend you had another magical moment. Such an awesome man I do believe he has a spirit of happiness lurking about that place. So happy it led you to this great
@@TampaJay It was not his pinky...it was his index finger on his L hand! Happy painting ☺🌲🌲
JJ P thanks for the correction my friend. There are no mistakes, only happy accidents :)
Man, this dude was a big part of my childhood. I use to watch him after school and even tried to mimic the most basic stuff that he painted. He would dab the canvas with a basic brush and make these beautiful leaves.. I would do the EXACT same and come out with a beautiful mess... lol.. Thanks for sharing this Jay 👍🏼 Awesome Video! Watched & Liked 👍🏼👍🏼
Jose De La Rosa Thank you so much Jose. I'm glad you enjoyed it buddy. I too had an experience like that when I was younger. I'm glad I could share this with you and everyone who knows how awesome he was. Thanks for watching dude
All jokes aside, this was a great video. I loved it.
Todd E Walnuts Thank you Todd. Can't describe how much fun that was, and how excited I was. Bob is awesome.
"If you want green clouds, you should have green clouds." - Bob Ross
How incredible person he was that we can't forget him. Thanks for showing his grave.
I luved watching this man as a child his voice was so soothing just would put me to sleep,counting Happy Little Sheeps.
What an amazing video and experience thanks for sharing
Mark Fun Jones Thanks for watching my good friend. I was very lucky to capture this. I'm glad I could share it with you. Old Hank Ross would be proud lol
My great grandma died this year and I always loved to watch Bob Ross with her every day before we napped, she was such a kind soul just like Bob. To this day I watch Bob before bed to remind myself the beauty in the simple things, we all are and always will be the “painters of our own little world” life is as beautiful as you paint it to be so keep painting and remember your mistakes are beautiful happy accidents
Really cool that you had the privilege of meeting his brother. PeaPod! The laziest squirrel ever lol.
Thank you Oscar I’ll never forget that day. I feel very lucky to have been there. Peapod is awesome :-)
R.I.P. Bob Ross , thanks for all the memories of your paintings you were a great 🎨 and you'll be deeply deeply missed
The painting technique he used was called "wet on wet". Most would let their first placement of oil somewhat dry before adding more. His technique was astounding and produced some great art. He was somewhat panned by critics for it but his following was so solid most dismissed the critics. Even Hollywood stars would ask for artwork from him. This is a true story, on a break in filming the show he got a phone call and no one would tell him who it was until he took the call. It was Marlon Brando. He asked Bob to do an original work for him. I believe he did it and had him donate to public television as opposed to being paid. He never sold his work directly but many were put up for auction to help PBS stations. Some Hollywood stars have some of them and refuse to sell them as they deem them works they love and they were painted by a man they greatly admired.
Oh and just to let you know, if you do see this, I did see you recommend this video to me in Adam The Woo's live stream today (12/13/17). It's a great one. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thank you so much for watching.you just taught me a lot I didn't know about Bob Ross. That Marlon Brando story is amazing. I really do appreciate you checking this out I really enjoyed that day it was just pure excitement.
Critics are just babbling baboons.
Bob Ross the Legend who lives on in the hearts of many including mine. Gone too soon !!
He is awesome Gone way too soon! thank you for watching my friend :-)
This man was a true legend, he impacted so many, making them so happy. He made his show, not for the money, but to entertain people. He truly was a great man, as kind as he was generous. For, in life, take this quote to heart. “There are no mistakes, just happy accidents.”
Thank you for coming to my memorial service.
Tampa Jay, thank you for this. I wish you a great day, afternoon, evening, morning, whatever.
I live in the UK, we also used to watch him paint, he was amazing. Because of him I started painting, RIP Bob.
A gift from Bob himself!🙏🙏 True blessing!
Woloud Books thank you so much for watch my friend :)
@@TampaJay You're welcome!
Wow this is so great. Love Bob Ross and loved hearing these stories about him. Painting truly changed him, and his painting changed and inspired so many others. How cool that you were there on his bday too, and his brother being there. Meaningful and beautiful. That photo is something to treasure.
Super Enthused thank you for watching and for your awesome comment. I was so happy to be in the right place at the right time. Bob was a big inspiration in my life when I was a little kid. I'm really thankful for that moment
He’s been a great inspiration to me

Home In The Sticks He was a magician with a paintbrush Dan. I still love watching Jim paint. I'm glad I could share this with you. Thanks for watching buddy
"You can be whoever you want to be in here!" Lets draw som little trees, and a big strong tree Right here!" What a joy he was to watch.
I live in Canada, but whoever lives near this cemetary, please take turns putting beautiful flowers in the vase. I wish his grave had been under a tree.. he loved trees. RIP Bob, thankyou for your service, and the beautiful paintings. 💛
Hey brother I love Bob Ross May his legacy live on forever God Bless you bro ps just added this video to my favorites list

Awesome! Would have loved to have met Bob in person; such a lovely guy!!!
Such an amazing artist! He was truly inspirational

“We don’t make mistakes just happy little accidents”
Bob Ross truly was an amazing man he painted to show greatness within yourself
So true my friend :) Thank you for watching.
That one got me right in the feels.... Good memories of that show!
Thumbs up!
Jim Adams thanks for watching Jim I'm glad that you enjoyed it
Now he lives peacefully amongst the happy little trees.
That is totally awesome. Thanks for sharing and I will keep watching. Godspeed Mr.Ross. You are truly missed sir. Heaven gained one heck of an angel. Shine down on us sir.
I visited Bob's grave today using the landmarks you roughly provided in your video. Bob is buried in Section 0. You'll see a sign on a pole stating Section O and this sign is visible from the street. His final resting place is six gravesites to the left of the sign and he's located just three rows back. I didn't see any recent flowers only a faded dollar store American flag and a glass jar filled with pennies. I have my first authentic Bob Ross paint brush I ever bought when I was a kid. I plan to encase it in glass and place it on his grave. We love you Bob. Thanks for inspiring us young painters.
Wow great story and his tombstone looks so cool! RIP Bob!
Thank you my friend.
Bob was such a beautiful human with a wonderful personality😔💓
Thank you bob for showing me the way to painting, RIP.
Thank you for watching my friend. Bob Ross has inspired me so much

Thankyou for this it’s strange but yesterday I watched the documentary and that was the first time I actually heard he had passed away maybe I just wanted to not know …. He was a great man and the world is less happy without him …. RIP Bob thanks for all the painting lessons 💔
Such a simple grave, for such an awesome man!
I *LOVE* the fact you respected him the way you did!
New Tampa Jay tradition?...

Wow. What an amazing experience and honor. Bob Ross made so many people happy for so long (and still does!) We don't make mistakes, just happy accidents!
Captain Quisp He was a very positive and humble man. Inspired me so much when I was a little kid. I was so happy I could share this I’ll never forget that moment. Thank you captain
After watching Bob for roughly fifteen years, I finally bought his painting kit. I was newly sober after two decades of hard drinking. I did a few paintings that were one step above a "Mud Mixer", but got to experience the "Joy of Painting". I still watch videos of William Alexander, and Bob, and am forever grateful for them! : )
you see that cloud , yup!! he is not alone up there
rest in piece Bob , your magic will never end.
Wow, that is amazing!!!!
Still sits with me have that photo in my sun visor
Just...wow. This is a great video.
