Ross P. Sangster, 80, of West Side Drive, died peacefully in his sleep in his home on July 21, 2017.

He graduated with the class of 1954 from Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake High School and continued his education at union College where he earned his Bachelor’s degree. Ross was a passionate geologist who worked for NYS Department of Transportation until his retirement in 1993. He was a community man with a desire to make a difference in ways known and unknown. For over 50 years he volunteered as a member of the Ballston Lake Fire Department. Ross enjoyed antique cars and was a member of two local car clubs.
