\nIt is with deep sadness that Marilyn Agency announces the passing of one of its long-time employees, Michael Ross. Michael\u2019s playful spirit and fashion expertise will be greatly missed by his friends, family and colleagues\u2026
\nDetails of his memorial service will be forthcoming.<\/p>\n

I have known Michael since 1998 and enormously enjoyed working with him every single day. Michael was the nicest, most sensitive person, even if sometimes he could be hot tempered, he cooled down quickly. The entire Marilyn family, the models and the clients loved and respected his expertise and hard work. The fashion world was his playground and the models he worked with benefitted from his passion.<\/p>\n

We love you, Michael. We miss you.
\n–Marilyn Gauthier<\/em><\/p>\n

From the beginning, Michael was a friend as well as an agent, who together with the whole Marilyn team made me believe that a modeling career could be possible for me. He was very realistic and always had great respect for my personal ambitions. I was very proud of his personal growth within the business upon my return to NY in 2008. I will always bring him along with me in my thoughts, with his light and almost child-like smile.”
\n–Caroline Ribeiro<\/em><\/p>\n

He was like my older brother. When I first arrived in New York, my English was poor, but he always conversed with me and patiently helped me with my enunciation. He was like my teacher, giving me much advice and reminders, so I could face my work in New York with ease. He was my friend, joking around with me on our days off, making funny faces for me, giving me joy. But now he has left us.<\/p>\n

His cute mustache is still in the photos in my cellphone. His unique voice is still ringing in to my ears. The lessons he taught me still linger within my mind. Let us remember his name \u2013 Michael. May he continue to smile in heaven, and not have to answer so many phone calls, not be so busy. Instead, he can sit comfortably in heaven and watch a performance by the angels.<\/p>\n

Rest in peace, my dearest Michael!\u201d

(In French) Personne ne m\u00e9rite de partir si jeune, encore moins notre cher Michael. Une personne incroyable, remplie d’amour, qui ne demandait qu’\u00e0 aimer, aider et partager son bonheur avec le monde. Tu nous manques terriblement \u00e0 tous mais nous savons que dans ce magnifique paradis maintenant tu te trouves. Tu resteras grav\u00e9 dans nos coeurs \u00e0 jamais… Repose en paix.”
