Please join us in celebrating the life and legacy of Myra Mattes Ross, Green Chimneys Co-Founder.
On Thursday, March 28, 2019, Myra Ross died peacefully at the home of her daughter in Las Vegas, NV. Anyone who had the pleasure of knowing Myra understood her commitment to children, education and Green Chimneys. For over six decades Myra served as Clinical Coordinator and Director of Admissions here, intricately helping to build the foundation Green Chimneys thrives on today. Thirteen months prior, we celebrated the life of Myra’s husband and Green Chimneys Founder Samuel B. Ross, Jr. Now we’re extending our sincere sympathy to the Ross family once again. Our hearts are with the Rosses’ children, son Donald, daughter Lisa, daughter-in-law Mary, and granddaughters Samantha and Sara.

Lance is one of three llamas that joined the barn in 2019. He quickly gained the reputation of being the biggest thinker; he will not do anything unless he has had the chance to think about it first. When Lance first arrived at Green Chimneys, he developed a connection with a farm intern who guided him through clicker and pack training. Over time, Lance became more confident and willing.
