There are two accepted forms for possessive singular nouns ending in s:

Add an apostrophe (') after the existing s at the end of the word: Ross' friends

Add an apostrophe s ('s) after the existing s at the end of the word: Ross's friends

EXAMPLES

I met Ross' friends Bob and Jim at the skating rink.

I met Ross's friends Bob and Jim at the skating rink.

Note: The -s's is the most commonly used form, but if you are a student, use the form that is preferred by your teacher.
