| 1253 | Brown-Wynne Funeral Home Will Bass August 21, 1931 ? January 15, 2026 Wilben Crawford ?Will? Bass peacefully passed into the next life on January 15, 2026. Will was born in Rosewood, NC, to V.N. and Smithie Bass, the youngest of nine children. After graduating from Goldsboro High School, he went to East Carolina and graduated in 1954 with a degree in Industrial Arts Education. He taught for a year in Hopewell, VA, before being drafted into the Army. Even in the Army, he was a teacher, serving in the Education Center in the Army base in Bamberg, Germany, in 1956 and 1957. A chance encounter with a young woman named Betty Mills on the bus line from Raleigh to Goldsboro and Wilmington led to a lifelong love between the two of them. They were married in 1958 and settled in Raleigh. Within a couple of years, they had moved into their home on Shelley Road, and he was teaching Industrial Arts at Martin Junior High. They became parents in 1961 with the birth of David, and their family grew again in 1964 when Paul was born. When Will decided he wanted to get out of teaching in the early 1970s, he went to night classes and summer school at UNC-Chapel Hill to get his Master's of Education degree. He then went to work for the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction as a Title 1 administrator until his retirement in 1987. Will viewed his retirement as a time to become more active with the things that interested him the most. He and Betty traveled in the US, Canada, and Europe, and he continued to travel after her death - sometimes with friends, sometimes with family, and sometimes solo. He became intrigued with creating with Plexiglas and other acrylic materials - everything from bird feeders to nameplates to wildlife carvings, starting a hobby that turned into a craft business. He was deeply interested in photography, capturing scenes from his travels, birds in the backyard, and flowers wherever he found them, especially at the Raulston Arboretum. A charter member of North Raleigh United Methodist Church, he remained an active member of the church for the rest of his life, serving on countless committees, helping to found the JOY seniors group, taking photographs of church events, and being a faithful participant in worship and Sunday School. But more important than what he did was the way he lived. Although aphasia hindered his speech for his final years, his mind and memory remained sharp, and his spirit of curiosity and creativity never wavered. He treated everyone he met with kindness, empathy, and respect, no matter who they were or what their station in life. He found a way to make a connection and find some common ground with everyone, and greeted everyone with a smile and an open heart. He was always encouraging and would lovingly support you as you found your own path through life, rather than trying to impose his idea of what your path should be. He truly made the world a kinder and better place each day. Will is survived by his son David and wife Julie of Raleigh, son Paul and his wife Lyn of Newcastle, Maine; his grandchildren Drew (and wife Tori), Allison (and husband Gary), and Tally, his great-grandchildren Jack and Ruby, many nieces, nephews, and extended family, and the many friends he made throughout his life. Special thanks to the staff at Magnolia Glen, who loved and cared for him while he was a resident, and to the doctors, nurses, and staff at Rex Hospital, who always provided compassionate care for him during each of his visits. Funeral is at 1 PM on Thursday, January 22, at North Raleigh United Methodist Church, 8501 Honeycutt Rd., with reception to follow. The service is available for live or later viewing at www.nrumc.org/livestream. | Bass, Wilben Crawford (I8485)

Casper ? 25 June 2024 James Raymond Bassett James Raymond (Jim) Bassett, 84, of Casper, WY took a leisurely evening ride on his motorcycle June 24, 2024 with no destination in mind.

Finally, in 1976, Jim got his wish to have a second daughter. He was very proud of all of his children and supported them mightily in all of their endeavors. Jim opened Mountain Surveying in 1976.

He was united with his sister Joyce at his high school graduation. They were close until her death on Jan 9, 1982. It has always bother Steve that he was unable to locate his younger brother Kenny. He finally accepted the fact that he did not realize he was adopted as he was only four years old. They were both adopted from the Annie Wittenmyer Orphanage in Davenport, Ia. in May 1947. Steve was raised on the East side of the state of Iowa. Kenny is believed to have been raised on the West side of the state of Iowa around Sioux City. Steve?s adoptive parents were: Theodore W & Mabel Bassett. He spent his whole life serving the Lord through his gospel music; He was saved at a Billy Graham Concert at the age of 8 years old. Steve graduated from Edgewood High School, Edgewood, Iowa on May 16, 1957. He was always proud that his diploma was presented to him by his father who was president of the school board. He was secretary of his high school senior class. Steve was in the Jr ROTC in high school for the Navy. Upon graduation from high school he was accepted into the Air Force. He used to say for one day he was in two branches of the service. Steve served his county from 1957 until 1967. He was stationed in Coos Bay, Oregon. He was a navigator flying many missions. His nickname "Steve" came during his time in the Air Force. He always wore a white scarf around his neck which simulated a character in the comics, Steve Canyon. At first they called him Capt. Canyon and later that was dropped and it became "Steve". Steve then spent 20 years as a coast to coast truck driver. Next Steve attended college in Colorado for law enforcement. He then worked on the Governor?s Law Enforcement Task Force. He had to retire from this in 1992 due to the onset of glaucoma. He then came to Missouri to pursue his career with his gospel singing. He followed Billy Graham and worked with him bringing special music to his services. He also did nursing home ministries and sang at other functions all his life. When it made it to Branson he sang with Barbara Fairchild and then the Blackwood Brothers. He soon found out he preferred to sing as a soloist. He then moved on to the travel business which he had a partner. He and his best friend, Russ had tours to many places including Branson and the Holy Land. His dream was to take Sue to the Holy Land before he passed. We did not make it though. He met Sue (the love of his life) in the winter of 2004. They immediately were drawn together after just a few months. She told him their meeting was ?Divine Intervention?. She later told him her last name was Divine.

| 1282 | Cargain Funeral Homes Inc. ? Mahopac ? 20 January 2026 Lucia Bass Lucia Bass, a vibrant and loving soul, passed away peacefully on January 19, 2026, at the age of 81. Born on October 29, 1944, in the Bronx, NY, Lucia was the cherished daughter of the late John and Mary (Tonti) Polizzi. Her life was a tapestry of love, friendship, and unwavering faith that touched everyone who knew her. Lucia's heart was a wellspring of love, a love that was most profoundly shared with her late husband, Donald, whom she married on September 18, 1993. Their union was a testament to love's enduring power, a love that continued to guide her even after Donald's passing in 2018. Lucia was also preceded in death by her brother John, whose memories remained a cherished part of her life. Those who will carry Lucia's legacy forward include her devoted son, Dominick and her daughter-in-law, Ann Marie as well as her daughter, Danielle. She was a proud and adoring grandmother to Logan. Her stepson Michael and step-grandchildren Amanda, Brandon and Ryan, will forever hold dear the warmth and joy she brought into their lives. Each family member was a precious jewel in the crown of her life, and she treasured every moment spent with them. Lucia's professional life was marked by dedication and service, hallmarks of her character that extended well beyond her personal pursuits. Her work history and association involvement were characterized by the same passion and commitment she brought to all aspects of her life. She found joy and purpose in her career, and her colleagues will remember her for her spirited presence and friendly demeanor. An avid fan of Yankee baseball, Lucia's enthusiasm for the game was infectious. She was equally passionate about literature, often found with a book in hand, and her love for fuzzy socks was well known among her friends and family. Lucia was a social butterfly, gracefully fluttering from one social gathering to another, leaving a trail of laughter and fond memories in her wake. Family, friends, and faith formed the cornerstone of Lucia's world. Her life was a beautiful reflection of these priorities, and she nurtured each relationship with care and affection. Lucia's spirit was a beacon of light, her friendly nature, spirited energy, and loving heart made her a beloved figure in the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing her. Lucia Bass lived a life that was rich in experiences and abundant in love. She will be profoundly missed, yet her spirit will continue to inspire those who were blessed to have known her.

| 1293 | Chadwick?s History of Shelby County, Indiana James H. Nail Shelby county boasts of no older and no more highly respected family than that of the Nails. They were the pioneer of pioneers, coming here when settlements were few and far between: neighbors several days? ride from each other, and the whole face of the country covered by the primeval forests. The first-comers and their descendants have always occupied honorable positions among their fellow citizens, helped materially in the agricultural development of the county, and were splendid types of the kind of men that it take to make a state out of raw materials. Though the family originated in Germany they have been identified with the United States from a period antedating the Declaration of Independence. Henry Nail, the emigrant founder, who was born in the German Fatherland in 1771, came three years later with his parents to Pennsylvania. In 1776 they migrated to Rowan county, North Carolina, where a settlement was made and a home established. In 1799 Henry was married to Mary Keller, a native of Pennsylvania, and in 1824 brought his family to Indiana, finding a location in Shelby county on land purchased from the government. With Henry Nail came his son, Samuel, who was fifteen years old when they reached this newest of the northwestern states. Samuel Nail, the most noted of the family connection, was born in Rowan county, North Carolina, September 1, 1809. He remained with his parents until he was twenty-two years old, and then took one of man?s most important steps in the world by marrying. The lady of his choice was Cherry Wray, a typical pioneer girl, who knew how to spin and weave, make clothes for the family out of home-produced material, and do the other useful things essential in a woman who was the be the wife of a first settler. She was born in Virginia, September 30, 1813, her parents being James and Tabitha (Bass) Wray, who came to Shelby county in 1822. James Wray, who was born in Virginia January 13, 1787, became a minister of the Gospel and was a member of these sturdy soldiers of the cross known as the pioneer preachers. Tabitha Bass, who shared his hardships as well as his triumphs in the trying times of the western settlement, was a native of North Carolina. Samuel Nail became one of the most successful farmers and most extensive land owners of the county. His holdings included four hundred and twenty acres in Brandywine township, sixty acres in Addison township, some property in Fairland, and eighty acres in Missouri. He and his wife were charter members of the old Protestant Methodist church in Brandywine township, and were regarded as pillars of the faith during their long and useful lives. For many years it was the custom of the children to hold family reunions to celebrate the union or natal days of their parents, and these were occasions long to be remembered as evidencing the sincere affection and high esteem in which this fine old couple were held. James H. Nail, perhaps the best known of the children, was born in Addison township, Shelby county, Indiana, December 25, 1844. He helped clear away some of the forest on this father?s land and knows at first hand what it meant to be the child of a pioneer farmer in Shelby county. When nineteen years old he enlisted in the famous Seventieth Regiment, Indiana Volunteer Infantry, commanded by Benjamin Harrison in the beginning, and with this command took part in the battles of Kenesaw Mountain, Pumpkin Vine Creek, Resaca, Peach Tree Creek and Atlanta, besides many hot skirmishes, like that at New Hope church. After his muster out in 1865 he returned to the old home farm in Addison township, and resumed the peaceful occupation of tilling the soil. He has been twice married, but had no children by the first union. December 30, 1883, he married Mary, daughter of Henry and Matilda (Muir) Howe, who was born and reared in Indianapolis. After his marriage Mr. Nail engaged in farming on his own account. He first bought a small place of thirty-three acres in Brandywine township, to which he has added from time to time until he owns now about one hundred and thirty acres of good farming land. In 1893 he purchased a house of South street, in Shelbyville, to which he removed for a residence, having retired from active farming pursuits. Later he acquired various pieces of property in Shelbyville, and has since devoted most of his attention to looking after the same. In 1907 he bought a house at No. 36 North Tompkins street, in which he is making his present home. Politically he has always been a Republican. When General Harrison was inaugurated President Mr. Nail has the honor of acting as escort to his olde commander of Civil war days. He is a member of Dumont Post, Grand Army of the Republic, at Shelbyville. He and his wife are members of the Presbyterian church, and always interested in its religious and missionary work. | Nail, James H. (I8712)
