McNeill-Legacy Funeral Home ? 21 September 2024
Alpha Bass

Alpha Bass was born on October 3, 1927 and passed away September 20, 2024, surrounded by loving family. She was preceded in death by her husband, James, and two of her sons, Jerry and Steve. She is survived by 8 remaining children: Ronald (Erin) and their three daughters, Sharon (James) and their three children, Deborah (Morris) and their two daughters, David and his daughter, Don (Kim) and his two daughters, James Benjamin and his three children, Timothy and his three sons, and Mary and her three children, along with many great grandchildren and a few great great grandchildren.
Mrs. Alpha Bass looked forward to every holiday and family gathering. Her home was often full of family members coming together to celebrate anything from Easter to just a good Sunday afternoon together. She enjoyed seeing her loved ones gathered together, and she spent a lot of time snuggling babies and reading books, such as The Pokey Little Puppy, to the younger kids.
Mrs. Bass supported her family with her bookkeeping job that she would eventually retire from. She continuously showed her family her hardworking and persevering nature in all that she did, but especially in the way she cared for others. She had a song or a rhyme for almost every occasion, and you could often find her in her kitchen singing something you couldn?t find on a radio. She would not stand for any rude or crass behavior, and would set someone straight with a stern look and her mouth in a firm line. Even when her hearing wasn?t always the best, she enjoyed being surrounded by the conversations that flowed from the people she loved just being in her presence.
Alpha Bass could name almost every plant, and she kept a beautiful and extensive garden for many years. She took great joy in making things thrive, something that extended to the people around her. She kept aloe plants in her house that could almost magically take away the pain of any scrapes, stings, and burns from anyone who was at her home.
She was an active and involved member of her church. She taught a Sunday School class for several decades, served on various committees, and spent much of her free time visiting shut-ins at their homes and nursing homes, as well as volunteering at the Gray?s Creek Christian Center until she was no longer able to do so. Her life is a testimony of love and service to all who knew her.

Regenta Bsss Jenkins (Picture included)
October 11, 1917 ? January 19, 2018

Regenta Bass Jenkins, mother of James O. Jenkins, Jr., and his wife Gail, died on January 19, 2018, in Brenham, Texas, at the age of 100.
She was born October 11, 1917, in Hopeville, Calhoun County, Arkansas, the first child of Egbert Garland Bass and Eula Ramsay Bass. Her paternal great grandfather, Doctor Bass, was one of the first settlers of Calhoun County, and a founder of the town of Chambersville. Her maternal great grandfather, Squire Allison Ramsay, was one of the founders of the town of Princeton and Dallas County, Arkansas.
After graduation from Parkers Chapel High School, El Dorado, Arkansas, she attended Henderson State Teachers College in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, and received her BS degree from Stephen F. Austin State College in Nacogdoches, Texas. Upon finishing college, she became active in her father?s lumber company in East Texas where she remained until her marriage to James O. Jenkins, at which time she became a full time homemaker. After the birth of her son, James O. Jenkins, Jr. and the declining health of her husband, she became a teacher in the Vidor, Texas school system, where she remained until her retirement in 1985, having completed 31 years at the school. She taught middle school Texas history and geography, and loved to visit and read about locations featured in her classes.
She lived in Beaumont, Texas for more than 50 years, and she and her brother Harroll took care of their mother, Eula Bass, there for the last 21 years of her life. Family lore was that they must have done a good job because Eula Bass lived to be almost 106 years old, and was only ill for the last month of her life. In 2007, a few years after their mother?s death, she and her brother Harroll moved to Brenham, Texas, to be close to her son and daughter in law.
Regenta had three great loves: family, reading and travel. She treasured time with family members, young and old. She loved family reunions in Arkansas, and especially Easter and Thanksgiving celebrations in various family locations in Texas. She outlived all her siblings, cousins and friends, but enjoyed spending time with younger relatives in her later years.
Regenta?s other two loves were travel and reading. She customarily traveled with her son James in the summers during her teaching career. In addition to Arkansas, they often took driving trips through the South, although they also ventured up and down the East Coast, from Florida to New York. After James and Gail married, the three of them, along with her brother, Harroll, took frequent trips. In addition to visiting prior locations, they traveled to North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C. They flew to Sun Valley, Idaho for 10 days, where they enjoyed seeing the beautiful Northwest U.S. They also took a two week trip to England and Scotland where they enjoyed seeing where her relatives originated near Edinburgh, Scotland. She and her brother Harroll had a lot of energy on trips. On the European trip, James and Gail were exhausted after the flight to London and had to nap, while Regenta and Harroll spent the afternoon walking through Hyde Park and seeing Buckingham Palace and the changing of the guards. In 2007, Regenta, her two brothers and sister all met in Williamsburg, Virginia, and toured Jamestown during the celebration of the 400th anniversary of the first English settlement in America.
Regenta loved to read books and collected quite a personal library. She enjoyed biographies and historical novels, but loved mysteries most of all. She adored a good used book sale, especially the Fortnightly book sale in Brenham. She said she had hit the jackpot with her daughter in law Gail, who loved books as much as she did. She was a book of the month club member for decades and enjoyed visiting book stores everywhere she traveled. She always left extra room in her luggage ?just in case? she bought some books.
Regenta is survived by her son, James O. Jenkins, Jr., and his wife, Gail, of Brenham, Texas; niece, Kathy Bass Miller of Huntsville, Texas; four nephews: Keith Harroll Bass, and wife, Grace, of Huntsville, Texas; Kyle Ray Bass of Fischer, Texas; Rev. Bert E. Lyle, III, and wife, Susie, of Huntsville, Texas; Frank Lyle, and wife, Julie, of Argyle, Texas; six great nephews and six great nieces; three great, great nephews, and three great, great nieces. She was preceded in death by her parents, her sister Eula Mae Lyle Tynes, and brothers, Egbert Harroll Bass and Hubert Allison Bass, as well as infant brother Cullen Bass.
Regenta was a member of the First United Methodist Church, Brenham, Texas. She became a Methodist early in life and was an active member for the rest of her life, until her health declined.
A graveside service will be held at Temperance Hill Cemetery, Fordyce, Arkansas, on Friday, January 26, 2018, at 1:00 p.m.
The family wishes to thank Bonnie Franke-Flynn and Maria Rodriguez of AMA Home Health Care for the excellent care they provided Regenta during that last several years of her life. They became like family, and she enjoyed their care and companionship.
Remembrances can be made to Temperance Hill Cemetery Association, care of Ruth Harrison, 2018 Parkwood Lane, Fordyce, Arkansas 71742.
Funeral arrangements for Regenta Jenkins are entrusted to Memorial Oaks Chapel, 1306 West Main, Brenham. To post a tribute to the family, visit www.memorialoakschapel.com.

Kalman Bass, 103-Year-Old Decorated WWII Veteran and Entrepreneur
April 6, 1922 ? November 20, 2025

Kalman Bass, beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle, and friend, a decorated World War II Veteran, a Chevalier in the French Legion of Honor, and an accomplished South Florida Entrepreneur, died on November 20, 2025, in Coral Gables at the age of 103, surrounded by his loving family and wife of 79 years, Irma Bass.

Kal lived a full life, leaving his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nephews and nieces with stories and adventures to carry forward. Born in the Bronx, he grew up in Depression Era New York as one of five children. He showed an early talent for engineering, building, and creating.

Kal's patriotic duty to his country led to his enlistment in the United States Army at twenty years old, serving in the Signal Corps as a radioman during the D-Day Normandy invasion. His heroism earned him numerous medals, commendations, and honors. For his bravery in the cause of freedom, the French Government inducted him into the French Legion of Honor, France's highest military and civilian distinction.

After his Honorable Discharge in 1945, Kal married the love of his life, Irma Rehr, in Brooklyn, New York. His post-War working life began in the upholstery business, where he mastered the art of creating and manufacturing furniture.

The newly married couple embarked on their lifetime adventure, settling in South Florida in 1949, where he began his business success, founding a manufacturing company that produces elevator cabs and entrances for buildings throughout the world and is in its third generation of family leadership.

Known for his curiosity, creativity, hardworking spirit, inventiveness, and deep devotion, Kal was a lifelong learner and a devoted family man who continued to captivate those around him with his innovative ideas and interests. He was a Renaissance man in every sense: a voracious reader, a philosopher, an artist, and a lifelong student of the world. His mind was always open, his hands always busy, and his heart always full. Whether sketching a design, sharing a story, or offering a thoughtful word, he brought wisdom, humor, and warmth to those around him.

He took immense pride in his family and found great joy in the company of his wife of 79 years, four children, Lynn Kislak (Ben Kuehne), Barbara Bass Bakar (Gerson Bakar z"l), Susan Hunter, and Jay Bass (Kathy), eight grandchildren, Rebecca Kislak (Joanna Brown), Jason Kislak (Kathryn), Eric Hunter z"l, Janine Hunter Dillman (Neal), Jeffrey Bass (Rina), Kathryn Bass O'Brien (Doug), David Bass, Andrew Bass (Sinead Morris), and thirteen great-grandchildren.

Kal leaves behind a legacy not only in the businesses he built but in the lives he shaped and the love he shared. He and his wife, long-time supporters of Baptist Health Foundation, shared a vision to provide hope and healing to as many people as possible in their community and beyond. Together they established four endowed chairs supporting the clinical research work of Baptist Health physicians in cancer and neurologic care. These include the Kalman Bass Endowed Chair in Skin Cancer at Baptist Health Miami Cancer Institute, the Irma and Kalman Bass Endowed Chair in Clinical Neuroscience, the Kalman Bass Endowed Chair in Pain & Rehabilitative Medicine, and the Irma Bass Endowed Chair in Stroke Neurology at Baptist Health Miami Neuroscience Institute.

Donations in his memory may be made in support of Miami Cancer Institute at BaptistHealth.net/Giving.

A Memorial Service and shiva for family and friends will be held at the Gables Club, 10 Edgewater Drive, Coral Gables, 33133, on Sunday, November 23, 2025, at Noon ? 3:00 p.m.

John Boyd Bassett
December 15, 1931 ? January 9, 2024

John Boyd Bassett, 92, of Pueblo, Colorado passed away on Tuesday the 9th of January 2024.
John was born on December 15, 1931, to parents Ellsworth Leroy Bassett and Lillian Bassett in Rocky Ford, Colorado. His dad was a carpenter for a bridge and highway contractor, and the family moved all over the West working on projects. During this period, he and his brothers attended many different schools. John was entrusted to drive the school bus his senior year at Rye High School, even though he was only seventeen years old. After graduating from Rye High School in 1950, he went on to study at Pueblo Community College, where he later became a member of the advisory committee with their Building Construction Education Program.
On January 24, 1951, John married his high school sweetheart, Mabel May Williams in Rye Colorado. John and Mabel went on to have four children, John E., Kenneth, Daniel, and Pamela.
In April 1952 he volunteered for the U.S. Marine Corps and served with the Fleet Pacific Distributing Pay Department. Back then, the Marines were paid in cash, and he loved to tell stories about going to remote bases with a big satchel of cash and a pistol on his hip to hand out payroll. John left the Marines in 1954 with an honorable discharge and the rank of Corporal.
He started his first job in 1946 as a truck driver and laborer for Brown Construction Company who was a heavy and highway contractor. After his stint with Brown, he steadily worked his way up the ranks to superintendent with other contractors. In 1960 he joined Bassett Construction Co. of Pueblo, CO with his brothers Walter and Robert. During his twenty-five years at Bassett Construction, Co. he was at first a foreman, then superintendent, then Project Manager, and finally VP of Field Operations. He was involved in a multitude of construction projects in southern Colorado. You can?t drive around Pueblo without passing dozens of commercial and institutional buildings that he helped build. Just as importantly, he left a lasting legacy by mentoring family and coworkers in the construction trade.
In 1988 John retired from Bassett Construction Co. and spent his time with his wife Mabel raising cattle, and chickens, and growing hay and peaches. Their visits with their grandchildren and great-grandchildren are special memories. They also enjoyed their RV club and traveled around the country. One of their favorite places was Aransas Pass, TX where they could enjoy the warm weather, oysters, and fishing. Some of the people they met along their travels became longtime friends.
John was preceded in death by his parents, Ellsworth Leroy Bassett and Lillian Bassett; and brothers, Walter and Robert; along with two daughters-in-law, Donna and Debby. He is survived by his wife of almost 73 years, Mabel May Bassett; sons, John E. Bassett and his wife Elaine, Kenneth Bassett, and Daniel Bassett and his wife Rhonda; daughter, Pamela Bassett-Weaver and her husband Steve Weaver; grand-children, John Brent, Chad, Scott, Michael, Daric, Corry, and Justin Bassett, Erica Brown, Clayton Weaver, and Stacy Schoonover; great grand-children, Conner, Evelyn, Cole, Owen, Aspen, Harley, Kyleigh, and Chase Bassett, Wyatt, and Grace Brown, Hunter, and Hudson Weaver, Sarah, Patricia, and Kathrine Schoonover; and a host of devoted nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
The funeral service will be at 11 a.m. Wednesday, January 17, 2024, in the Montgomery & Steward Chapel. Interment, Roselawn Cemetery.

Robert M. Bassett, 76 (Picture included)

Bob passed away in the early morning hours of July 27, 2016.

He ended a long bout of pancreatic cancer by his own hand, using his pain medications, when he could no longer eat and had become very weak. Bob spent his last night on a beautiful sagebrush-covered hill above town in the company of two friends, talking and reading aloud some of his favorite poems. He was in good spirits and claimed to be physically comfortable. As the morning light began to rise, he casually stated that the time had come to "get on with it," and began taking his medications, never displaying the slightest sign of apprehension as his end approached.

Bob was born to Hugh Gale and Gertrude Bassett in Alhambra, California, on June 28, 1940. He moved to Montana with his family and graduated high school in Missoula. He served on active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps for almost four years beginning in June 1958 and was discharged with a Good Conduct Award. While on reserve status he began studies at the University of Montana, but did not immediately go on to graduation. His college education was gained in three separate episodes, and he graduated at the age of 45, majoring in the Russian language with a 3.9 GPA and a President's Recognition Award.

Bob met his future wife, Sonya Blevins in 1986 while studying Russian at the university. They subsequently worked together at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, Russia during three periods from 1990 until 2008, living in Missoula and then Butte during the interim periods. Bob and Sonya were together for 25 years until their divorce in 2011. They remained good friends until Bob's recent death. Sonya currently lives in Guangzhou, China where she works at the U.S. Consulate. Bob received a Franklin Award for his service at the U.S. Russian Embassy.

Bob enjoyed playing chess and backpacking in the mountains. The beauty of the wild Montana landscape and the living creatures it shelters were his spiritual touchstone. Writing was the main preoccupation of his life. Two novels, "Song of Isaac" and "Blue Shift" were his most notable works.

Bob was a gentle, kind, generous and highly intelligent man, a political idealist and a peace activist. He was a volunteer for the Foster Grandparents program.

Sue Folawn of San Mateo, California is Bob's surviving sister.

Bob's friends will be holding a potluck memorial for him at 6 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 10, at the home of George Waring and Mary Kay Craig, 518 W. Granite St. Anyone who wishes to come is welcome. Any enquiries can be made to Don Vance, 406-498-4683.
