| 2116 | Pearson Funeral Home, 27 June 2025 Jo Ann Bassett Campbell Jo Ann Bassett Campbell died on May 31, 2025 at Norton Clark Hospital in Jeffersonville, Indiana at the age of 89. She is survived by her adopted daughter Whitney Campbell, her sister Betty Carrol Bassett Bruton and her nephews G. Macaulay Bruton and wife Wendy Satmary, Ian C. Bruton (Chuckie) and wife Silvana Bruton, her niece and nephew, Wendy Campbell and Tom Campbell as well as her extended family Ian Grant Bruton, David Bruton, Ariel Macaulay Bruton, Katherine Bruton, Cienna, Ari and Macie Mae. A longtime Louisville resident, Jo Ann was born on November 14, 1935 in San Antonio Texas to Elizabeth Earthman Bassett and Charles Carroll Bassett. Charles and Elizabeth later moved to Louisville to live in the Highlands on the edge of Cherokee Park. Though Charles and Elizabeth struggled like most couples, Jo Ann's happiness, joy, and loving nature shined through her infectious smile, as a toddler, a youth, and continued on throughout her life. Jo Ann married Dr. Peter C. Campbell, Jr. (Pete) in August of 1958. She supported Pete from the time they met, including through his training at the University of Louisville Medical School, followed by his service in the United States Air Force as a flight surgeon in the Strategic Air Command to his very successful career as a prominent Louisville Opthomologist. Pete held board appointments in local organizations and Chief of Staff positions in local hospitals, was Vice-Speaker of the House of the Kentucky Medical Association for six years, Speaker of the House for an additional six years, and was a partner at one of Louisville's prominent Ophthalmology Medical Groups until his retirement. Jo Ann faithfully supported Pete his entire career as she maintained and established friendships and relationships by entertaining and delivering creative homemade gifts to many friends, associates, and family. She truly represented the old adage, "Behind every great man is a great woman." She remained by Pete's side throughout their marriage which lasted over 61 years. When asked by her grand-nephew A. Mac Bruton what she did to sustain her marriage all those years, she responded, "I was Pete's number one Cheerleader!" Jo Ann was an accomplished cook who would spend up to a week preparing lavish holiday meals to the delight of her family. Her dining room was filled with antiques, lit solely with candles, and her dining room table was always adorned with handmade ornaments, vintage china and ante-bellum silver that she and her husband meticulously collected over the years. During holiday meals she would make each family member's favorite dish, the net result being that there were so many dishes served that a single plate could not hold small samples of each. She grew an extensive garden every year, which often included over 100 tomato plants and fresh vegetables she would often give away or can. Weeks before Christmas, she would start canning hundreds of jars of jams and jellies which would be delivered in baskets with a Christmas arrangement as gifts to 50+ families and friends. Pete took great joy in personally delivering the gift baskets, arriving at someone's doorstep dressed in Christmas colors, a Santa hat and a big grin. Jo Ann, for the most part, single handedly decorated her house for Christmas with a huge tree, a handmade door reef, fresh natural garlands, Santa Claus figures of all shapes and sizes, personalized stockings stuffed with toys, and hand wrapped gifts stuffed high around the 10?15 foot tree (her "Grey Tower" house in Anchorage, KY had 20 foot ceilings) covered in antique ornaments, candy canes and tinsel. Jo Ann had many hobbies, enjoyed children, held classes in ceramics, taught children the art of puppet making, and collected seashells to make pins and flower arrangements for hats. She made dried flower arrangements and raised African Violets plants all of which she sold in her consignment shop on Frankfort Ave which she co-owned with several friends. She helped support her family financially by tirelessly working as the sole landlord of many rental apartment units, buying, selling, renting, cleaning, also providing maintenance and painting. Jo Ann was an exceptionally creative, energetic and giving woman, a loving wife, sister, mother, aunt and friend and embraced all her family with a deep passion. As her life journey on earth came to an end and her strength began to wane, the deaths of her husband Pete in 2019, son Peter C. Campbell III in 2023, and brother Robert Moorman Bassett in 2024 were hard blows, but she always kept her faith in God and the promise of his redemption. As she took her last breath, she smiled. A funeral service to celebrate her life will be held at 12:00 Noon, Saturday, July 12, 2025, at Pearson's, 149 Breckenridge Lane. Burial will follow at Cave Hill Cemetery. Visitation will be held 4:00pm to 7:00pm, Friday, July 11, 2025 also at Pearson's. Arrangements under the direction of Pearson's, "Where Louisville Goes to Remember" | Bassett, Jo Ann (I1813)

Peachie was preceded in death by her parents, George and Gwendolyn Edwards, her husband and the love of her life, Captain Larry W. Bassett, brother-in-law, Norm Alexander, granddaughter, Lindsay Jane Edwards, and her beloved son, Ryan Atherton-Ely, for whom she devotedly and compassionately cared during his battle with brain cancer. She is survived by her sisters, Sherri Alexander, Sheila (Steve) Fitch, and Shelley Edwards; children, Jodi (Christopher) Kelley, David Atherton-Ely, and Tara Vybiral; grandchildren, Shawn Edwards, Adelyn, Derek, and Isabelle Atherton-Ely, Clayton and Ryan Vybiral, Georgia ?Reese?

Peachie is remembered as a loving mother, grandmother, and wife, and a caring friend to many. Peachie was a member of the Canton Loyal Order of the Moose Lodge 429 and enjoyed several years hosting luncheons for the ladies of the Red Hat Society. She enjoyed many activities, including playing Euchre and Poker, dancing, cooking, picnicking, listening to Elvis and country music, making casino trips, camping, and spending time with family and friends. One of Peachie?s favorite things to do was accompany her dear husband, Captain Larry, on his boat, the Sea Dawg, on Lake Ontario. In 2010, Peachie proudly reeled in the 8th largest brown trout in the Lake Ontario Fall Fishing Derby. In 2001, Peachie and Larry set out on the adventure of a lifetime when they drove across the United States and back on their motorcycle. They enjoyed many happy years together as both husband and wife and the very best of friends. Peachie was an exceptional cook who used her talents to express her love for others and bring family and friends together. No matter your age, she insisted on making your favorite meal and baking you a cake for your birthday. She started planning menus for holidays, family celebrations, and the annual Ryan?s Hope Memorial Softball Tournament, played in remembrance of Ryan Atherton-Ely, weeks or even months in advance to ensure everyone was well-fed and good times were had by all. If you?ve ever been to Peachie?s house for dinner, you have food containers in your cupboards from the leftovers she insisted on sending home with you. Peachie never forgot a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or special event, always making sure everyone knew how loved and precious they were to her. Peachie was unmatched in her selfless and sacrificial ways, the embodiment of all that it means to be a mother and grandmother. From rocking newborn babies, attending concerts, plays, and sporting events, showing up with a meal and a helping hand, to traveling across the state to help you get settled into your new home, Peachie was an ever-present bedrock of support, solace, and nurturing care for her family, far and near. Peachie?s life will be honored with a memorial service at the Canton Church of Christ (Disciples of Christ), 170 North Minnequa Avenue, in Canton, PA 17724, on Sunday, June 4, 2023, at 2:30 P.M.

| 2127 | Pike County Chronicle, Missouri, Thursday, 29 February 1940 Mrs. William Bass Takes Own life Wednesday Widow Was Despondent Since Husband?s Death in November, 1939 Mrs. Florence Bass died yesterday morning at 11:45 o?clock from the result of swallowing poison, self-administered. Mrs. Bass was found a few minutes after nine o?clock by Carr Davis, and employe of the Bass Plumbing Co., as he returned from the post office. Mr. Davis said he walked through the living room calling Mrs. Bass. Hearing laborious breathing he went into her bedroom, and found her lying on the bed. He called to her, but received no answer. He telephoned Mrs. Sam Weber, a friend and neighbor of Mrs. Bass, and then called a physician. Mrs. Weber notified Mrs. Dean Craft, another close friend of the deceased. At Mrs. Craft?s home were Mrs. Blanche Christy, daughter of Mrs. Bass, and her three children, Beal, Billie and Bobbie. Mrs. Christy had arrived from California Tuesday afternoon to make her permanent home with her mother. The children had previously lived with Mrs. Bass. At an inquest Wednesday afternoon at Haley?s mortuary several witnesses stated that Mrs. Bass had been gravely despondent since the death of her husband, William Bass on Nov. 29th. She had mentioned the futility of living since her husband?s death on several occasions to her grandchildren, and friends, Mrs. Annie Bell, Mrs. Weber and Mrs. Craft. She also had brought the subject up to Mr. Dick, and Mrs. Christy testified her mother mentioned several subjects pertaining to death Tuesday evening. Yesterday morning Mrs. Bass insisted that her daughter and grandchildren call on Mrs. Weber and Mrs. Craft since they had not seen Mrs. Christy for a long time. The grandchildren and Mrs. Christy testified that Mrs. Bass was in excellent humor expressing gratitude that the family was re-united. She did not seem despondent or melancholy as she had the evening before. She insisted on her daughter and grandchildren coming back at 11 o?clock to prepare lunch for themselves. Mrs. Christy said it was 9:05 o?clock when they left, and she and her children did not see her mother again until several minutes later when they were notified to come home at once. Beal Dick, Mrs. Bass? grandson who arrived two week?s ago from California to make his home with his grandmother and his sisters and brother, found an empty glass in the bathroom basin, from which his grandmother evidently drank. The attending physician testified the contents must have been a preparation of creosote. He administered an antidote and heart stimulant, but to no avail. The empty bottle was found in the furnace with the label burned off, by Beal, who testified he had seen the bottle and its contents in the desk of the late William Bass. It was learned that this medicine preparation had been used by him in the treatment of asthma, and was dealy poison. Beal said the bottle was approximately three-fourths full when he had last seen it. A jury of six men at the inquest gave the verdict that the deceased came to death by swallowing poison self-administered. Surviving Mrs. Bass are: Mrs. Blanche Christy, adopted daughter, and three children by her first marriage by her first marriage, Beal Dick, Miss Billie Dick and Bobbie Dick. The three children had made their home with Mrs. Bass for fourteen years, except Beal who lived in California with his mother for the last two years. Also surviving Mrs. Bass are two sisters, Mrs. Genette Hodson of Purcell, Mo., and Mrs. Geneva Buckner of Anderson, Calif. Mrs. Bass? body was taken to the Haley mortuary where funeral services will be held Friday afternoon at 2:30 o?clock with the Rev. E.E. Morrow officiating. Mrs. Florence Bass was born in a farming community near Webb City, Mo., Dec. 9, 1875 to George and Flora Hotckiss Stroupe. She was married to William bass, a native of Louisiana, on April 18, 1900. Five years later she and her husband moved here, where Mr. Bass was engaged in the plumbing and heating business. Mrs. Bass was of the Quaker faith. After her father?s death her mother, Mrs. Stroupe moved here, and later married the father of Mr. Bass. | Stroup, Florence (I37)

| 2139 | Portrait & Biographical Album of Mahaska Co., Iowa, 1887 Robert Bass, b. 9 May 1827, d. 25 May 1909 ROBERT BASS resides upon section 31, Monroe Township, and is numbered among the earliest settlers of Mahaska County. He is the son of W. L. and Margaret (Roberts) Bass, and was born in Boone County, Ky., May 9, 1827. The family moved to Indiana when Robert was but a year old, where they remained till 1843. They then came to Iowa and located in Van Buren County, whence in 1847, they came to Mahaska County, where the mother died in 1883 and the father in 1885. Robert Bass, the subject of this sketch, was reared upon a farm, receiving his education in the pioneer schools of Indiana and Iowa. he cane to Mahaska County in 1845, some two years before his parents, and for almost half a century has been an honored citizen here. Mr. Bass has been twice married. His first wife was Miss Mary A. Roberts, a daughter of James L. and Rebecca (Coulson) Roberts. Of this union there are four children: Rosa R., the wife of W. E. Stringer, and John A. are residents of Kansas; Eldora and Eva are deceased. The mother of these children died in 1863. The second wife of our subject was Martha Allgood, a native of Indiana, born in 1838. They were united in marriage July 4, 1865, and became the parents of seven children-Mary, Charley, Frank, Nellie (deceased), Robert, Agnes and Paul. The living children by his present wife reside at home. Politically Mr. Bass is a member of the National Greenback party, and has held the office of Justice of the Peace several terms. He came to this county at the time the lands of the New Purchase were placed upon the market, and for a period of six years worked by the month for Mr. John White, now deceased, receiving for his first year's services, wages at the rate of $8.33 1/3 per month. Those were trying times for men, married or single, and rigid economy was the order of the day. Adapting himself to the situation, Mr. Bass worked hard, early and late, saved his money and bought land, which he cultivated, improved, and added to as his means would permit, until he is now the owner of 480 broad acres, with the best class of improvements. He has prospered, and his savings are the result of tireless industry and excellent management. As a citizen, none enjoy more fully the confidence and esteem of their fellow-men, and certainly none are more deserving of it than the subject of this sketch. | Bass, Robert W. (I52982)

He was known by many by his full name and big personality. He was a jack of all trades, literally and figuratively. Marc was born on September 1, 1956, in Beverly, Mass., to Joseph Bassett and Dorothy Richards (Morphew). From a young age, Marc knew how to work hard and play hard; from working at the family dairy farm or designing furniture for Ethan Allen, to building and crashing glider planes and raising pet squirrels. Upon graduating from high school, Marc set out in his Volkswagen Bug for California, only to blow a head gasket and take a job in Aspen, CO in 1976. Over the next 50 years in the Roaring Fork Valley he would pester the local wildlife, find and marry the love of his life, and put his stamp on just about every industry around. He said "yes" to life and lived his faith in action as an involved community member. He was a volunteer firefighter throughout the valley with 20+ years with the Carbondale Rural Fire Department, receiving the Lifesaver Award and ending his career there as a Captain. More than anything, Marc loved his wife and family and everything he did was for them. Marc is survived by his wife, Erin Bassett; children Jeremiah Bassett (Rachel), Natalie Bassett Baca (Brent), Jessica Spicer; grandchildren Jack and Austin Bassett and Wesley Baca; two brothers Jon and Dana Bassett. He had many unofficially adopted "kids" that he loved and mentored. He is preceded in death by his parents and many good friends.

| 2150 | PrimitiveBaptist.net Primitive Baptist Preacher Biographies Elder Jeremiah Bass I have always attended church, but the Lord did not deal with me personally until around the year 1990 or 91. Before that time, I was very rebellious against my parents, desiring to walk in my own ways. However, around the dates mentioned above, my pastor, Elder Mark Burress, gave me a book by A. W. Pink entitled The Sovereignty of God. I had never read religious books like that before (except the Bible, and I only read that because I had to), but decided to read it just to please my pastor. I even began at the introduction. For the first several chapters, the reading was boring to me, but one day I remember that suddenly the truths pronounced in that book became real to me. I felt myself to be a changed person, a "new creature." Shortly thereafter, God began to convict me of my sins, one by one. During this period of conviction, I attempted to gain God's favor by doing good works. I began to fast, pray, and read my Bible often. I thought that if I afflicted myself enough, that somehow God would finally accept me. But the more I did these things, the worse I saw myself to become. In attempting to get to heaven in my own strength, I only became more in bondage to the very sins I was trying to escape. However, one day by God's grace, I was shown the true way to salvation. The Holy Spirit through the Word led me away from Mount Sinai to Mount Calvary and led me to trust entirely upon the Lord Jesus Christ and His righteousness for salvation. I was shown that it is simply by faith in the dying Redeemer that we are justified. And as soon as I looked to Jesus, the chains of sin's enslavement fell off. I felt myself to be truly liberated both from the guilt and power of sin. And by God's grace, one day I shall be freed from the presence of sin as well. At this time, I simultaneously began to feel a desire to preach. It was not too long before I was given several opportunities to do so, and felt some measure of success to attend my feeble efforts. Nevertheless, what really sealed the matter for me was on a trip I took with Elder Billy Lawrence to Mexico to visit some churches there. During this trip I was given opportunity to preach twice: the first time I failed miserably, and began to wonder why I was in Mexico to begin with. But the second time I preached, the Lord attended the ministry of the Word with such blessing, even in the conversion of souls, that I was greatly encouraged. Another thing that has encouraged me towards devoting my life to the ministry of the Word, is in the means of preparation for the work. Even before having any opportunity to preach, I began to feel a burden to study the Greek language. This burden became so strong on me that felt I would be in disobedience to God if I did not pursue a study of the language. So down to the Christian book store I went, remembering that I had seen some books about Biblical Greek there. As I was perusing the aisles, a total stranger came tip to me, having noticed that I was looking over a Greek grammar manual, and asked me what I was doing. He did not belong to the store, and I had never seen him before. But after telling him I wanted to learn Greek, and was looking for a grammar to do so, he offered his services. Later I found out he was the pastor of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church in town. He told me that he would teach me Greek for free, that all I had to do was to buy the books. So not only did the Lord give me a burden to study Greek, He also gave me a teacher! If this was not a sign of what the Lord had in store for me, I do not know what it was. I have been preaching now for about five years. I was ordained on July 10, 1999, at the Primitive Baptist Church in Lawn, Texas. | Bass, Jeremiah Joseph (I155)
