| 2910 | The Pulaski Citizen, Tennessee, 4 January 1900 James Bass The destroyer, Death, has invaded our community again, claiming for its victim, James Bass. This sad death took place on the morning of Dece. 30, at 12:30 o'clock. The deceased was born Nov. 13, 1820, died Dec. 30, 1899, being 79 years, 1 month and 16 days old. He was married to Miss Sarah Houze between fifty and sixty years ago. They raised a large family of children, seven boys and four girls, six of whom are still living, some at the old homestead and the others within a short radius of it. Uncle Jim and Aunt Sallie (as his wife was called) lived a long, prosperous and happy life together, she having preceded him to their home above about eighteen months. Uncle Jim was a man of fine mind and business sense. He was of a political hint of mind and studied and kept posted upon the politics of the country. He was a man of firm will and strong convictions and his position upon any and all subjects could be found easily. He was a good, substatial citizen, a kind, obliging neighbor and the latch string of his door always hung on the outside to his friends and to the stranger, and he never forgot the poor, the widow and the orphan. He was a member of the Primitive Baptist Church at Lynnville, Tenn., and he was strong in the faith. Uncle Jim's health began to decline soon after his wife's death, and he suffered a great deal from dropsy three months preceding his death. His children, grandchildren, and friends nursed him as faithfully and tenderly as any one could desire. He was interred in the family burying ground at the old home near Bradshaw, Tenn., Dec. 31, 1899, being attended by a host of friends and relatives. The country has lost a good citizen and useful man, the family a kind father and the community a good neighbor. Peace to his ashes. | Bass, James (I48292)

| 2941 | The Roanoke Times, Virginia, Thursday, 7 September 2023 Susan Bassett Bidwell August 23, 1940 ? September 1, 2023 Susan Jane Bassett Bidwell of Boise, Idaho passed on September 1, 2023. She was raised in South Britain, Connecticut by her parents, Henry and Dorothy Bassett. She attended The University of Connecticut where she received a BA in English in 1961. She then made the first of many moves by getting a job with the federal government in Washington, DC. It was here that she met her future husband Richard Bidwell, whom she married in 1965. Throughout her life she was never afraid to relocate, and subsequently made her home in Germany, Australia, various parts of Virginia, and finally Idaho. Susan was driven to find aesthetic perfection in every part of her life. She used this artistic bent and studied photography for almost 40 years, first using her family as subjects. After too much fidgeting from them, she finally settled on the abstract still life as her focus. While living in Roanoke, Virginia, she became involved with the Market Gallery which gave her a chance to display her work and meet fellow artists. In addition to photography, she was a voracious reader, excellent cook and bread baker, and a lover of cinema, often saying the movie theatre was her church. Survivors include her daughter and son-in-law, Amy and Tom Reding of Boise, Idaho; daughter Anne Bidwell and son-in-law, Ryan Lasater of Alameda, California; her sister Sally McClure of East Berlin, Connecticut, and her sister Nancy Bassett of Iowa. The family wishes to thank St Luke's Hospice, caregiver Gudrun, and Home Instead, caregiver Susan. | Bassett, Susan Jane (I2440)
