| 3051 | The Virginian-Pilot, Norfolk, Virginia 15 November 2010 Naomi Legum Feldman Bass VIRGINIA BEACH - Naomi Legum Feldman Bass, wife, mother, nana, sister, aunt, cousin and dearest friend, in her 85 brief years she was everything to us. Family was always first, her gentle heart, inner strength, her keen intelligence, her wisdom, her abiding love, and her deep faith in G-D have guided and nurtured us throughout our lives. Her history is a family legend. Her mother, Lena Cohen Legum, a refugee from Europe, married in the USA and eventually settled in Berkley. Her father, Benjamin Legum, died in his thirties of cancer. Her brothers, Irvin (Echie) and Leonard (Juicy) and sister, Ruth always looked out for her. A good student, she finished high school and some college before marrying I. Morton Feldman. They made a loving home for Howard, Brian and Robin until Dad's unexpected death at age 43. Mom raised us by herself, while working, and made life as normal as she could. Our extended family was very close as well and Morton's sister, Helen, her husband, Milton and two children, Joan and Philip were very much in our day-to-day lives. When Helen died too, at 42, Mom and Milton after a time fell in love and eventually married. Milton became "Pop" and our family an ever stronger and closer one. Our life with Mom and Pop was memorable for our closeness, our times at the restaurant, our trips in Nags Head, and for celebrating family. Our religion was a constant presence in our lives. Life was not easy for mom with the untimely loss of son, Philip, brother, Leonard, brother Irvin, sister, Ruth, brother- in-law, Morris, niece, Barbara (who meant the world to her), "Pop", and her granddaughter, Helen Mardee (a light in her life), and Duchess her beloved Yorkie. Moms own bouts with cancer over the last 22 years of her life were a constant presence but did not control her life. Through it all, she was a rock, and our always anchor in unexpectedly shifting sand. She always thought of others first and was ever involved in our lives in a most appreciated way. She has become our greatest example in addition to our greatest friend. She is irreplaceable in our hearts, our minds, our lives, and we thank G-D every day for her presence in our lives. Our extraordinary Mom/Nana will be forever remembered in our hearts. We will miss her so, as the grandkids say, "Nana is AMAZING!" She leaves to cherish her precious memory her daughter, Joan Baydush, husband Jerry, grandson Alan Baydush wife Lori; and great-grandsons, Aidan Baydush and Alex Kehayas, son of Helen Baydush Kehayas of blessed memory; her granddaughter Lexie Feldman, son, Dr. Howard Feldman, and his partner Maria Winn and son Robin Winn; her son, Brian Feldman, wife Terri and grandchildren Philip Michael, Max, and Erin; her daughter, Robin Kyle, husband Rickie, grandsons, Philip Mason and Lance Kyle. She also leaves to cherish her memory one sister-in-law, Bea Legum and family; her nephews, Joe Bass, Benn and Jackie Richels and family, and Richard and Claire Richels and family. Also special to her are her dear friends, Dorothy Legum, Mary and Glen Nichols and the entire Fiorella family and her many dear family and friends who remain forever in her heart. | Legum, Naomi (I30)

Pastor Wayne Whitley, Rev. Dr. John Mark Horrell, and Elder Spencer Batchelor will officiate. The family will receive friends prior to the service from 1 - 2:45 p.m. at Farmington Heights Church, Wilson. Joe was born June 15, 1950, in Wilson County to the late Rev. Alvin Willie and Betty Creech Bass. Joe was never lazy, nor did he ever mind work as evidenced by working at Anderson's Grocery Store at the young age of 12. After graduating Ralph L. Fike High School in 1969, he attended Wilson Police Academy which resulted in a career in law enforcement as a Police Officer with the City of Wilson Police Department in January 1973. Joe's attention to detail, his exceptional memory and strong work ethics allowed advancement in law enforcement, receiving recognition, multiple awards including two lifesaving awards and Police Officer of the Year. On his days off, Joe worked with his two brothers in Drywall Construction. Some years later, Joe was promoted to Detective and served in this position until his retirement in July 2005. Joe started his career at Wilson Medical Center in 1993 as a part-time uniform officer in the Emergency Department. During his twenty-nine years at Wilson Medical Center, he held the advancing positions of Security Supervisor, Sergeant, and Safety/Security Lieutenant. Joe left Wilson Medical Center in March of 2024. Having worked all of his life, Joe quickly realized that retirement life was not for him and began employment with Lee Ford of Wilson in September 2024 as concierge driver for the Ford Service Department, a job which he dearly loved. Joe was preceded in death by his parents, Rev. Alvin Willie and Betty Creech Bass, and sister, Patricia Faye Tedder; brother-in-law, Marion Victor Tedder; great niece, Vivian Coral Bass, and sister-in-law Rochelle E. Woodruff. He leaves to cherish his memory his beloved wife, Doreen Woodruff Bass, a daughter Jolyn Latoria Bass of New Bern, and two sons, Justin Lee Bass of Greenville and Jonathan Lawson Bass of Wilson; two grandchildren, Nicholas "Nick" Lee Bass and Natalie Elizabeth Bass of Greenville; siblings, Alvin Ravone Bass, Sr. (Janice), Richard "Ricky" G. Bass (Jenny), Debbie B. Bass (Bucky) and Teresa B. Patton (Keith); father and mother-in-law, Johnny F. and Brenda W. Woodruff, and several nieces, great nieces, nephews, great nephews. Joe's hobbies included spending time with family, fishing, deer and duck hunting, baseball, yardwork, the beach, listening to 107.9 Sunday On The Beach, and watching Hank Parker's fishing show. Joe dedicated his life to serving and protecting the people of Wilson. Joe's passing has left a deep void among his family, friends, colleagues and the residents he so dearly served. Throughout his career, Joe was known for his unwavering dedication, integrity, and compassion. He not only enforced the law but also sought to build meaningful connections with the community. He was a dependable figure who could always be relied on in the toughest of situations. The people of Wilson and others will remember him as a kind and approachable individual who genuinely cared about their safety and well-being. Beyond his role in law enforcement, Joe was a person who spread warmth and laughter wherever he went. His friendship was a source of comfort, and his loyalty to those he cared for was unmatched. He brought a sense of calm and confidence to everyone around him, and his presence was a constant reminder of what it means to serve with kindness and honor. Joe's legacy of service and compassion will undoubtedly live on in the hearts of those who knew him. His service, both as an officer and as a friend, will not ever be forgotten.
