| 50312 | Tragic Devonport Family Echoes of a Tragedy A gravestone for two young girls in the Weston Mill Cemetery, Plymouth, attracted the attention of a visitor because it declared they had been killed in the "Queen Street Disaster". Mrs. Mavis Potts tells me her son came across the stone, which gave the girls' ages as nine and five and said they died in January 23, 1939. But what, asked Mrs. Potts, was the Queen Street Disaster? I have taken a look at the "Western Evening Herald" files of the time and found a tragic story. Here is a summary of the contemporary account taken from the paper published within twelve hours of the event. At the height of the gale early this morning between 1.5 and 1.10 am the wind was blowing at almost hurricane force, when the south wall of No. 45 Queen Street, Devonport, only a few yards from the Dockyard gates at Fore Street, was blown in. As it tottered the top of the house collapsed. On the top floor a family of five named Smale were sleeping and on the second floor were the Bassetts, the father, mother and five children. The Smales were all rescued, along with Mr. and Mrs. Bassett, and three of their children. The two other Bassett children, Beryl, aged seven years, and Barbara, aged eight years, were later found in the debris and taken to the Prince of Wales hospital, where they were pronounced dead. Also taken to the hospital was Mr. G. Smale, aged 45, with head injuries and severe shock; and also injured was another of the Bassett daughters, aged 16. Police and firemen had to remove tons of debris to effect the rescue of the occupants. They were assisted by a naval man, believed to be Leading Seaman Gilmour, of HMS Basiliks, who was passing at the tme of the collapse. He worked like a "Trojan" and slipped quietly away after the bodies of the two little girls had been recovered. Some two months earlier the house adjjoining No. 45 had been pulled down leaving the south wall of No. 45 exposed to the elements. | Bassett, Barbara (I181)

| 50316 | Traverse City Record-Eagle, Michigan, Friday, August 24, 2018 William H. Bassett December 27, 1923 ? August 17, 2018 William Howard Bassett, 94 years old, passed away on Friday, Aug. 17, 2018 surrounded by family and friends at Clark Retirement Community in Grand Rapids. Bill was born Dec. 27, 1923 at home in Ferndale with a birth weight of 13 pounds, 8 ounces. He is believed to be the biggest baby born in the city that year. He was the fourth child born to Gordon and Dora Bassett who went on to have five more children for a total of nine. Times were tough during the depression, but Gordon did carpentry work and Dora had a large garden where the family grew many vegetables and canned enough for their needs. Bill always worked and had many jobs during high school, including delivering ice to customers and building trailers. He graduated from McKenzie High School in 1942. Bill began work with Michigan Bell Telephone Company in that year and worked there until February 1944 when he was drafted for World War II. After basic training in Washington State Bill was selected as a pole climbing instructor because of his skills he learned at Michigan Bell. He was promoted to Corporal and eventually Sergeant when on maneuvers in Louisiana. He was sent overseas in August and landed in France with the fighting 44th Infantry Division Artillery Liaison Group. Bill's troupe would direct fire upon targets from the Big Guns. Bill had four brothers also served overseas in World War II. His brother, Ralph, was killed in action in the skies over Italy. Brothers, Ron, Doug and Gordon fought overseas and survived. The 44th moved across France and into Germany, where Bill received the Bronze Star for bravery under fire by leading his platoon after his captain was killed in action. After VE Day (Victory in Europe), he returned home July 1945 and was training to return to action against Japan when the Japanese surrendered. Bill went back to work at Michigan Bell Telephone Company in August 1945. He married Vivian Hedden in 1952 and built a nice home on Schoolcraft Road in Livonia. Bill had two sons, William H. Jr. in 1956 and Jonathan Neel in 1960. He continued his advancement at Michigan Bell in Ann Arbor as a second line foreman and finally as district plant manager in Detroit. Bill was active in his sons' development as a manager of their baseball teams and as leader of their Indian Guide Troupes. He had the family involved in the Livonia Weekenders Camping Club, where he served as president and participated in camping at least one weekend every month and for two weeks in the summer. Both he and Vivian instilled in the boys a love of nature through their many camp outs and camping trips over the years. As a family they traveled to over 30 states and Canada. Bill also worked as a group leader by mentoring high school students in business through the Junior Achievement program. Bill was an avid roller hockey player in his early years and became a good golfer, winning many trophies in club tournaments. He also was an active member in the Elks Club. When Bill retired after 39 years at Michigan Bell, he and Vivian wintered in Florida. He purchased a cottage on Lake Placid near Kalkaska and eventually sold that and bought an old house on Lake Leelanau. He put a large addition on this old house to complete his beautiful home. He was known as a very hard worker and had many skills. Family was very important to Bill and he took pride in hosting the annual Bassett reunion for over 30 years often drawing 50-plus relatives. "Pops" was known for his quick wit and his great sense of humor. Bill was very generous in friends and family. He started college scholarship programs at Schoolcraft College in Livonia and at Northwestern Michigan College in Traverse City. These scholarships provide four to six students per year with financial support of $500 to $1,000 annually. Bill lost his previous wife, Vivian, in 1999. He married Vivian Scranton Bassett, of Traverse City, in 2000. They lived in Traverse City for a few years and then at Clark Retirement Home in Grand Rapids since 2005. Bill is survived by Vivian Scranton Bassett; brother, Ronald Bassett; sons, William H. Bassett Jr. (Laurie) and Jonathan Bassett (Cheryl); grandson, Wesley Bassett (Chelsea); granddaughters, Patricia Bassett, Katie Bassett Faipler (Jason) and Sarah Bassett; great-granddaughter, Adelyn Bassett; and twin great-grandsons, Huxley and Cohen.

| 50318 | Traverse City Record-Eagle, Michigan, Thursday, June 14, 2018 Landon Neel Bassett Landon Neel Bassett, 37 years old, from San Carlos, California, passed away at 9 a.m. Saturday, June 9, 2018, surrounded by family and close friends at the University of California San Francisco Medical Center after a valiant five month struggle with adrenal cancer. He faced his diagnosis like he did all of his life, with strength, realism, and a healthy dose of humor. He truly made us all stronger as we watched him face his biggest challenge. Landon was born May 7, 1981 in Traverse City to parents, William H. Bassett Jr. and Laurie L. (McVicker) Bassett. Always ahead of his time, he was starting to crawl at 3 months old, walking at 8 months and skiing at 3-1/2 years old. From there his adventures took off! The son of teachers, Landon grew up camping and traveling the United States, having traveled to 48 states before high school graduation. He loved attending climbing schools and summer ski race camps. Landon was always exploring, very active and just generally curious about what life had to offer. A very smart, capable student who participated on Olympic of the Mind teams, school was simply a means to an end, much to the frustration of his teachers and parents. As a creative child, he would just rather be doing other things. He was able to take many college classes while in high school. He graduated from Elk Rapids High School in 1999 with honors and participated on the ski and tennis teams. Skiing was one of his greatest passions, and he would ski all day long at a young age without anyone along at his local favorite, Holiday Hills. His parents encouraged him to consider racing. But competition was never his thing, he just skied for fun and the thrill. He did however go on to ski race, starting at age 6 through high school as a member of the Central United Ski Association (Cussa). He was a standout in skiing and led his high school team to the state finals all four years of high school. He was an All State selection his senior year. Upon graduation, Landon selected the University of Utah, he claimed, because of their excellent business school. But we all knew, he was going to major in extreme skiing, mountain biking and climbing! He joined The Phi - Delta - Theta fraternity (although he was not your typical frat boy) because it consisted of all the best skiers, climbers and bikers. This ended up being a great choice, as he made many quality, lifelong friends. He graduated from the "U" with a degree in marketing. After graduating from college he was a marketer for Red Bull, of which he was able to supply Olympic athletes with Red Bull during the 2002 Olympics on his campus. He also worked at Wilderness Exchange before landing a job with Factory Labs, a hip marketing firm in Denver. Factory Labs sent him as the representative to California to try and nab The North Face as a client. Landon, with his conviction and confidence, was successful at recruiting TNF. He left an impression with The North Face staff and was asked to return and interview for an open position with 1,000 other applicants. He was hired in 2010, and the rest is history. He moved up quickly and before his death was recently promoted as one of the youngest directors at TNF as the creative director of content, which included all videos, social media, commercials and website. His special love was working with the 50-plus North Face athletes to coordinate extreme expeditions and the filming and production of commercials. These expeditions took Landon to many locales around the world, including the base camp of Mount Everest with the Mayo Clinic to study how high altitude affected climbers. Landon truly lived The North Face motto of "Never Stop Exploring." Landon challenged himself both physically and intellectually. He conquered 15 of Colorado's peaks by climbing up and skiing down. His CrossFit workouts enabled him to stay reasonably close to many of the professional athletes in skiing, climbing, mountain biking or surfing. Many friends and professionals marveled at his expert skiing ability. His ultimate high was backcountry Snow Cat skiing and heli-skiing multiple times each winter. Many who knew Landon well said his thinking was like no other person they have ever met. He read voraciously and could debate politics, philosophy, religion, cultural trends or fashion with the "best of them." As an intellectual, Landon loved challenging others to think outside the box and to be honest about what they truly valued instead of following the status quo. When he challenged others to be their best selves, he could be relentless in his approach. He was a true Renaissance Man and always "marched to the beat of a different drum." This uniqueness and unapologetic way of living his life is what endeared him to the many friends who were at his side throughout his last journey. Another passion of his was anything to do with design, and that led him to become an expert photographer, collector of fine threads and art. He was widely known for his impeccable style and as a "cultured Mountain Man." His true love was sharing his life with his soul mate, Lindsay "Sweeb" Kennedy. They had an abiding love like no other, while sharing the same interests, zest for life and embracing the California lifestyle. Most weekends they could be found surfing, mountain biking or trail running with their friends. They both loved coming back to the awesomeness of Northern Michigan's summers to hang with his brother, Wes, and parents and to just take in the serenity and beauty of boating on some of the best lakes in the world. Landon lived more life in 37 years than most do in 90. He was truly one of a kind, a unique personality whose gift to us all was the importance of living life to the fullest as your true authentic self. He certainly embodied that and had no regrets. His impact on so many lives for his strength, intelligence, humor and authenticity will live on forever, and he will be greatly missed by all whose lives were touched by him. His loss is crushing to our family, but we are uplifted by the love and support of extended family, our friends and his wide circle of good friends. Our countless family trips of exploring the country together will be forever etched in our memories. We love you so much, Lanny B., Lan, The Don, for the man you had become and were always so proud of you. We are at peace knowing you lived life exactly how you wanted and on your own terms. He is survived by the love of his life, Lindsay Kennedy; his parents, Laurie and Bill Bassett; brother, Wesley Bassett (Chelsea), and his great source of pride; his niece, Addy; nephew twins, Cohen and Huxley; his paternal grandfather, William H. Bassett Sr.; maternal grandmother, Louise McVicker; uncles, Jim McVicker (Janet), Scott McVicker (Sherry), Andy McVicker, Max McVicker and Jon Bassett (Cheryl); many cousins; and countless friends who were there with him to the end. Landon was preceded in death by his paternal grandmother, Vivian Bassett; maternal grandfather, James McVicker Sr.; and his aunt, Becky (McVicker) Mouch. Landon has been cremated per his wishes. A celebration of his life will be held in San Carlos, California, on June 23, and in Elk Rapids on Sept. 1 at 3 p.m. at the Elk Rapids Memorial Harbor Pavilion. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to his CaringBridge site which will be forwarded to National Public Radio, Protect our Winters or University of Michigan's Adrenal Cancer Center.

| 50331 | Tressa Davis Bass April 27, 1913 to March 9, 2004 March 13, 2004 Eulogy by Everett Davis, nephew that she raised as her own son following her parents death. Today we are gathered here to celebrate the life of Tressa Davis Bass. Many here have the privilege of knowing her for years in many varying types of relationships. Some of us may know her as Mom, Mother-in-Law, Grandmother, Great-GrandMother, Aunt, Great-Aunt, Sister-in-Law, Neighbor, long time friend, and the list goes on and on. In the 90 years of her presence with us, she bestowed the best she had to offer to everyone she encountered. All who know her know of her deep and abiding trust in Jesus Christ because she shares it with everyone she meets. That is nothing new for her. Several years ago quite unexpectedly in a conversation with another saint of God at church I related that my family came from Quanah, Texas. This lady explained that she and her late husband were ministers in Quanah before coming to West Texas about 65 years earlier, when they began founding and establishing churches across the area. The lady asked if I was related to the JC Davis family there. I replied that I was his grand-son. She became quite excited. She knew my father, and indeed, the whole family. She asked about everyone, and finally about Aunt Tressa. When I told her that Aunt Tressa had raised me from a small child, her eyes sparkled. She told me of her friendship with Aunt Tressa as they had known each other in their teens through the time she and her husband pastored her church in Quanah. When I told her Aunt Tressa was in Lubbock, she was ecstatic. She went on to relate and remember their deep Christian friendship decades earlier. Afterwards, she and Aunt Tressa visited a number of times remembering wonderful experiences they shared in Christ, over 70 years ago, and catching up on a life-time of experiences in-between. I remember literally thousands of things that over the years we have shared. I remember as a very young child somehow knowing the words to virtually all the verses of just about any hymn you would find in the church hymnals. Aunt Tressa loves to sing. As a child at her apron strings, I was there as her songs filled the atmosphere around her. She would open the kitchen window and her voice of praise and worship filled the neighborhood. If she were outside hanging the laundry on the clothes line, standing at the sink, ironing clothes, cleaning the bathroom, cooking, or whatever.... there was a song in her heart. When I was a boy here, attending school, I would walk home and I would hear her singing several houses before I reached home. Many of you remember as well..... Whether it was There's Power in the Blood, The Old Rugged Cross, I Saw the Light, Will the Circle Be Unbroken, Amazing Grace, A Mansion Just over the Hilltop, I'll Fly Away, Blessed Assurance, What a Friend We Have in Jesus, Just as I Am, In the Garden, Nearer My God to Thee, It Is Well with My Soul, The Lords Prayer, How Great Thou Art ..... and hundreds of others throughout the years..... One was always there. What was her favorite..... Hard to say it's not the one on her lips at the moment. Curtis told me that last week she was sitting in her living room, .... Singing to The Lord. That figures.... it's who she is. Aunt Tressa knows, and made sure that I know too, that we are created by God, made in His image, after His likeness. We are created then as eternal beings, just as God is eternal. We will exist forever somewhere, and we by the grace of God, have a choice as to where. I don't have to tell you what her choice is. Her life does it so eloquently. In her 90 years here, I know just from talking with one of her early life friends, she had settled that issue at least 75 years ago in her life.... perhaps even much earlier in her childhood. I know personally in the last 50 years that I have shared with her, she has never wavered in her faith. Were she speaking directly to you now instead of me, she would invite you not to leave this building without making the same decision to serve Christ and accept Him personally. I also invite you to. Perhaps you have noticed that I keep saying she is, not that she was. Last week Tera and my family physically moved out of our old home into a new one. This week Aunt Tressa did that spiritually. I clearly understand what she taught me regarding being absent from the body, means being present with Christ. It's where she is today, and where we all will be someday by the grace of God ...reunited with her. Aunt Tressa is a spiritual giant and a prayer warrior with an indomitable will and faith of iron that now has joined a choir in Heaven. I can almost hear some of the other choir members in the back saying as they hear her voice resound in Heaven; Hey, who's the new kid up front? I too stand before you as a Christian, in no small part to the witness of her life before us, as do many of you already. She is a prayer warrior that knows how to praise God and share her faith with others. Aunt Tressa is more than any Aunt could ever be to me. She is Mom. She raised me, as she helped raise my father before me. She is more to many of you as well. Those of you who know her truly understand what that means. Over the years she has taken in many strays and nourished them back to life and health. Aunt Tressa has never been wealthy, but she is rich beyond her dreams. When she met someone who was in need, she met their need as best she could. If they were hungry, she sat them down at the table and fed them til they were filled. If they were thirsty she offered them some of that instant iced tea that she was famous for. You remember, it was the tea that would almost completely dissolve in water, but stick to the ice cubes.... If the person were ill, she would call and cheer them up, and tell them she had been praying for them. If they were grieving, she would console them with something in the Bible. If the person needed clothing, she would generally find them something that she had put away for such a time. What was it the master said about this type of person? Matthew 25:35 35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. 37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. Yes, she is rich and we all the more, because we have been graced by God with her presence in our lives. Today we celebrate her life and her.... how would she sing it ... her Victory in Jesus I am absolutely certain when my turn comes, and I am about to enter Heaven, while I am just a short distance away, through the open windows in Heaven, I will hear Aunt Tressa singing, and know that I am almost home. | Davis, Tressa (I126)

| 50334 | Tri-City Herald, April 16, 2014 Einan?s Funeral Home Mary Frances Bassett Mary Frances Bassett, 94, passed away on April 11, 2014 in Richland, WA. She was born August 20, 1920 to Edna and John Long in a very rural South King County, area near the now cities of Federal Way and Auburn. Her youth was spent in the woods and meadows of the Pacific Northwest, living in a large farmhouse, complete with woodstove heating. She liked to tell the true story of walking with her siblings to a one-room schoolhouse, being careful to avoid the cougars and black bear that were frequently spotted. Her brother carried a shotgun to protect them all. Mary attended Pacific Lutheran University and University of Washington, graduating with a BA teaching degree. She earned her master's degree later while working. She was praised for her success as a teacher. Almost her entire career was accomplished at Highline School District, outside of the Seattle area. She retired from there in 1980. Mary met the love of her life, Sherrell L. Bassett, just before WWII. They married quickly and spent the entire war in the pacific Beach on the Washington coastline, where Sherrell was stationed performing his Naval duties. Mary kept working as a teacher for all the Navy children. They settled back in Burien, WA after WWII for a few years, and then built a lovely home on the hillside overlooking the Kent valley's Green River farmland to raise their family. Mary never lost the desire to be at the beach so her and our dad built a home at Ocean Shores, WA. She enjoyed many good family and friends gathering, clam digging and beachcombing. A lover of nature, Mary was a bird watcher and gardener. The variety of flowers gracing her yards was beautiful. The birds had a haven in her gardens. She also grew amazing large raspberries. Family waited for her prized raspberry jelly. She also had an eye for antiques and decorated her various homes always with a splash of wonderful old glassware and cozy antique furniture. In later years she moved to a cottage, then an apartment with a great view of South Puget Sound, at Wesley Gardens for retired seniors (Methodist Church owned) in Des Moines, WA. She stayed socially active with quilters club where she had a wonderful circle of friends that cared for each other. She continued to attend the same church as an active member for 40 years and had developed many lifelong friendships with her husband, many who also resided at Wesley Gardens. As her health struggles started and continued it became important to get her nearer to family that could include her easily with holiday events, family outings and birthdays. It gave us ease in watching over her and keeping medical appointments. She lived at Prestige Assisted Care Facility and Rehab for over four years. The community and care she felt there was a blessing. We want to thank all the staff who treated Mary with such compassion and respect. You became a second family to her and us. You are in our hearts. We also want to thank the hospice team and the hospice volunteers. Mom was so comfortable until the end. Your dedicating loving work is another blessing. She is survived by her children, Steven Bassett (Mona), Kathryn Sherwood (Mark) and James Bassett (Kitte). She has seven grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her parents; husband; and siblings, Lilly, Johnny, Ester and Blanche. Mary will be missed for her humor, dignity, and attention to family and friends wherever she went. We are comforted that she is in God's welcoming arms now. We appreciate that any memorial donations in her honor be to: Tri-Cities Chaplaincy 1480 Fowler St. Richland, WA 99352 or Des Moines Area Food Bank P.O. Box 98788 Des Moines, WA 98198.

The Rodgers family spent Jennana's early years in Farmington, New Mexico, before moving to Chama, where she began her education at Chama Elementary. After a brief return to Farmington and a year in Albuquerque, the family settled back in Farmington, where Jennana attended school from elementary through high school and formed friendships that would last a lifetime. From a young age, Jennana was known for her vibrant spirit and competitive nature. Whether playing sports with her brothers or challenging them to be better, her determination shone brightly. She embraced life with enthusiasm, inspiring those around her with her passion and zest for living. On April 11, 1986, Jennana married her true love, Jerrell Bassett, in a heartfelt ceremony at the Exciting Tabernacle Baptist Church in Farmington. Together, they created a warm home in Wild Horse Valley, where they raised their beloved son, Albert Daniel Bassett. Jennana's dedication to her family was unwavering, and her love for her son was evident in everything she did.

Bassett, who died at his home Tuesday morning, September 9, 1913, was born November 23rd 1826 at Bovina, Delaware Co. N.Y. He was the son of Francis and Mary Cushing Bassett and was the fifth of a family of eight and the last to pass away. In 1836 the family moved to Branch Co., Michigan, where he lived until early manhood. For a few years he was in business in Buffalo, N.Y., but on account of his health came to Illinois in 1851 and soon after bought land and engaged in farming.

In 1857 he united with the Methodist church in which he was a devoted worker to the time of his death, serving on the official board for years, also as class leader and worker in the Sunday school.

It seems that on Wednesday afternoon she was crossing the street at Fourteenth street and Tremont Place and while dodging one automobile she stepped directly in the path of another, which knocked her to the pavement and dragged her some distance.

They immediately moved to Springfield, Nebraska, where they resided until 1907, when the moved to Colorado. Taking over a relinquishment five miles northwest of Cheyenne Wells, they made that their home until the death of Mr. Bassett, which occurred January 6, 1912, at which time she moved to Cheyenne Wells. In order that her children might have larger opportunities, she moved to Denver in the early part of the summer, where her oldest daughter, Miss Minnie Bassett, was a student nurse in St. Joseph?s hospital. She is survived by six children, four sisters and two brothers. One of the sisters, Mrs. C.C. Miller of Carthage, Mo., came in time to be with the bereaved children at the funeral. The children are Miss Minnie Bassett, Mrs. Annie Paulson, Floyd, the only boy, Mildred, Lucy and Adah. The funeral was held from the local Methodist church Sunday, Sept. 22, the Rev. A.R.
