Carol Ann Bass
Carol Ann Bass, a longtime Wenas Valley resident, passed away Tuesday, December 21, 2010, on her 86th birthday.
Carol was born December 21, 1924, at Wapakoneta, Ohio, to Joshua and Lela (McClintock) Winget. She later moved to Bremerton to work in the shipyards and then joined the Navy to become a hospital corpsman. Carol met her husband, Tom Bass, in 1945 while they were serving in the U.S. Navy. After the Navy, Tom worked for Boeing until 1987 when he retired. While Tom was traveling for work, Carol and her son kept the ranch going that they purchased in 1961.
Carol did not spend a lot of time worrying about herself. She and her husband, Tom both lived very busy lives in their own worlds, so when they were able to be together it was all frosting on the cake. Carol's focus was on other people. She was one of those special people who brightened the lives of those around her. For 40 years she opened her arms and home to young people from 8 to 15 years of age on the Triple B Ranch.
Carol was preceded in death by her parents, Joshua Mack Winget and Lela McClintock 1898-1988; her two daughters, Mary Elizabeth and Barbara Ann; her husband Thomas Bass, Jr.; three brothers, Eugene, John and Mac Winget,; and by a sister-in-law, Agnes Winget, and a grandchild Amy Jean Bass 1987
