Thomas A. Bass, 65, father of the late Rep. Elvin a. Bass, of this city, died Sunday morning. He suffered what apparently was a stroke and died before aid could reach him. He died at his farm at Chosen.

Mr. Bass was born at Orlando and made his home for many years in the central part of the state. He lived for years at Kissimmee where his son, Elvin Bass, was born. In 1915 the family moved here.
Mr. Bass operated the Bass Boat Line between this city and Lake Okeechobee on the West Palm Beach canal prior to the construction of Conners highway.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Bertha L. Bass; two sons, Lloyd Bass, of Chicago, and T. A. Bass Jr., of Pahokee; and four daughters, Mrs. C.M. Blount, of Fort Myers, Mrs. L.E. Steele, of Dallas, Texas, Miss Thelma Bass of this city, and Miss Mary Louise Bass, who is attending Stetson University at DeLand.
