| 1458 | Eannace Funeral Home Bernice Guilford Bass N. UTICA ? Lovingly known as ?Mother of the Church,? Bernice (Guilford) Bass, age 98, was embraced by Christ?s hands, as He greeted her with unbounded love and amazing grace, when she entered into rest on Wednesday, May 20, 2026. Her children found caring for her effortless and each day they made it as pleasant as possible for her. They were by her side at the time of her peaceful passing. Born in Isabella, Pennsylvania, on June 25, 1927, Bernice was the daughter of the late Bishop Hezekiah and Elvia (Mays) Guilford. She was raised and educated in Pomona, New Jersey, attending Egg Harbor City Public Schools and graduating from Egg Harbor City High School. She later attended cosmetology school in Atlantic City, where she became a talented and creative beautician. Bernice cared for women from her home salon, where many faithfully returned for her skill and kindness. Bernice married the love of her life, Clifton Bass, on August 11, 1947. As a pastor?s wife, she walked beside her husband with such grace and an unwavering devotion to her Lord. They complemented one another with deep respect and a remarkable love and were committed on many levels. Bernice would often say, ?I had the best, why settle for less?? affectionately referring to her beloved husband as ?Chipper.? The couple shared 45 blessed years together prior to Clifton?s passing on May 2, 1993. In August of 1975, Clifton relocated his family to the Utica area through a job opportunity that proved to be a tremendous blessing to his family. He lovingly referred to the area as ?God?s Country.? Clifton faithfully served under the founder of Payne?s Temple C.O.G.I.C., Elder John Payne. In 1977, Clifton became Assistant Pastor, and on May 19, 1991, he was appointed Pastor of the church. From the very beginning of his ministry involvement, Bernice faithfully stood by his side. Through her wisdom, congenial spirit, and devotion, she became the beloved First Lady of the church, serving under seven pastors, each of whom she loved dearly, including her present pastor, Pastor Todd J. Rodriguez-Spencer. She persevered in her calling and remained sincerely attentive and compassionate toward all people. Bernice also served as District Missionary, carrying additional responsibilities and further elevating both her title and her own spiritual journey. She was not only the Church Mother but a mother figure to all. She could be remembered for many reasons, but above all else, it was her deep love and devotion to Jesus Christ that made her so captivating to others. Her calling began at an early age, witnessed first by her father, who recognized something majestic and profound within her spirit- all she ever knew was serving the Lord because she wa??s truly one of ?Hezekiah?s Angels,? which Hezekiah lovingly referred to his daughters as. Bernice carried within her heart a deep faith, trust, and love for the Lord, often describing it as though she could feel the fluttering of wings upon her shoulders. ?Jesus is Real? was more than a phrase to Bernice, it was the way she lived her life. She knew her relationship with the Lord was genuine, virtuous, and rooted in love. She welcomed others into that space of faith, and when she spoke, people listened. They learned from her message because it was sincere and remarkably humbling. Bernice offered encouragement, guidance, and inspiring faith to all who crossed her path, always reminding others to trust in the Lord. She prayed for everyone and lived by the words, ?We do the possible and God does the impossible!? Mother Bass was stoic in her faith, a quality greatly admired by others. She was loved, trusted, deeply respected. Though age began to slow her somewhat in 2020, Bernice will never be forgotten. She lives on in the hearts and minds of innumerable fellow worshipers and the community at large. She walked it, talked it, and truly proved what it meant to become a believer devoted to the Lord. Peace of mind gave Bernice comfort throughout her life. She was never one for conflict or distress, but instead kept her household filled with harmony while glorifying Jesus at all times. Most precious to Bernice was her family, along with her cherished church family, whom she considered an added blessing in her life. Her humility was rooted in the love she carried for others. She possessed qualities as rare and precious as gemstones, influencing those around her to remain mindful, compassionate, and tenderhearted. Bernice loved conversation and also possessed a spicy and sassy side that could be quite entertaining. In the proper setting, her quick wit and humor brought joy and laughter to those around her. She enjoyed caring for her collection of plants and flowers and loved Chanel?s collection of perfumes. Bernice deeply appreciated nature and often reflected upon ?how God created all things,? admiring birds, animals, and the beauty of creation. Penguins and red cardinals held a special place among her favorite animals. Children naturally embraced Mother Bass with joy and love, and she lovingly returned that affection. Her hugs were truly something special. She had a remarkable ability to recognize the children who needed a little extra care and compassion. Lighthearted and playful with them, she made young ones laugh easily, and they naturally gravitated toward her gentle spirit. Bernice firmly believed that nothing was too difficult through faith, often living by the words, ?I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.? To help provide for the needs of her family, Bernice worked throughout her life in several positions. She was employed with AT&T operating switchboards, a position through which she came to know many people. She later worked for Sears & Roebuck in the children?s clothing department and eventually in the warranty department. Bernice also accepted a position with the Utica City School District working in its cafeterias, where she became affectionately known as ?Grandma? because of her tender touch and loving presence. Bernice was also a proud Red Hatter, a reflection of the fun-loving side of her personality. She enjoyed dining out and treasured the memories made while taking a cruise to Nassau with her daughter, an experience that brought her great joy and lasting happiness. Angels were beautifully displayed throughout her home, often bringing comfort and peace. Bernice lived a fruitful life filled with gratitude and carried no regrets. Family reunions and trips back and forth to New Jersey to visit her sisters and loved ones brought her tremendous excitement and joy. Food was always an important expression of love to Bernice, and she became especially known as an amazing ?Chicken Soup Maker.? Her beloved church home was Payne?s Temple C.O.G.I.C., where she deeply loved the Lord, her Pastor, and her church family. The church remained a true second home to her throughout her life. Bernice?s courage, perseverance, and unwavering dedication to her responsibilities inspired admiration from all who knew her, and many were strengthened by her remarkable fortitude. Mother Bass is survived by her son, Dennis Lee Bass (the late Dorothy Bass); daughter, Denise Ward; grandchildren, Keisha Bass, and Shameka Bass; Stanley, Veronica, and Gregory Sykes; and great-grandchildren, Myson, Keyomi; and Logan. She is further survived by her sister, Juanita Drinks (the late Elder James Drinks). Cherished were the memories of her late sisters and brothers-in-law, Evangelist Ernestine Cruz and Minister Francisco Cruz, Beatrice and Larkey Mays, Ida Mae and Bishop C.C. Mays, Alice Parker-Jones and Herny Jones, and Ruth and Charles Bass; and brothers, Eugene Guildford, William Guilford, and Hosea. She also leaves her sister-in-law, Versey Bass (the late Rev. Martin V. Bass). She had sweet nieces and handsome nephews, cousins; and four precious godchildren, Spring Smoakes, Karen Boykin, and Gina Henry. Among her many treasured friendships, she was especially blessed with her friend of over 60 years, Della Woods. Mother Bass? children Dennis and Denise wish to extend their humble gratefulness to EVERYONE for their care, compassion, and prayers. The overwhelming sense of love being poured out by the community at large, as well as Pastor Todd J. Rodriguez-Spencer and the entire Payne?s Temple C.O.G.I.C. family will be forever remembered. A special thank you to Drs. Lwin and Shwe Win for over 30 years of guidance and care rendered to Mother Bass. Thanks as well to the special nurses of the Wynn Hospital 5 East, who took exceptional care of Mother Bass, for which the family is deeply grateful.

| 1474 | Emogene Nellie Bessette, 95 (Picture included) Thursday, December 4, 2014 Emogene Nellie (Hilliard) Shively Bessette, 95, passed peacefully November 25, 2014, surrounded by loving family. Services were held at St. Thomas Catholic Church in Coeur d?Alene, Idaho on Dec. 1, 2014, with burial at Grandview Cemetery in Bonners Ferry, Idaho. Emogene was born Dec. 28, 1918 to Daniel and Marie (Drabbels) Hilliard in Malta, Mont. When she was 2 the family moved by wagon to Bonners Ferry, Idaho, and settled in an idyllic spot perched above the Kootenai River. She had fond memories of her childhood there, helping her dad on the farm and fishing with him on the Moyie, learning to cook at an early age from her mother, and riding a horse, or walking several miles to the Old Sheridan school and then graduated from Bonners Ferry High School in 1936. In 1938 Emogene married Donald Shively of Bonners Ferry and there they settled and began raising their large family of 10 children. She worked hard tending her gardens, cooking, canning, cleaning and caring for the children. She was also an active member of St. Anne?s Catholic Church. In 1956 Emogene moved to Coeur d Alene, to our big old house on 9th and Penn where she raised the eight youngest children. Soon thereafter she began her long career with the Kootenai County Assessor?s office, retiring as deputy assessor. She worked full-time at a time when most mothers stayed home, and yet she managed to give her children everything they needed in life. Money was scarce, but her children felt rich. She took great pride in her home, keeping it tidy and clean, with meticulous flower beds. But she took the greatest pride in her children, always making sure clothes were clean, faces washed and hair brushed/combed, and they were well behaved. She knitted our mittens, sewed our dresses, made certain we were home for dinner, and hands down made the best turkey stuffing in the world. In later years, she knitted an afghan for each of her grandchildren as graduation gifts. They have their own fond memories of special times at Grandma?s house. It was a house filled with the love and laughter of family and friends. After Donald passed away, Emogene met Art Bessette at the Lake City Senior Center dances. They married and had several good years together traveling and dining out frequently. She loved to travel and two of the highlights of her life were a trip to the Holy Land and Rome with eldest daughter, Katherine, and most recently a trip to the Netherlands with youngest daughter, Nancy, where she visited cousins and was able to see the childhood home of her mother. She also made many trips to Burns Lake, B.C. to visit son Ron and family, where she enjoyed many a game of pinochle. Emogene was preceded in death by her parents, spouses Don and Art, brother John, sisters Vivian and Helen, daughter-in-law Deb (Karr) Shively, and grandsons Drew Swank and Brian Williams. She is survived by her 10 children: Katherine Allen, James (Butch) Shively, Robert Shively, Miriam Grobbel, Ronald Shively, Donna (Gary) Williams, Patricia (Don) Swank, Marilyn (Tim) Elgee, Carolyn (Bob) Denny, and Nancy (Bill) Kasner, 30 grandchildren, 47 great-grandchildren, and one great-great-granddaughter. Mrs. Bessette?s family thanks her for passing on to them her strong work ethic, pride, independence, wisdom, and endless capacity to love. Surely she will be rewarded in heaven for your life well-lived on earth. | (Hilliard) Shively, Emogene (I9010)
