| 3259 | Wing Mortuary ? Lehi ? 3 February 2025 M. Chris Bassett M. Chris Bassett, 73, passed away peacefully, in the early morning, on January 31st, 2025, with his eternal sweetheart, Cathy, at his side, after a long battle with complications from Parkinson's disease. Chris was born on March 25th, 1951, as the fourth child to Walter and Ruby (Clark) Bassett. Walter and Ruby divorced when Chris was a toddler. Ruby later married Ralph West. Chris grew up in their blended family in Pleasant Grove, Utah. Chris learned to be a good mechanic from an early age. He received a car at age 15, and since he couldn't drive yet, he completely tore it apart and put it back together, including a new rebuilt Chevy engine. He had a knack for figuring out how things worked and could fix anything. After graduating from Pleasant Grove High School, he was called to serve an LDS Mission in the West Germany Mission. His mission was cut short due to injuries from being hit by a car while riding his bike. He met Cathy Colleen Thompson in 1968, at a church Stake dance. After Chris' mission, they were married and sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on June 25th, 1971. Chris and Cathy initially lived in Provo but moved to Orem, where they started their family. Their first three children (Bryan, Chad, Dustin) were born while living in Orem. Chris worked at Boyer's Automotive in Provo. He was a hard worker and excelled as a proficient auto mechanic. Chris and a longtime friend often worked on project cars. He built the motors while his friend handled the paint. In 1976, his 1957 Chevrolet truck clinched first place at the Utah Autorama, a prestigious classic hot rod competition. He loved reminiscing about that award-winning truck, which he proudly kept throughout his life. In 1975, Chris began working at Gene Harvey Chevrolet as a mechanic and soon became the Service Manager, serving for nearly 40 years in total. "Mr. Harvey" was like a father to him. To Chris, the dealership was more than just a workplace - it was like family, and he cherished the mechanics and the team that kept it running smoothly. Throughout his career, he earned numerous accolades, including Service Supremacy Awards and multiple Rocky Mountain Chevrolet Dealers Service Manager of the Year honors. Chris consistently went above and beyond, touching countless lives with his dedication both at work and everywhere else. Chris always put his family first, helping them in every facet of life. He also helped friends and strangers alike, regardless of what they needed. Chris and Cathy moved to Lehi, Utah, in April of 1976, and continued to grow their family with three more children (Todd, Amy, Trent). Amy, the only girl of six children, was always referred to as his "little princess." Chris was a devoted father and grandfather who cherished spending time with his family. He loved coaching his children's baseball, basketball, and soccer teams, as well as sharing in their many adventures. Together, they enjoyed both snow and water skiing, boating, jet skiing, and camping-always embracing the thrill of the outdoors. Chris had a passion for hobbies that connected him to loved ones. He enjoyed hunting and fishing with his grandpa Clark and Uncle Dee, a tradition he later carried on with his own children and grandchildren. His love for outdoor adventures was matched only by his enthusiasm for anything with a motor. As a true racing enthusiast, he had a deep passion for NASCAR, especially his favorite driver, #3 Dale Earnhart Sr. Chris was a devoted member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and served in many callings, including two Bishoprics. He and Cathy also served together as missionaries in the Church's Addiction Recovery Program. Chris had a deep love for service, especially when it involved mentoring young men. He cherished his time in the Young Men's program, particularly a memorable trip paddling the lakes and rivers of Yellowstone National Park at Camp Loll with his sons. One of his greatest sources of pride was seeing all five of his sons earn their Eagle Scout Award and serve missions, and his daughter achieving the Young Women's Recognition Award. He was a man of faith and testimony, quietly living his beliefs. Chris was always there to support and uplift his family with love and encouragement in all their endeavors, alongside his eternal sweetheart. Cathy was the love of his life and his greatest support. She cared for him devotedly until he departed from this life. His life and huge heart touched everyone he met, leaving a lasting impact. We love him with all of our hearts, and he will be deeply missed. Chris is survived by his wife, Cathy, six children: Bryan (Suzie), Chad (Terral) Dustin (Kate), Todd (Jennifer), Amy (Milo) Lines, Trent (Whitney), twenty-six grandchildren, and two great grandchildren, four brothers, Ike, Theo, Kerry, Stacy, and two sisters, Linda and Carleen. He is preceded in death by his fathers, Walter Bassett and Ralph West; mother, Ruby Clark; sister, Toinette Barnson; and brother, Sid West. Funeral services will be held Saturday, February 8th, at 11:00 AM, at the Lehi Utah Meadow View Stake Center at: 851 North 1200 East, Lehi, Utah 84043. Viewings will be held on Friday, February 7th, from 6:00 - 8:00 PM, and again Saturday from 9:30 - 10:30 AM at the same Stake Center.

| 3266 | Wood Funeral Homes & Crematory Enid (Bassett) Littlefield April 25, 1942 ? December 20, 2021 ?Here?s my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above.? Enid Kay Bassett Littlefield gave her heart to the ?God she loved? and was called home on Monday, December 20, 2021. Having been diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer at the end of May 2020, she exemplified grace and courage as she accepted God?s will for her. Thankfully, He blessed this world to have her warmth and kindness for an added year and seven months for which we are forever grateful. Enid, or Eddie as she was known by her friends, loved to tell people that she had been born and raised in Wyoming, which meant that she was tough. She was born on April 25, 1942, to Leah and Paul Bassett and enjoyed a sweet childhood growing up in the small town of Lovell with her four siblings?Clark, Myrtle, Sharleen, and Craig. She was a shy, tiny, blonde-haired, brown-eyed girl, with a wonderful wit and joyful soul. She was known among her classmates for never having a hair out of place or a wrinkle in her clothes. She was amazed and humbled by the out-pouring of love from her classmates in her last few years and spoke of them all with great fondness. Though she had traveled and lived all over the world, she always counted Lovell as her home. After graduating from Lovell High School in 1960, Enid attended BYU in Provo, Utah, where she met her husband, Gary. He said that he saw her walking on campus one day, ?this beautiful, blonde girl,? and knew that he was going to marry her, and he did on May 24, 1962, in the Salt Lake City Temple for all eternity. She often said that he was the only man she ever loved. He drove her crazy, but he was ?the love of (her) life.? That?s when the real adventures began. In 1965, they were living in Orem, Utah, when their first child, Tianne, was born. Enid adored being a wife and mother, and she devoted the rest of her life to this calling. Her second child, Polly, was born in 1967, and this family of four enjoyed a few years of quiet simplicity until Gary took a job in Iran. They lived in Ahwaz, Iran for two years while Gary helped establish the country?s steel mill, and they loved it! They took advantage of their time overseas and traveled all over the world which she counted as a wonderful blessing. When they returned to the states, they moved to the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, where they were blessed with their third child, Jill, in 1974.

| 3279 | Wright Funeral & Cremation Services Theresa Renee Bass October 15, 1956 ? November 22, 2022 Theresa Renee Bass, a devoted family woman and significant grassroots leader in Kennett Square, died unexpectedly in her sleep at her home in the Historic East Linden Neighborhood on Tuesday, November 22nd, 2022. Born in Ashe County, North Carolina, Theresa came to Kennett Square in 1959, eventually moving with her six siblings to a historic home at the heart of the Borough in 1971. Her mother, Ophelia Bass, was the rock of the family, and Theresa was devoted to her, caring for her at home through a long illness. As a young child, Theresa helped support her hard-working mother by caring for her younger siblings, and she never wavered in her dedication to her brothers and sisters: Harold Creon Bass and Avery Allan Bass, who predeceased her, and Grayling Bass, Drusilla Butler, Michael Bass, and Lesia Bass, all of New Castle County, Delaware. She and her siblings, along with her life-long friend Barbara Williams, led legendary social lives as part of a tight-knit, small-town community. Theresa was a 1976 graduate of Kennett High School. Theresa, called Sissy by family, purchased a home near her mother and worked long hours as a machinist while raising her own children, Jermaine A. Bass, LaToya M. Myers, and Tara N. Irons. After an on-the-job accident, Theresa devoted herself entirely to community leadership and to helping to raise her grandchildren, who were her light and her hope: Payton Ophelia Corp, Taliyah Renee (Ren) Irons, and Ariella Nicole Irons. Theresa was also trustee of Bethel AME Church in Kennett Square, and participated actively in many community groups, from Playback Theater to Bridging the Community. Other interests included drawing and painting, local history, gardening, word searches, and fast cars. She had encyclopedic knowledge of the region?s African-American families and the relationships between them, and found many ways to lend a personal helping hand whenever she could. As a community organizer, Theresa?s innovative spirit and commitment to action were remarkably effective. Determined to stay when homes began to fall into disrepair and levels of street violence rose, Theresa brought neighbors and allies together to focus energy on the needs of children, and she was tireless in her efforts to provide meals, academic help, social activities, coats, holiday gifts, and constant personal support to children and youth. She pioneered a humane approach to discouraging adverse street life in partnership with three successive police chiefs, relying on direct communication and encouraging personal relationships to win the peace. The founder and leader of the Joseph & Sarah Carter Community Development Corporation, Theresa and the social movement she inspired profoundly improved the Historic East Linden Neighborhood, the Borough of Kennett Square, and the region. Her particular commitments to supporting immigrant families, making connections across social boundaries, and investing in humanity were transformative; these were rooted in her deep faith, and Theresa?s tireless service was shaped directly by a deeply prayerful devotion to the Lord. She had many friends across the region; she was powerfully influential in local government; and she was a vital, positive force in the lives of generations of children and young people. In addition to her siblings, children, and grandchildren, Theresa is survived by her siblings? spouses and their children: Harold?s son Jaheem; Grayling?s spouse Donna and their son Curtis; Drusilla?s husband Barry Butler and their son Aaron; and Michael?s wife Lisa and their children Sharí, Ashley, and Malcolm. She is also survived by her uncle, George McMillan. Her father, Isaac Cox Bass, predeceased her. A service of remembrance will be held at the Episcopal Church of the Advent 401 N Union Street, Kennett Square on Thursday, December 1, 2022, at 11:00 AM, with viewing beginning at 9:00 AM. Burial at Union Hill Cemetery will follow. A recorded conversation with Theresa Bass about her life and activism is available in the StoryCorps archive at https://archive.storycorps.org/interviews/theresa-bass-and-ethan-cramer/ Flowers may be sent to church on the day of the service.

| 3293 | COMMEMORATIVE BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD OF WINDHAM COUNTY, CONNECTIC Augustus Bassett During the busiest part of his well directed life, Augustus Bassett was identified with business interests in Danielson, Windham county, where his death occurred several years after his retirement, Dec. 25, 1899. He was not only a shrewd financier and public-spirited citizen, but he performed t inestimable service to those around him of making them forget their troubles, and look on the happy side of life. He was a delightful wit; a gifted raconteur, and had the faculty of appreciating a joke at his own expense. He enjoyed music and flowers and the beautiful things of this world, and carried around with him a disposition which sought out the pleasant rather than the disagreeable. Such have always a host of friends, and build up memories in the hearts and minds of all who know them. Mr. Bassett was born on the paternal farm in Killingly, Jan. 21, 1821 a son of John, and grandson of John Bassett, the latter of whom lived and died on his farm in the northern part of Killingly. John Bassett, the father of Augustus, was born in Killingly, and after the death of his parents succeeded to the possession of the home far built the house now standing on the farm, and in the course of time greatly increased his landed possessions. He was a general farmer and stock raiser and through hard work, economy, and natural thrift became one of the largest land owners and most successful business farmers in the town. His personal appearance carried out the general impression of worth conveyed through his attainments for he was more than six feet tall, of splendid proportions, and was considered very fine looking. In his prime he could accomplish an enormous amount of hard work, more than any of his sons were ever capable of, and his unusual activity remained with him until a short time before his death June 22, 1859, at the age of eighty-nine years and ten months. He was a Whig politically, and held a few town offices, and he was a devout member of the Congregational Church, towards the support of which he was a liberal contributor. He had much to do with the building and subsequent maintenance of the Dayville church. Twice married, the first wife of Mr. Bassett was formerly Lucy Walker, of Killingly, who died Oct. 16, 1814, at the a forty-three. She was the mother of seven children, all of whom became respected and useful members of the community of Killingly. For a second wife Mr. Bassett married Susan Grinman, of Thompson, Conn., who died Dec. 31, 1852 at the age of seventy-two. The children of this union were as follows: Betsey, the wife of Abel Williams, who taken sick on the voyage to Europe, and after her death in London, was interred in Greenwood cemetery, Brooklyn, N.Y., and Augustus. In his youth Augustus Bassett saw more of the work than the pleasure or profit of farm life, and when comparatively young began to cherish ambitions remote from the occupation of his forefathers. Notwithstanding that his labors extended from the rising to the setting of the sun, he managed to qualify as a teacher in the public schools, and at the age of fifteen h started upon a career of teaching, many of his pupils being both older and larger than himself. In the meantime his wages were drawn by his father, who, up to his twenty-first year, placed them unbeknown in the bank, to the credit of his son. This fact did not develop until after the death of the older man, and it was then found that his parental forethought had resulted in a nice little sum. While teaching, Augustus worked on the farm in the summer time, his father having given him the farm as an inducement to continue to devote his life to that occupation. He remained in possession of the homestead unt after the Civil War, and then, because of his aversion to country life, sold the farm, and purchased a saw and grist mill of Deacon Ezekiel Burlingame, at Attawaugan. For about a dozen years he made a fair success of his milli business, eventually disposing of the mill to Charles Young, after which he purchased a grain and feed store in Danielson, of Deacon Burlingame. In the feed business he was ably assisted by his son, Charles W., and continued to do business in a room in the Exchanged Block, until the death of his son. He then disposed of the enterprise, and lived comparatively retired for the rest of his life. His declining years knew no bitterness because of long continued illness, but he rather maintained a cheerful demeanor, and the same effervescent jollity of mood in the wake of his declining powers. Up to the last he liked to be surrounded with friends, and was particularly partial to hitching up his horse and taking his friends to drive. On May 18, 1848, Mr. Bassett married Sarah Jane Walker, born in Medway, Mass., Aug. 9, 1820, a daughter of Clark and Sarah (Lovering) Walker. Clark Walker was a successful farmer of Medway, and himself and wife lived retired for many years, eventually dying at the home of their son-in-law, in Danielson. To Augustus Bassett and wife were born the following children: (1) Anna Lovering, born Sep. 7, 1849, was a graduate of Aiken Seminary, owned by her aunt, Mrs. Williams, and died unmarried, July 29, 1887. (2) Fred Eugene, born June 23, 1853, was professionally trained in medicine under Dr. Joseph E. Winters, of New York City, and at the College of Physicians & Surgeons, New York, from which latter institution he graduated with honors. He has a very large and lucrative practice at Rye, N.Y., and is a man of means and extended popularity. Oct 15, 1884, Dr. Bassett married Harriet L. Williams, of which union there are three children: Wilfred Walker, born Oct. 25 1885; Dorothea Lovering, born April 29, 1889; and John Clarke, born Oct. 29, 1890. (3) Charles Warren, born Jan. 1, 1856, was his father's assistant in business, and met death by drowning at Thompson, Conn., while out with a party of friends, Aug. 13, 1875. (4) Lewis Augustus, born Dec. 24, 1859, died Sept. 6, 1860. (5) Nellie Walker, born May 30, 1861, and died Feb. 14, 1865.

Dak., and became interested in the banking business with Edwin Davis, formerly of Danielson, as cashier of the Langford National Bank. He later established the Aberdeen National Bank, at Aberdeen, S. Dak, and at the present time is president of both the above mentioned institutions. He resides at Aberdeen, and is a very successful man and fine financier. On June 29, 1892, Mr. Bassett married Harriet J. Galbraith, of Minneapolis, Minn., and of this union there are four children; Ruth Lovering, born May 17, 1893; Helene Walker, born Sept. 5, 1894, Marjorie, born Aug. 2, 1896, a Clarke Davis, born Nov., 1898. Mrs. Bassett, beloved for her many admirable personal qualities, and rich in the possession of many well spent years, retained her mental and physical alertness, until her death, Sep.6, 1902. | Bassett, Augustus (I04702)
