Darlene Bass Johnson
November 18, 1948 ? February 22, 2019

Even though the past few years were difficult, due to health issues, Darlene was a trooper. She fought and stayed positive; however, she was called home to be with her Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ on Friday, February 22, 2019.

All who knew her, knew of her generosity, as she had a difficult time saying no to those in need. From charitable organizations like St. Jude or Wounded Warriors to family members, she looked for the best in others. Her only down side was her ability to argue for what she believed in and boy were those conversations feisty. She leaves a void in our hearts and will be greatly missed.

She was preceded in death by husband, Edward Earl Dail; son, John E. Johnson II and parents, Lucille & Joseph Bass. Those left to rejoice in her life are grandson, John (Jae) E. Johnson III (Angeleah); siblings Danae Bass, Robert (Bobby) Bass (Julie), Laurie Burroughs (Rob), Lanelle Schmidt (Michael); great granddaughters Eris & Katie Johnson as well as many nieces and nephews.

Thelma was born in Kearney, Nebraska October 16, 1922 to Frank and Maude Bassett and grew up in southwest Hooker County with her two sisters, Dorothy 1921 and Jean 1928 and a brother Ray 1918. They lived in the same area until 1949 when they moved a short distance east. Thelma attended school in the Eclipse School (near Hamonda) the first 2 years then to the Ballard School to the east except for 2 years she attended school in Mullen. The Bassett children rode horseback to school, also to pick up their mail three times a week at the school. Thelma started to high school in 1937 but times were hard so she and Dorothy dropped out in December staying out the remainder of that year and all of the next. They then started again in 1939 and Dorothy graduated in 1941 with Thelma graduating in 1943 from Tryon where she transferred the last few months of her senior year. She met Bink in 1940 and they dated until he went to the Army in March 1942, he came home on furlough in November 1942 and they were married in hyannis in a double ceremony with Bud Edelman and Marjorie David. Bink returned to the Army and Thelma went to school and graduated. She spent the summer in Gering, Nebraska with Arthur and Frances Comstock, uncle and aunt and her cousin Leola. She applied for a rural school in southwest Scotts Bluff County and remained there to teach.
Bink went overseas to Germany in the early spring of 1944 and when school was out Thelma returned to Mullen. She applied for a school in Hooker County and taught the McPherson School staying with Ray and Myrlte Reigle in 1944-'45. When school was out she went to Hastings where her mother and sister Jean were working in a defense plant. The war ended in August 1945 and they returned to Mullen. Thelma taught the Furrow School that fall and she and Jean lived in a trailer near the school.
Bink returned home from Germany in October and he joined them at the trailer. Thelma resigned at Christmas time (by preagreement with the school board) and they moved to the A.J. Gragg place where they had employment. Jean continued to stay with them.
Wilson Ray was born in August 1946 and 1949, Bink and Thelma moved from Graggs and leased the Ireton land from Frank Bassett. They lived there for 1 year and then went back to Graggs in 1950. Franklin Don was born in October 1951. They bought the E.R. Sexton property 3 1/2 miles south of Mullen in 1952 and moved there in May 1953 to enable Ray to attend school. A school bus, driven by Jack Maire, picked the boys up all through their school years.
In 1960 or '61 Thelma began working as a "domestic engineer" 3 to 5 days a week and continued for about 15 years. When the packing plant opened up south of Mullen, she did their laundry for a time.
In 1960 Bink began working of the Cherry County Road Department and continued until 1985. During this time Thelma took care of the cattle and most of the chores around the place.
Ray graduated from high school in 1965 and went into the Navy for four yaers.
Don graduated from high school in 1970 and entered VecTech at Milford to study Auto Mechanics in 1971. Ray also entered just one school quarter after Don. Don graduated in June 1972 and Ray in October 1972. Don returned to Mullen to work and Ray went to Gothenburg to work in a garage.
Ray was married to Lana Olson in June 1972 and Don married Susan Hansen in May 1975. Angela Dawn was born to Ray and Lana June 5, 1976, Riley James December 4, 1980 and Traci Jo October 4, 1983. Ray and Lana moved from Gothenburg to Arnold in 1979 and purchased a garage.
Don and Sue built a house near Bink and Thelma's in 1976. Rae Ann was born to them on July 16, 1981 and Melissa Sue, November 30, 1986.
Bink had open heart surgery in August 1986 and has enjoyed good health since. Bink and Thelma buy a few calves each fall and sell them as yearlings the following fall. In 1987 the steers weighed and average 1036 pounds without any grain, a goal they have been seeking for sometime. They keep busy raising a garden and caring for their place now, but most of all enjoying their grandchildren.

Woodson W. Bassett, Sr.
Woodson William Bassett, Sr., was born April 24, 1880 in Iantha, Missouri. On January 23, 1919, he married Bertha (Bee) Irene Knerr, born August 19, 1893 in Allerton, Iowa, the daughter of George Frederick and Ida Corbett Knerr of Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Woodson and Bee had four children - Betty Jane, born January 8, 1920, Dorothy Sue born February 20, 1921, Trixie Bee born October 30, 1922 and Woodson William, Jr., born November 7, 1926. The family moved to Fayetteville in 1936.
Woodson's ancesters originated in Virginia and migrated to Kentucky. His grandfather, Thomas Bassett, moved westward to Clay County, Illinois in the mid 1800's. He was a veteran of the Mexican War. When he returned from the war, he became a wagon master, guiding settlers and herding cattle to California. His first trip out and back took two years. He attempted a second trip by boat to establish a homestead for this family. He sailed from New York around the "Big Horn" to the Isthmus of Panama where he "took a fever" and died. Thomas was married to Nancy Ann Smith. They had three children - John Wesley, a teacher, Sarah Ann and Nathaniel.
Nathaniel "Than" Bassett was born March 18, 1854 in Clay County, Illinois. He married Elma Jane Williams, born in 1858. They went even farther west to Iantha, Missouri. They had three children: William Oscar, Woodson William and a daughter, Irkle Bell. Jane died when her youngest child was but two years of age. "Than" then married Ann Nance. They had one son, James D. (Jim) Bassett. A measles epidemic in 1901 caused the death of Irkle Bell. She was only seventeen. "Than" homesteaded a two-hundred acre farm in Haines Grove, Missouri. Editor of the Lamar Democrat often referred to him as the democratic leader of Barton County - a political avocation, all three of his sons and one great-grandson would inherit. Both Woodson and Oscar served as Clerks of Barton County, and Jim spent a major portion of his life as elected sheriff of Barton County. Oscar moved to Okmulgee, Oklahoma where he was elected to two terms as County Commissioner. He was joined there in the early 1900s by Woodson and they became successful, even quite wealthy, in the independent oil and gas leasing business. However, the 1929 market crash and ensuing depression swept their fortunes away and forced them to emotionally and economically restructure their lives. Oscar died of "a heart ailment" in 1934 and his family moved to California. In 1935, Jim witnessed the bizarre death of his nineteen year-old son, Maurice, who was a passenger in a monoplane which crashed near his father's office on the downtown square of Lamar, Missouri.
Family tragedies, economic depression and the pressing need to provide for and educatte their children, were all factors which motivated Woodson and Bee to move their family to Fayetteville in 1936. They could be near Bee's family and near a state university. All their children would eventually attend the University of Arkansas.
Woodson opened an office on the Fayetteville square and sold insurance and real estate and made appraisals for the Home Loan Bank. When their youngest child entered the University of Arkansas, Bee became an assistant to the registrar there, handling all World War II student veteran's affairs.
Woodson died December 6, 1964 and Bee, on September 7, 1971. Both are buried at Fairview Memorial Gardens, Fayetteville, Arkansas.
The only remaining males in the Bassett geneological lineage of Thomas, Nathaniel and Woodson W. Bassett, Sr. are Woodson W. (Bill) Bassett Jr. and his two sons.
Bill is the senior member of the Bassett Law Firm, 221 North College Avenue, Fayetteville, Arkansas. On December 16, 1950, he married Marynm Shaw of Homer, Louisiana. They have three children: Woodson William (Woody) Bassett, III, born November 3, 1951 in Monroe, Louisiana; Beverly Marynm Bassett, born May 29, 1953 and Tod Corbett Bassett, born September 8, 1955 - both in Fayetteville, Arkansas. All are attorneys. Woody and Tod are members of the Bassett Law Firm. Woody is charman of the Washington County Democratic Party. Tod is married to the former Mary Helen Sugg of Fayetteville. Beverly was a member of the Mitchell Law Firm of Little Rock, Arkansas until her appointment by Governor Bill Clinton as the Securities Commissioner for the State of Arkansas - first woman to hold this position in Arkansas. She is married to Archie Schaffer III of Little Rock and they have one daughter, Eliot Shaw Schaffer, born June 11, 1987.

Woodson W. Bassett
Woodson W. Bassett Jr., 79, of Fayetteville died January 10, 2006, at his home, surrounded by his family. He was born November 7, 1926 in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, to Woodson W. Bassett Sr. and Bee Knerr Bassett.
Known to all as "Bill" he grew up and lived most of his life in his beloved Fayetteville, where he raised his family and practiced law for 43 years.
He was preceded in death by his parents and one sister, Betty Williams. He is survived by his loving wife and soul mate of 55 years, Marynm Shaw Bassett, whom he married on December 16, 1950. He is also survived by one daughter, Beverly Bassett Schaffer and her husband, Archie Schaffer III of Fayetteville; two sons, Woody Bassett of Fayetteville and Tod Bassett and his wife, Mary Sugg Bassett also of Fayetteville; two grandchildren, Eliot Shaw Schaffer and Corbett Clayton Bassett ; two sisters, Dorothy B. Edwards of Mountain Home, Arkansas, and Trixie Bassett Finn of Dermott, Arkansas; one brother-in-law, John N. Shaw and his wife, Marion of DeRidder, Louisiana; and five nephews and three nieces.
He received his education in the Fayetteville public schools and later at the University of Arkansas, where he graduated from the School of Law in 1949. After 13 years of work in the insurance field, he embarked on a legal career and began practicing law in 1962 when he joined the firm of Dickson, Putman, Millwee and Davis, which in later years became known as Putman, Davis, Bassett, Cox and Wright. In October of 1981, he joined his two sons to establish and build the Bassett Law Firm, where he was senior partner, mentor and leader until his death. He was greatly admired and respected by all those with whom he worked at the law firm.
He set a fine example for other lawyers and was a teacher and an inspiration to many young lawyers over the years. He was widely recognized as an extraordinary trial lawyer, as evidenced by his induction into the American College of Trial Lawyers. He was at his best in the courtroom. His life, both personal and professional, was marked by much success and many accomplishments, but at his request, they will not be recited. To use his words, "It will suffice to say I grew up hard but married well, fathered three good children, and with little natural talent, worked very hard and ethically to succeed as a lawyer. I lived the best way I knew how and had a good and long life. My wife, Marynm, and my three children are my epitaph, making it important that I lived at all."
A memorial service will be held at Central United Methodist Church in Fayetteville on Tuesday, January 17, 2006 at 2 p.m. under the direction of Moore's Chapel. Memorials may be made to Washington Regional Hospice, 34 W. Colt Square Drive, Suite 1, Fayetteville, Arkasas 72703; Fayetteville Public Library Foundation, 401 W.

Oscar moved to Okmulgee, Oklahoma where he was elected to two terms as County Commissioner. He was joined there in the early 1900s by Woodson and they became successful, even quite wealthy, in the independent oil and gas leasing business. However, the 1929 market crash and ensuing depression swept their fortunes away and forced them to emotionally and economically restructure their lives. Oscar died of "a heart ailment" in 1934 and his family moved to California. In 1935, Jim witnessed the bizarre death of his nineteen year-old son, Maurice, who was a passenger in a monoplane which crashed near his father's office on the downtown square of Lamar, Missouri.
Family tragedies, economic depression and the pressing need to provide for and educatte their children, were all factors which motivated Woodson and Bee to move their family to Fayetteville in 1936. They could be near Bee's family and near a state university. All their children would eventually attend the University of Arkansas.
Woodson opened an office on the Fayetteville square and sold insurance and real estate and made appraisals for the Home Loan Bank. When their youngest child entered the University of Arkansas, Bee became an assistant to the registrar there, handling all World War II student veteran's affairs.
Woodson died December 6, 1964 and Bee, on September 7, 1971. Both are buried at Fairview Memorial Gardens, Fayetteville, Arkansas.
The only remaining males in the Bassett geneological lineage of Thomas, Nathaniel and Woodson W. Bassett, Sr. are Woodson W. (Bill) Bassett Jr. and his two sons.
Bill is the senior member of the Bassett Law Firm, 221 North College Avenue, Fayetteville, Arkansas. On December 16, 1950, he married Marynm Shaw of Homer, Louisiana. They have three children: Woodson William (Woody) Bassett, III, born November 3, 1951 in Monroe, Louisiana; Beverly Marynm Bassett, born May 29, 1953 and Tod Corbett Bassett, born September 8, 1955 - both in Fayetteville, Arkansas. All are attorneys. Woody and Tod are members of the Bassett Law Firm. Woody is charman of the Washington County Democratic Party. Tod is married to the former Mary Helen Sugg of Fayetteville. Beverly was a member of the Mitchell Law Firm of Little Rock, Arkansas until her appointment by Governor Bill Clinton as the Securities Commissioner for the State of Arkansas - first woman to hold this position in Arkansas. She is married to Archie Schaffer III of Little Rock and they have one daughter, Eliot Shaw Schaffer, born June 11, 1987.

Kathryn J. Bassett (1931 ? 2019) Picture included)

Mary Kathryn Johnson Bassett, 87, of Richmond crossed over on February 15, 2019 after a valiant battle with cancer.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Samuel Walthall Johnson and Ogilvia Arrington Johnson of Bedford County, Virginia, and her loving husband, John Paul Bassett Sr., of Sharon, Connecticut.

"Kitty" was born in Roanoke, Virginia on April 21, 1931 and lived in Bedford, Virginia where she attended Franklin School, a one room school in Bedford County. Her mother either took her to school in a horse and buggy or she had to walk four miles to Franklin School and back in the evening. By the early 1940's a bus picked up students and took them to Stewartsville School.

Her family then moved to the family farm in Fincastle, Virginia where Kitty graduated from Fincastle High School. She attended Ferrum Junior College, where she was head cheerleader, and graduated from Virginia Tech in 1954 with a bachelor's degree in Home Economics. She was employed at the Virginia Tech extension service, and she met John who was a civil engineering student on the G.I. Bill. Kitty and John married in 1956 and stayed happily married for 61 years. They lived briefly in Staunton, Virginia where John worked for VDOT and in the early 1960's they moved to Richmond where they lived out their lives.

In addition to raising four children, Kitty worked at Jack and Jill nursery school in Richmond, and then spent the majority of her career in retail furniture sales at Miller & Rhoads, Hecht's and Macy's . Kitty enjoyed spending time at the family farm in Fincastle Virginia, the outdoors, gardening with the neighborhood garden club, good furniture, and above all, spending quality time with her children and grandchildren, all of whom she has had a profound and enduring impact on. She attended Trinity United Methodist Church and later the West End Assembly of God.

Kitty is survived by her loving children Nancy, John Jr., William, and Susan Kish (Tom); and her beloved grandchildren Taylor, Catherine and Caroline Bassett, and Sarah Kish; her sister Alice J. Sweeney of Galax, Virginia; and several nieces and nephews.

Visitation will be at Woody Funeral Home, 1771 Parham Road Richmond, VA, Saturday February 23, 2019 at 1 p.m. followed by a memorial service at 2 p.m. Interment will immediately follow at Greenwood Memorial Gardens.

Peter Bass
February 18, 1936 ? December 5, 2023

It is with heavy hearts; we share the sad news that Peter Bass of Ocean Twp, NJ passed away peacefully on 12/5/2023 surrounded by his family. Although Peter survived prostate cancer 6 years ago, unfortunately, just a few short months ago, we learned it had metastasized into his bones.
Peter Bass was born February 18, 1936 to Harry and Estelle Bass, in Newark, NJ. He grew up with his brother Steven and sisters Karen and Marilyn in Plainfield. Peter was the Sports Editor of his High School yearbook, then attended and graduated from Syracuse University. He continued on to University of Virginia where he graduated with a Juris Doctorate in Law. Afterwards, he came back to the Jersey shore and began practicing law in Freehold. In the summer of 1963, he met and fell in love with Ellen Rockoff. They were married in 1964 and had their children, Todd and Marlo. Peter loved coaching some of the sports teams his kids were on while also being an active member of Temple Beth Torah. He loved playing cards, doing crossword and jigsaw puzzles, and in addition to reading, he was a huge sports fan. Peter's love of food led to his love of travel which he paired with his love of the theater. In addition to Broadway, Peter truly enjoyed all musicals and live concerts, that included a variety of musical genres. Over the last 10 years, Peter looked forward to being a "Snow Bird" by splitting his time between Florida and NJ.
Peter is survived by Ellen Bass, his son Todd (Jessica) Bass and daughter Marlo Byrne. Peter was a beloved Grandfather to Abigail (a.k.a. Rowan) and Lucas Bass, along with Sabrina and Kyra Byrne.
