Mrs. F.A. Bass Died Friday Afternoon
Interment Was Had At Paytonville Cemetery, Ashdown, Ark.
Mrs. F. A. Bass, 74, died Friday afternoon at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. Herbert Dooley, in this city, and the remains were laid to rest at Paytonville cemetery at Ashdown, Ark., Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. Bass had been ill for several weeks, and little hope had been entertained for recovery. She came to this city about fourteen years ago from Ashdown, Ark., where she had resided for many years. She had many friends, both in Ashdown and Idabel. She was a consistent member of the First Methodist church, of this city, and was a splendid woman.
Funeral services were held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Dooley Saturday morning at 10 o'clock, conducted by Rev. J. O. Peterson, pastor of the First Methodist church, assisted by Rev. Bert G. Jones, pastor of the First Presbyterian church. A large concourse attended the funeral, and the floral offerings were most beautiful. Mrs. E. E. Keys, Mrs. Dorothy Holman, F. E. Wade, and Earl Hendrix sang "Must Jesus Bear The Cross Alone," "Asleep In Jesus" and "In The Sweet Bye and Bye."
Mrs. Bass is survived by four daughters, Mrs. B. H. Baggarly, DeQueen, Ark.; Mrs. John Medley, Mrs. J. Herbert Dooley and Mrs. Lawrence Anderson, Idabel; two sons, Joe Bass and Delphen Bass, Ashdown, Ark.; nineteen grandchildren and two sisters, Mrs. Ella Moon, Lockhart, Texas, and Mrs. Mary Keith, Tulsa.
Pallbearers were: Robert Whiteman, Carl Griffin, Horace Hamilton, Herman Smith, C. A. Sasser and Verlie Hall.
The remains were taken to Paytonville cemetery by Chappell funeral home.
