Bill Bass was a very godly man. His faith and family were his life. We are so blessed that God gave him to us. He was a wonderful husband, father, friend, g-dad and big daddy. He loved to tell stories about his life. He always had time to share stories with anyone he met. Everyone was naturally drawn to him for his giving spirit and kindhearted ways. He loved to travel, hunt, fish, play golf, work at his tire store and most of all spend time with his family. Liz and Bill just celebrated 63 years of marriage on the 20th of June.
