      'A message from Murray Bass to all his friends and loved ones.'
      Murray T. Bass was born in San Gabriel Canyon, California, on May 10, 1928.
      Married 60 years to a beautiful redhead, Zella Edora Bass. Lucky man.

      Mine was a genuine ashes-to-ashes life. Started as nothing with nothing and took nothing with me when I died. I had a good life. Not an easy one, but good.

      God guided my footsteps as I grew older. He made my life worthy and worth living with the help of wonderful friends. I have laughed and cried with the people I loved and who loved me. I became a better human because of my critics. They taught me when I was wrong, and reaffirmed my convictions when I was right. They helped me find the path to wisdom, a destination I was never quite able to reach.

      I have entered into the eternal vacuum of anonymity. While I will certainly be soon forgotten, I pray that some of the things I tried to achieve in my lifetime will continue to live through the lives I had a small part in changing.

      To everyone I leave behind I have these parting words, the lyrics of a song: "When you're all alone and blue, No one to tell your troubles to, Remember me, I'm the one who loves you."
