    Notes 

    • Caveat: it is not clear from this obituary if Deliah Leslie is the wife of Luther Don Bassett or if the sons Allen and Randy are her sons or her step-sons. The son named Dwayne Smith may be a son by a previous marriage. Researchers are suggested to research these conflicting facts carefully.
