Mary Bass-Ghee
Our Dear Beloved
Thru all of us, you shall live on, even though
Home
Earthly
Rest You now dear lady in our father’s fold

On January 10, 2019 the lights went dim in room 207. The Lord had called her up. My mother was a good mom and a very good teacher. She taught me that there was no greater love than a mother’s love. In the wee hours of the morning she told her beloved Robert she was ready to go home, and with God being merciful, he took her home. Now she is with her King. We all will miss her dearly, but the gift is Gods.
She was a jewel.

– Your oldest daughter, Kim
