Married Joseph Hugh Bass on 4 Jun 1960.
She was a full time housewife that raised 5 daughters. She was very artist and creative. She once built our family a couch out of lumber, and sewed all the fabric for it. I remember as a little girl her cleaning house and singing, I loved to hear her sing. She grew up in the Ozarks and told many tales of her childhood which were always very interesting to me. She also knew about wild flowers, and what they were called, which she passed along to me. She taught me how to read when before I was in school using a tape recorder and the words printed beside them (before hooked on phonics!)She loved watching Dr. Quinn medicine woman, and Zena. She owned all the Laura Ingalls Wilder books and insisted I read them too. She was an great artist and painted. She always wore Charlie perfume. She was amazing, and I still look up to her, she was my best friend. She was a good person and a Christian.
∼Shirley was born in the Ozarks of Missouri. She had a very rural upbringing, sharing chores with her twin brothers. She graduated from Tunas Missouri in 1958, and then made her way to her aunt Tabitha's house in Kansas city Missouri to stay until she was able to get her own apartment with friends. She worked at Sears. She met my dad Joe Bass in around 1959 where they started dating and got married on June 4, 1960. She quit working and became a stay at home mom. She always kept a spotless house. She was an intelligent, creative, kind, loving mother, and friend. I miss our daily phone calls. She was more than a mother to me, she was my friend as well. I know she is in Heaven creating something lovely.
