CLARINDA HERALD-JOURNAL, Clarinda, Iowa, Jul 25, 1977

Mae Ellen Bashor, daughter of Ida (Wirth) Combs and Charles Combs was born March 9, 1895 at New Market, Iowa, where she spent her entire life and departed from this life July 2, 1977, at the Clarkson Hospital, Omaha, Nebraska, at the age of 82 years, 3 months and 23 days.

On November 25, 1913, Mae was married to Arnold Bashor and to this union five children blessed their home; Dalphon, New Market, Iowa; Donald, Corning, Iowa; Dorlene Graham, Nevada, Iowa; Helen Herzberg, Creston, Iowa; Charles, Clarinda, Iowa.

Mae devoted her entire life doing good for her family of which was her most precious possession. Sharing with them their happiness, their sorrows and her greatest high-light was the many visits from her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and all of her many friends. Her happiness and patience was an inspiration to all who came in contact with her. Mae was a member of the Methodist church of New Market, the Order of the Eastern Star, the Auxiliary and the Lindsey Club of which she was a faithful helper.

Mr and Mrs Bashor were extremely privileged to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary November 25, 1973, when all of their family were with them. She was preceded in death by her husband, Arnold, departing May 13, 1974, her parents, three sisters, Lena, Pearl and Velma and four brothers, Harry, Dewey, Johnnie and Glen.

She is also survived by three daughters in law, Rosevelyn, Beverly and Maxine, two sons in law, Dick Graham and Ben Herzberg, 14 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren and a host of very dear friends.

To know Mae was truly to love her for her very actions, thoughts and workings were prompted by God’s loving care.

She always leaned to watch for us.

Anxious if we were late,

In winter by the window;

In summer by the gate;

And though we mocked her tenderly

Who had such foolish care,

The long way home would seem more safe.

Because she waited there.

Her thoughts were all so full of us--

She never could forget!

And so I think that where she is

She must be watching yet.

Waiting till we come home to her.

Anxious if we are late --

Watching from heaven’s window

Leaning from heaven’s gate.


Funeral services were held July 5 at the Walker Funeral Home with Rev Ron Blix officiating. Shirley Larson was soloist. The grandsons, Ronald Bashor, Terry Bashor, Jimmy Bashor, Kevin Herzberg, Lanny Herzberg, Brent Herzberg, and Dan Bashor, were casket bearers. Burial was in the Memory Cemetery at New Market [Iowa].
