Crystal Bass

BASS, Crystal Eileen, 52, went home to be with the Lord on Tuesday, Oct. 4, 2016.  Her strong will to live, unwavering faith and the love and prayers of family and friends provided her strength and comfort.

She is welcomed home by her father, Mitchell G. Bass; three siblings, Mitchell Bass, Jr., Diana Wilson and Cynthia Bass; and a nephew, Robert Ali Bass.

Though Crystal’s time on earth may have ended too soon, we are thankful for having her in our lives. Her life was a complete one in so many ways; she lived it to the fullest through simple pleasures, such as chatting with friends and family, snacking and spending time with her son, nephews and nieces.

Some of her favorite times out and about were to watch the children play sports, having lunch with friends and playing the arcade games at Chuck E. Cheese’s.

Crystal had an unwavering faith in God. She was a member of Christ’s Community Church. Over the years, she had become very involved with the youth ministry and supported many of the church’s activities and fellowships.

Crystal worked at EGF Financial Care, a venue she utilized to support and share the gospel with others until she retired in 2014 due to her illness.

She leaves her loving memories to be cherished by her son, Cameron Bass; her mother, Ethel Bass; five siblings, Michael (Patrice) Christian of Pickerington, OH, Kareena Ashby Bass of Kennesaw, GA, Allura (Stefan, Sr.) Hargrove of Chicago, IL, and Tony Bass and Meeta Bass of Steubenville, OH; a host of nieces and nephews; and so many who called her friend.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate her life at the Mount Carmel Baptist Church located at 708 North 5th, Street, Steubenville, OH, on Saturday, Oct. 8, 2016, from 10 a.m. until time of funeral services at noon. Interment at Union Cemetery.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the Vinson House of Mortuary, 711 North 5th Street, Steubenville, OH.
