We all gathered together on Sat. Sept 20th (before the engagement party) afternoon to spread my Grandpa, Clarence Merritt Bassett’s ashes next to my Grandma, Katherine Meyer Bassett…

Above is the tree carved with their initials marking the spot. It was very special even though it has almost been two years since he passed for each of us to go around and share a memory or something we will never forget about Grandpa and the amazing Man of God he was.

This is the crew…there are still quite a few missing that live out of the country and in other parts of the USA.

Then our ‘silly’ picture:

1st Row:
From Left: Tia Mary Bassett, Amy Wells (Tio John Bassett’s daughter), Bobby Osborn, John Carson Wells (7), Rylie Wells (just turned 11), Laura Cisneros*, Hannah Doery*, Myself, Cordie, and James Benge. (Tia Mary’s son)

2nd Row:
From Left: Tio John Bassett, Lucas Wells, Elizabeth Osborn, Betty Osborn, Tia Ana Cisneros, Erica Cisneros (baby in arms is Mila June-8months old), & Junior.

3rd Row:
From Left: Don Osborn, Michael Osborn, Alaina & her mother Candace, Donald Osborn, Jose (Laura’s Fiance) and Antonio Cisneros.

As an ending note to them both (though they will never be forgotten) we sang the chorus of a song my Grandpa would sing to Grandma Katherine.

“K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy,
You’re the only g-g-g-girl that I adore;
When the m-m-m-moon shines,
Over the cowshed,
I’ll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door.
K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy,
You’re the only g-g-g-girl that I adore;
When the m-m-m-moon shines,
Over the cowshed,
I’ll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door.”
