I was so very sorry to hear of the passing of Avery. He was a special soul. I saw him about 2 years ago at my cousin Sonnie's church. It was such a delight for the both of us cause we haven't seen each other in years. His eyes lit up as did mine at the sight of seeing one another again. He looked so handsome as he always did whenever I saw him. One of the nicest people I knew. He is definitely gone too soon & I will miss seeing his smile every now & then. Be blessed Bass family. I will be praying for each one of you. I know how hard it is to lose a brother too soon:,-(.

Dear Bass Family,
I was so sad to hear of Avery's passing. I went to high school with him and will always remember his platform shoes & his awesome hair! But, more so, I will remember his kind and gentle nature and his love for helping people. He was such a sweetheart and anyone that knew him was better for it. I know he will be greatly missed.
