My condolences to Jimmy's family, he will be sorely missed. He was my barber since 1985 until he retired and I always enjoyed our conversations as he snipped away. I will miss him and will remember his wit and wisdom as long as I live. My deepest sympathy to his family, but take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you and that Jimmy is finally at peace.

Miss You Always, Cathy & Trixie

March 1, 2013

I express my sincere condolences to the family of my friend, Jimmy Bass, who was a treasured friend over the years. Jimmy and I shared a common love of the B-westerns from the 1940s and had many conversation about our childhood heroes like Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, and others. He was a gracious man with a generous heart and a marvelous wit. A few days before I got married in 2001, Jimmy gave me, as a wedding gift, a perfect haircut. He said, "That's from me to you." What a man. I shall miss him deeply.
