Dana Sass Obituary

Dana S. Sass, age 65, of Quincy, died on Friday, January 21, 2022, in her home. She was born on February 21, 1956, in Quincy, Illinois. She was a graduate of Quincy Notre Dame and Maryville College. She married Jon E. Sass on December 23, 1981. He survives. Dana was an administrative assistant for the Quincy Public Schools for 32 years, serving in numerous capacities over the years. She attended St. Peter Catholic Church.

She was an avid Blue Devils fan and could not be missed in the stands with her cowbell. She enjoyed camping, fishing and hiking. She was also a fan of the St. Louis Cardinals.

In addition to her husband, she is also survived by:

HER MOTHER: Carroll A. Hill

FOUR CHILDREN: Jason Sass and his wife Sarah; Amy Mayberry and her husband Bill; Adam Sass and his wife Julie; and Elisabeth Sass.

SIX GRANDCHILDREN: Gretchen Sass and Sophia Sass; Mikayla Mayberry and Morgan Mayberry; and Graham Sass and Declan Sass.

Numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and other relatives also survive.

Dana was preceded in death by her father Donald R. Feld, maternal grandparents, Harold and Elizabeth Hoener and two brothers: John R. Feld and James I. Feld

Dana knew that there was good in everyone and there was always a warm meal and a hug at her house for anyone who needed it.
