Description
Lois P. Bass, 85, is interviewed by her daughters Peggy Bass Bridges, 57, and Cindy Bass Emery, 59, about her life growing up and about how she met her husband.Subject Log / Time Code
Lois always knew she was adopted but one day snooping around she found her adoption papers which revealed the circumstances of her adoption: her birth father had committed suicide.
When she was a child Lois says that she “was probably about as mean as they come.”
She attended the same high school as her biological brother and sister whom she got to know and stayed in touch until they passed away, though they never felt like family.
She met her husband while she was training to become a nurse and his younger brother was setting him up on a date while he was on leave from the navy.
For some reason they broke up and she later got engaged to an old high school boyfriend.
The most fun time she remembers having was horseback riding with her daughters and husband.
