Donnie Ralph Bass, 68, of Beebe, Arkansas, passed away Sunday, November 22, 2015. He was born February 6, 1947, in Beebe, to Paul "Mutt" Bass and the late Ora Mae Scroggs Bass.
He served as a proud United States Marine in the Vietnam War. He loved black Ford trucks, 3:00 a.m. Wal-Mart trips, Saturday morning trips to the Beebe Flea Market, animals, hunting and fishing. He gained many great friends from his graduating class of 1965 from Beebe.
Donnie was a very loved son, brother, uncle, and friend. He was always willing to do anything to help someone. He enjoyed visiting with Larry Kemp, Johnny Porter, C.L. Bass, and Rick Gamble. They had lots of great times. His nieces, Linda Whitt and Teresa White, always brought a smile to his face. And we can't forget his "Little Buddy", Julie White; they were always into something. He also enjoyed visits from his nephews, Glen Bass and Todd Watts.
He is survived by his father, Paul "Mutt" Bass; two brothers, Jim and Jerry Bass, all of Beebe; one sister, Barbara Watts of Rison; and a host of family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his brother, Leslie.
Family will receive friends from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. Tuesday at Smith-Westbrook Funeral Home, Beebe. Graveside service will be 10:00 a.m. Wednesday, November 25, 2015, at Meadowbrook Memorial Gardens. Arrangements by Smith-Westbrook Funeral Home, a certified Veterans Care provider.
