Christine Elizabeth Bass

Christine E. Bass, age 53, peacefully entered eternal rest on June 9,

2026, after a courageous battle with cancer.

Born in Yazoo City, Mississippi, Christine spent her childhood years

In Chicago, Illinois, then later made her home in Louise, Mississippi,

where she built lasting relationships and created cherished memories

with family and friends. She was known for her warm heart, vibrant

spirit, and unwavering love for those around her.

Christine was preceded in death by her beloved mother, Edna Bass;

her father, Chester Jenkins; her grandparents, Leroy Bass,

Josephine Bass, Alice Jenkins, Coleman Jenkins, and her

brother, Curtis Bass.

Throughout her battle with cancer, Christine never stopped fighting for

strength, courage, and grace. Her resilience and determination served

as an inspiration to her family and friends, and her faith carried her

through life’s challenges with dignity and hope.

Christine leaves to cherish her precious memory her loving daughter,

LaPorche’ Steward Towers; her son, David Steward Jr.; her

cherished grandsons, Malik Steward, Davion Wells, and Makhi

Towers; her brothers, Tyrone Bass, Johnny Mims, and Howard

Mims; her sisters, Alisa Bass, Tina Bass, Selena Bass, and Lucinda

Mims, Chichundra Mims, Hildarea Mims, and Khristi Mims, along

with a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and extended family members,

and dear friends whose lives were enriched by her love and presence 

“Her life was a blessing, her memory a treasure. She is loved beyond

words and missed beyond measure.”

Forever loved, forever remembered, and forever missed.

Though our hearts are heavy with sorrow, we take comfort in

knowing that Christine’s love, kindness, and beautiful spirit will

continue to live on through the many lives she touched
