My father always spoke very highly of Bishop and Mrs Bassett. He enjoy Mrs Basset would come to his office and share with him all her children’s accomplishments, which from my fathers account were very impressive I remember going to a cookout with my family as a young boy and sitting on Mrs Bassets lap. She loved everyone. I can’t remember how many degrees there children had that my Dad shared with Me but he really admired the accomplishments
My condolences for the loss of the Bassets. They did life right by anyone’s score card

The Emmanuel Church of God in Christ Family extends deep and heartfelt sympathy to you all in the home going of our beloved Bishop Hurley Bassett Sr. He was a beloved dear father, grandfather, relative, friend, spiritual overseer, and child of the King. Bishop Hurley Bassett Sr. was a father to us all. Bishop would talk with authority in the general assembly when there would be Jurisdictional services. Bishop allow our church to house with East University Church of God in Christ, when our local church was unable to be relocated. We remember all the good times with Bishop. He taught us well. Bishop and mother Bassett will always be remembered as spiritual parents in the Lord. Jesus wept, as we will too. Only what you do for Christ will last. We thank God also for the Bassett family how you have shared your parents with us all. Bishop had a strong presence on this earth. Remember the good times you all have spent together that you can treasurer in your hearts forever of him. Jesus cares.
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would
have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” St. John 14:1-2
To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. Thank God for eternal life in Christ Jesus. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you for strength and increased faith, now and in the days to come.
