 In Memory

Edwin Bassett died on Dec. 7, 1985, after a valiant battle. He loved Amherst and occasionally returned for visits or lectures. Those of us who knew him remember him as a gentle, kind, fun-loving and reliable fellow who would never pass a beggar or anyone else who asked without giving him/her some money. Randy Wieck ’77 gave a tribute to Ed at his memorial service.

We will always be thankful for the 31 years of love and joy he brought to the lives of his family and friends.

Alan D. Greene ’76
