DAVID BASS WAS PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST LAID BACK PEOPLE THAT EVER DREW A BREATH.ONE TIME HE TOLD ME THAT HE DIDN’T HAVE A DRIVERS LISCENSE BECAUSE HE DIDN’T NEED ONE BECAUSE HE NEVER LEFT PALM VALLEY.HE WAS AFFECTIONATELY NAMED THE UNOFFICIAL MAYOR OF PALM VALLEY.COOTER BROWN WAS ANOTHER ONE OF HIS HANDLES.YOU COULD SEE HIM CASUALLY STROLLING ALONG THE ROAD OR LEANING ON THE RAILING OF THE OLD COMMUNITY CENTER..KNOWN TO HOIST A BEER AT THE FISH CAMP ,NORMA’S OR THE BIG CYPRESS LIKE MOST OF US DID ON OCCASION.HIS SALVAGE YARD SEEMED TO KEEP HIM WELL FED AND HAPPY.DAVID EVEN HAD A CAMEO APPEARANCE IN A MOVIE AT EDDIE FEAS’S FISH CAMP WHICH EDDIE RENAMED AFTER THE MOVIE ‘S NAME FOR IT WHEN USED AS A SET DUBBED IT THE BLUE MOON SALOON.
HIS PASSING WAS A GREAT LOSS FOR US ALL BUT HIS SOFT CASUAL SPIRIT STILL WHISPERS AS ONE DRIVES ALONG CANAL BLVD ON A SLEEPY SUMMER DAY….TERRIFIC SENSE OF HUMOR THAT GUY..ALWAYS WONDERED IF HE WAS JUST PUTTING ME ON.ABOUT THAT LICENSE THING
