Sonia S. Bass, currently of Barefoot Bay, Florida and formerly of Toledo, Ohio, passed away peacefully in her home on Sunday, November 13th, 2016. Sonia was born in Herrick, Illinois on September 3, 1939.
Sonia spent the last 15 years enjoying the Florida sunshine, dancing and personally financing every juke box in town. Sonia's passion for living, meeting new friends and spending time with old friends was only outdone by her love for her children and especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Connie and Lucille Stevenson and her former husband, Ron Bass. Sonia is survived by her longtime companion, Robert Guerrero; son, Michael (Amy) Bass; daughter, Chris (Bob) Batey; daughter, Lisa (Pat) Shanahan; and grandchildren, Bobby (Lexy) Batey, Ben (Allie) Batey, Joel (Tara) Batey, Courtney (Mike) Mason, Nicole (Sean) Navarre, Caroline Bass, Michael Bass, Jamie Reed and Darby Shanahan, Megan Shanahan and Molly Shanahan "The Blondies". Also, ten great-grandchildren, who affectionately knew her as "GG."
