About	Delcie Anita Stephens (Bass) of Sarasota passed peacefully on Nov. 16, 2014, surrounded by her family. Delcie was stricken with MDS cancer (Myelodysplastic Syndrome). Delcie was born Feb. 22, 1947 in Madison, FL. Delcie is survived by sons, Gary, Michael, and Andrew; sister, Nona; grandchildren, Faith Ann and Alexander; niece, Stephanie; daughters-in-law, Kelly and Elizabeth; former spouse, Kenneth; and dogs, Penny and Bear. A veteran nurse, Delcie enjoyed cooking, fishing, camping, and antiquing. She is remembered for her laugh, kindness, hospitality, and love for family. A friend wrote, “Delcie, you were a true Southern girl in all aspects, you were so kind in many ways...I will never forget your hospitality, friendship, or generosity. You always had a way with words and you made me laugh, even when I didn't want to... Tears roll down my cheeks as I write this tribute. This is the woman who literally saved me during Hurricane Katrina & nursed me when my own Mom was sick. Delcie, with your Southern Charm and your witty ways, you always made me laugh, you humbled me when I needed it, and you were a great friend to me from the moment we met. You have made a lasting impression and I will never forget you. I look forward to seeing you again...and I know that I will. I hope that when I finally see you again, you will be in your camper in the Great Hills of NC!
