BERNE — Janice Irene LeBuis Bassler, a Berne native and life-long resident, was active in the Hilltown community and enjoyed entertaining family and friends with her husband.  Mrs. Bassler died on Thursday, April 10, 2008.  She was 72.  
'''LEO N. LeBUIS'''


“Janice was an enthusiast for family and social life,” said her family in a tribute. “She and Pete enjoyed frequent entertaining of family, friends, and large community gatherings at the family pond and cabin. Her gardens there reflected her energetic and meticulous character.”
Services were held Monday for Leo N. LeBuis from Berne Reformed
Church.


The oldest of Doris and Leo LeBuis’s seven children, Mrs. Bassler was born during the Depression and had a “take-charge” personality, said her daughter, Debra Bajouwa.  She graduated in 1953 from Berne-Knox High School. She then worked at General Electric in Schenectady, where she contributed to one of the earliest computerized payroll systems.  
Born in Albany Feb. 10, 1912, Leo LeBuis attended Albany High School. On August 20, 1935 he married Doris Filkins. The couple enjoyed their golden wedding party a short time before he entered St. Peter's Hospital where he died Nov. 28, (1985).


In 1956, she married her high-school sweetheart, Fred “Pete” Bassler, while he was in the United States Army, serving in Alaska. She dedicated herself to her family and was the proud mother of three daughters — Terrice, Debra, and Sharon.  
Leo was a life-long resident of this area and served several years as a business clerk at the Berne-Knox Central School. Later he worked at General Electric during the war years and then with Klersy Builders in Delmar. After his retirement he continued part-time work as a carpenter with his son-in-law, Pete Bassler.


For many years, Mrs. Bassler worked evenings and weekends at the Zwicklbauer Hofbrau restaurant on Warners Lake.  
Active in the Berne Fire Co. for 41 years, he was awarded life membership in the company and was secretary of the fire district commissioners. He was also a member of the Berne Ambulance Squad, a member of the greater consistory of the First' Reformed Church of Berne where he sang in the choir. He was active in the Hilltown Senior Citizens.


An active member of the Hilltown community, she served for many years as the volunteer ambulance dispatcher.  During elections, she staffed local polling stations. At the Berne Dutch Reformed Church, she sang in the choir and served in many capacities.  
Survivors include his wife, Doris Filkins LeBuis; four daughters and three sons: Mrs. Fred (Janice> Bassler, Berne; Mrs Merrit (Diane) Chamberlain, Billings, Mont.; Robert LeBuis, Barneveld (Oneida Co.); Mrs. Dennis (Marlene Boomhower, Westerlo; Donald LeBuis, Mokena, Ill.; Charis Haskin, Saratoga Springs; and Dennis LeBuis, Berne; his brother, Wilfred LeBuis, Colonie:, and, one sister, Irene McCaffrey, Latham. He is also survived by twenty grandchildren and six greatgrandchildren.


A skilled hand at bridge, Mrs. Bassler played competitively and was a regular at Studio Bridge in Schenectady. She was also an avid reader and devoured biographies and novels and was curious about the world around her and always eager to express her perspective.  
Rev. Robert Hoffman officiated at the Memorial Service. Leo's daughter Diane designed the program "A Celebration of the Fulfillment of Life for Our Friend Leo N. LeBuis," and the music was provided by his brother Wilfred and his daughters Marlene and Charis. Tributes to their father were written by his son Robert and daughter Charis and read at the service. His granddaughter Debbie Bassler created many of the floral arrangements and pall-bearers were six grandsons: Jeff, Joe, and, Jerry LeBuis, Dean and Ross Haskin, and Mark Boomhower.  


Later in her life, Mrs. Bassler knitted over 700 scarves.  She also traveled widely with her husband, visiting four continents and 49 of the 50 states.  She delighted in planning trips and ferreting out special places to stay and sights to see.  In the winter of 2007, the couple traveled to Hawaii, Australia, and New Zealand.
Arrangements were by Fredendall Funeral Home, Altamont, with burial in the South Berne Cemetery. Memorial contributions may be made to the First Reformed Church of Berne or to the Berne Ambulance Fund.

In 1997, with great joy, Mrs. Bassler welcomed the birth of her granddaughters, Abigail and Sarah, twin girls born to her daughter, Sharon, and her son-in-law, Scott.
 
“The girls’ daily lives, love for their grandmother, Mima, and accomplishments were among the greatest pleasures of her final years,” said her family.  “She felt fortunate that Debra and husband Haytham moved in just down the road to restore Peter and Sarah Bassler’s family home.  The humanitarian career and global adventures of her daughter Terrice were a source of keen interest and connection to the wider world.”
