With heavy hearts and loving memories, we announce the passing of Bessie Jean Cadle-Wascom who passed away on October 11, 2026, at the age of 77.

Bessie was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and sister whose memory will forever be cherished by the family she loved. Though her passing leaves an immeasurable void in the hearts of those who knew and loved her, the memories she created and the love she shared will continue to live on through the generations of her family.

Bessie is survived by her devoted husband, George “Bill” Wascom, and her three sons: Douglas W. Cadle (wife, Mary Jergins), Harold Anthony Cadle, and Shaun Dewayne Cadle (wife, Nicole).

She also leaves behind four cherished grandchildren: Douglas K. Cadle, Kory Levi Cadle, Jacob Carson Cadle, and Andrew Shaun Cadle, who will forever hold a special place in their hearts for their grandmother.

Bessie is also survived by her sister, Judy VanBever (husband, M. O.), and her brother, Kenneth McCartt (wife, Cathy). She will be deeply missed by her family, whose love and memories will remain a lasting tribute to her life.

Although words can never fully express the sorrow of losing someone so dear, we find comfort in knowing that the love Bessie gave will never fade. Her life was a part of the foundation of her family, and her memory will continue to bring comfort, strength, and love to those she leaves behind.

She will be forever loved, forever missed, and never forgotten.

May she rest in eternal peace, surrounded by the love that will always keep her close in the hearts of her family.
