CORA JEAN GUSS

October 19, 1952 was blessed day when Cora Jean Guss was born to Eugene Guss and Bessie Mae Guss in Birmingham Alabama.

Cora was the oldest daughter to this union. Her parents left Birmingham and moved to San Diego California, when she was four years old, and resided in San Diego her childhood years and her entire adult life. When she was a child, she was given the endearment love name Bae Bae by her paternal grandfather, Thomas Guss Sr. and was named after her paternal grandmother Cora Guss. Cora was a loving and caring person and one of her greatest attributes was loving her children and family. She was always the protector of her younger siblings.

Cora attended the San Diego Unified Schools from Brooklyn Elementary to San Diego High. She enjoyed singing and dressing to the “T” and dabbled a little in modeling. Cora was raised in the Church and loved to sing in the church choir. She loved the “Lord” and accepted Christ at an early age.

Cora has ended her earthly journey. She is reunited with her father, Eugen Guss Sr, her mother Bessie M. Guss, her sister Bessie M. Roxanne Bernard, her son Andre. They all will meet again in her heavenly home.
