Read More	Wava Sue Bastarache, 64, of Des Moines, passed away Saturday morning, May 16th, 2020, just a week after her son passed away while working at Bridgestone Firestone. Wava's sisters went to her home to pick her up to go to her son's funeral (Jonathan Schmidt) being held at 1:30 p.m. Saturday, when they found she had passed - away obviously from the broken heart of losing her son one week prior. Wava Sue Schmidt was born in Marshalltown October 24, 1955. She was the 5th of 6 children born to Delbert and Velma (Perry) Schmidt of rural State Center. She graduated from West Marshall High School in 1974. Wava Sue went to school to receive her LPN license. She worked in nursing homes in Marshalltown starting in 1982. She was a very caring person and was well liked by the residents. Wava Sue then worked at Westwood and worked with troubled youths. When her mom needed care in July 2006, she resigned and moved to Des Moines to care for her until she passed away in 2009. Wava Sue then took a job at Eyerly Ball, now Unity Point, working in a group home. She helped clients in the transition of going from group care to living on their own. She was a very good listener. She had a calming effect on her clients and was well-liked by all the staff. Wava Sue enjoyed hand-quilting, watching movies, playing computer games and going out to eat. She loved kids: ones of her favorite things to do was taking off a baby’s shoes and socks and count their toes. She was typically very calm and easy going, but if she got mad, watch out. She was mad all over! Her son, Jonathan was her entire world! At Jonathan’s funeral, he was called a mama’s boy. Wava’s nickname for Jonathan was “her one and only.” When he died she asked, “What am I going to do now?” Wava Sue is survived by her siblings: Wanda Kay Schmidt of Altoona, Wilma Albee of West Des Moines, Wendell (Mary) Schmidt of State Center and Warren (Carla) of Marshalltown, along with many nieces, nephews and cousins. She was preceded in death by her son, Jonathan, her parents Delbert and Velma, and her brother Wayne Schmidt.
