of 88 after declining in health over the past year. She resided at Orilla’s Way of Grant City, MO where she was lovingly cared for and pampered.
Ticky (as she was known to all) was a formidable force and could be counted on to enliven any event. She is survived by her loving husband, Carl Hass, Jr., after being married for 39 years. In addition, she leaves a big family who will miss her dearly. They are: Barbara Hall (Dick) of Bella Vista, AR; Jeanie Claytor (Tim) of Kansas City, MO; Michelle Ross of Phoenix, AZ; and Ginger Skaggs (Jes) of Dearborn, MO as well as 12 grandchildren (one waiting to greet her in Heaven), nine great grandchildren, many nieces and nephews, and many, many friends.
She is preceded in death by her parents (Liva and Alta Mae Wrinkle) and her three siblings: Berneta Walker, Hoyt Wrinkle and JR Wrinkle.
Ticky grew up in the Camden Point, MO area and attended school there. She went to the reunions faithfully every year. She worked hard all of her life at many jobs and hobbies using her skills in farming, sewing, cooking, gardening, wallpapering, school bus driving, antiquing and just plain manual labor. In 1966 she landed her dream job at TWA as a mechanic in the upholstery shop. After 23 years, she retired in 1989 leaving many memories and close friends. TWA allowed her extensive travel opportunities that she readily took advantage of with Las Vegas a favorite destination with Poker being her game of choice. She used her self-taught sewing skills throughout the years to sew or repair many boat cushions, pillows, curtains, etc.
Ticky was happiest when at the Lake of the Ozarks swimming, fishing, entertaining or just relaxing on the dock. She lived a full life and she would tell anyone to do the game. Savor every day, watch Wheel of Fortune, watch the Royals and Chiefs with passion, take a young one fishing, play video games; just LIVE! As she always said, “You’re not getting any younger!”
Visitation will be held 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 18, at the Camden Point Baptist Church, and the funeral will be Friday, May 19 at 2:00 p.m. at the same location. Burial services will be at Camden Point Cemetery immediately following the funeral service.
In lieu of flowers, it is suggested donations to Children’s Mercy Hospital of Kansas City, MO or Mosaic Life Care Hospice of St. Joseph, MO (Stanberry, MO location).
Arrangements are through Hixson-Klein Funeral Home and condolences may be made online at www.hkfuneralhome.com.

Barb and Jeannie, so sorry to lose such a fine and fun person. We had many a fun weekend at the lake. She always taught me that if anything is worth doing its worth doing right. Kind of a private joke but I still use the phrase. Wish I could be there to say good bye but she knows we all love her. You girls take care of yourselves and the grandbabies.

Ticky was a ROCK who I thought would live forever. So sorry to hear she’s gone. We were neighbors in Platte City for 18 years and she taught me alot about gardening. Man oh man she could grow ANYTHING and did. From onions, tomatoes, egg plant, strawberries, potatoes, asparagus, turnips, beans, peas, herbs, you name it it was in her garden. She’d be out there every evening when I got home from work working that garden but when 6:30 came she’d drop that hoe and it was time for Wheel of Fortune! Wow I miss those days. She will be missed. RIP Tickey.
