KARA LYNN MASSIE
January 11, 1991 ~ May 31, 2018

Kara Lynn Massie, 27, passed away on May 31, 2018 in Spokane, WA. She was born January 11, 1991 in Vancouver, WA, grew up in Yacolt, WA, and attended school in Yacolt, Amboy and Battle Ground, WA.
Following high school, Kara attended college at University of Wyoming in Laramie. During her time in college, she explored her interests in both psychology and physics. She held various jobs such as retail work, marketing and technical design, but perhaps the most important to her was the work she did for nonprofits.
Kara had a loving, kind heart and enjoyed caring for the young and the elderly. She was most at peace when she had a baby in her arms.
Kara enjoyed painting, sewing and spending time outdoors with her animals.
Growing up, Kara had many close friends and family and will be dearly missed.
She is survived by her parents, Daniel and Susan Massie of Yacolt, WA; four brothers and one sister, Michael Massie of Davenport, WA, Jennifer Urban of Vancouver, WA, Aaron (Beth) Massie of San Antonio, TX, Eric Massie of Yacolt, WA and Steven Massie of Yacolt, WA; her grandparents, Walt and Louise Reddig of Battle Ground, WA and Mike and Cheryl Massie of Knife River, MN; four nephews, one niece, and a great number of family and friends.
Kara was preceded in death by her sister, Emily Susan Massie.
Funeral services will be held at the Old Apostolic Lutheran Church in Yacolt, WA at 10:00 a.m., Friday, June 8, 2018.

Kara was one of my great nieces but unfortunately I never met her. I know she was absolutely beautiful and I am heart broken that her life was such a struggle. She was loved my many and it is a comfort to know she is in God's arms now with no more pain and suffering.
