John W. Massey Sr.

I remember grandpa John and grandma Helen (and Penny) coming out to California when I was little. I remember sitting in the airport watching the plane come up to the gate. I wish I had been able to visit you in Elmira, it just never worked out and it seemed you would always be there. We did talk on the phone and we still have the clock you made for us on our mantle. I'm glad you received your medals before leaving us. Sorry grandma for your loss, and I'm glad you do have family in Elmira...

To The Massey Family,

I was sorry to hear of your loss. I remeber the good times I had at the Massey home. Jim and I spent many days together playing football and lifting weights. I remeber the times we sat around the diner table and ate the remaining corn off the cob that Mrs Massey had been cooking. I think back on those years with great fondness. I especially remeber all the things that Mr Massey made with his hands. I was so impressed. May God Bless you all at this time.

Dear Massey family,
I was a long time friend of Jim's. I spent many Sunday afternoons with the family enjoying dinner. I remember John as a quiet man, but with a quick wit. John is now with Jim and is at peace. My thoughts are prayers are with you.

To the Massey Family - I am very sorry for your loss. I worked with him at The Glass Co. for a few years before he retired. May he rest in peace. God Bless You All

Dear Ike and Family. I am so sorry for your loss of your father. I know that is hard, remember all the good times and happy moments you all had together. It helps some along with time to heal. I went to school with Ike and just wanted to say Prayers and Angels to you all. God Bless you. Connie Granger

Thank you for being the best grandfather ever! My heart is so sad right now. I will always remember my trips to Elmira....and having Ginger Ale with you at dinner, a Sour Cream cookie after dinner and of course, Coconut Ice Cream. You were not only an incredible Grandfather, but a remarkable father and man proud of his country. While my birth name was my fathers, I took the Massey family name when I turned 19 years old because the Massey family was always there for me and for my mom. It was...
