LINDA FAY MASSEY ~ Class of 1966 Honorary
December 5, 1947 - May 27, 2022



Linda Fay Massey was born December 5, 1947 to William James and Edna Cleo (Barnes) Massey in Richland and spent her 74 years in this area. Her father and mother were originally from Tennessee and took a job working for DuPont in 1944 that located them in Richland.

Linda attended Jason Lee Grade School, Chief Joseph Junior High School and Richland's Columbia High School with the Class of 1966.

She worked in the agriculture industries as a sorter and packer in Sunnyside and Grandview until retiring when she turned 62.

Linda was an active member of her community, volunteering at the food bank for at least 10 years and was an involved member of the Eagles until her health issues began in 2004 causing her to slow down.

She worshiped at the Seventh Day Adventist in Sunnyside, WA and was very excited and proud of becoming a deacon in the Church and loved tending to their flower garden.

Linda is survived by her daughter, Jeannie Thompson (Todd) who was born in 1967; and her sister, Mary E. Massey Holloway ('64), who she was very close to as they are only 20 months apart in birth. She will be much remembered by her two grandchildren, Kendra and Tyler Thompson; and many much loved nieces and nephews; as well as Kim Cornwell who remained a close friend and a great help to her even after their divorce in 2013.

She is preceded in death by parents, William James and Edna Cleo (Barnes) Massey; and her brothers, James Oliver Massey ('48) and William Morris Massey ('54).

Inurement will be held at Einan’s Sunset Memorial Gardens in Richland. A Celebration of Life will be held at the Seventh Day Adventist Church which is located at 1875 E. Lincoln Avenue in Sunnyside, WA on July 10, 2022 at 12:00 pm.
