There is an empty space in my heart that friend Geneva once filled. She was my first friend when my family moved to Arkansas 75 years ago. Geneva lived about a mile down the road from us, her daddy ran a country store. She will be missed by many.

We were so very sorry to hear of Geneva's passing. She held a special place in our hearts as she was so very loving and caring to our family and my sister and her daughter in law Vicky Cannon Massey. When Vicky became ill and unable to care for her precious son Cory, Geneva and Delbert took him into their home and raised him as their own with the help of his father Gary. Geneva often told me she would do things with Cory that she knew Vicky would have done if she were able, My condolences go out to Terri, Gary and all of Geneva’s family. Cory I am especially thinking of you and your precious family.

Geneva Massey was one of the most precious, loving, and godly women I’ve ever known. As a child, she welcomed me into her family and loved me like one of her own. I will always be grateful for the warmth and grace she gave so freely. Heaven surely gained a beautiful soul
