FULL OBITUARY NOTICE FOR: Massa, Dorinda: MRS. DORINDA MASSA - The death angel visited this section and claimed for its victim Mrs. Dorinda Massa. She died Dec. 11 and was buried Dec. 12 at the Boiling Springs cemetery. She leaves seven children, thirty-eight grandchildren, and a host of friends to mourn their loss, the children being Norman and Oakley Massa of Cookeville, Dillard Massa, Mrs. Jim Lollar, Mrs. Liza Rice, Mrs. Oma Howell and Mrs. Adaville Howell all near Baxter. Grandma was a devoted Christian, having belonged to the Missionary Baptist church for about forty years. She was loved by everybody who knew her. She went to Cookeville Sunday, Dec. 10 and died next morning. We never know when we will have to leave this world. The thing for us to do is to be ready. Some of these days I will meet my dear grandmother in a world where no parting or sorrow ever comes. She was 74 years, 11 months, and 11 days old. -- A GRAND-DAUGHTER [Date: 12/14/1916, Vol. XIV, No. 50, Page 1] THE PUTNAM COUNTY HERALD
