Helen Massey Warren's Obituary
Helen Massey Warren, 88, passed into the arms of her Heavenly Father on
September 6 at Twin Rivers Health and Rehabilitation Center, Arkadelphia, Arkansas, surrounded
by her family.
She was born on April 8, 1929 in Leakesville, Mississippi to Willie and Addie (Shepherd) Massey. In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her older sister, Lucille Rodgers, Lucedale, Mississippi, her two younger brothers, Grady Massey, England UK, and John (J.P.) Massey, Escatawpa, Mississippi.
She lived a full and productive life and was a wonderful mother to her daughter, Sherron Garner, and her son-in-law Steve Garner, Arkadelphia, Arkansas; a wonderful "Nan Nan" to her grandchildren, Stephanie Garner, Bryan, Texas and Elizabeth Barnett (Lee), Hot Springs, Arkansas; and to her great-grandchildren, Garner and Cadence Barnett, Hot Springs, Arkansas. She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews.
Some of her favorite pastimes were gardening, feeding birds, working jigsaw puzzles, and ceramics. She had a great love of chocolate, and always kept a full candy bowl for family or guests. For many years her constant companion was her Jack Russell, "Chrissy." Helen possessed a mischievous fun-loving spirit which carried on even as her Alzheimer's progressed. She worked the majority of her adult life in the optical business in Mobile, Alabama until moving
to Arkadelphia to be near her daughter.
