LAS VEGAS AGE - 1/3/1924
 
MRS. MASSEY PASSES AWAY IN SAN FRANCISCO

	Mrs. Annie Sheehan Massey, widow of the late Senator W. A. Massey
 of Nevada, died in San Francisco recently, following an illness that had kept her 
in a hospital there for a year and a half.  For several months Mrs. Massey's condition 
had been such that her death was not unexpected by members of the family.  She had 
been a sufferer from pernicious anemia for several years.
	Mrs. Massey was born in Geneva, N. Y., in 1868, but had lived nearly 
her entire life in Nevada, being brought to this state when a child, first settling in 
Elko.  She was married to Senator Massey, then a justice of the State Supreme Court 
in Elko in 1896, removing to Reno shortly thereafter, and making this city her home 
continuously until she left for San Francisco for medical treatment.
	Four sisters, Mrs. C. G. Smith, of Winnemucca; Mrs. Abbie Morrow, of 
Reno; Mrs. Dora Thompson of San Francisco, and Miss Neil Sheehan, of Elko, and 
one brother, Jerry Sheehan, vice president of the Reno National Bank, survive.  All 
with the exception of Mrs. Morrow and Mr. Sheehan were at the bedside when the 
end came.  Mrs. Morrow reaching San Francisco a few hours later and Mr. Sheehan 
arriving the next morning.
	Interment was made in Cypress Lawn cemetery in San Mateo county, just 
south of San Francisco.  - Reno Gazette
