Patricia Ann Massie

Saco

The Washington Capitals lost a huge fan as Patricia Ann Massie passed away suddenly on January 24, 2024.  Born August 3, 1943, the daughter of the late Louise (Plourde) Massie and Charles Cobban Massie, Sr. and stepdaughter of Wanda Ann Massie.

Patty was always proud of growing up in Camp Ellis and in Saco, and graduating from Thornton Academy in 1961.  She often shared stories of her school years cheerleading and playing basketball & field hockey.   Early on, Patty worked at Pinard's Lobster Pound in Camp Ellis, and Allied Shoe in Saco.  In the Fall of '61 she left Saco to work for the FBI in Washington D.C., then transitioned to the Federal Energy Regulation Commission retiring at the age of 55. Patty lived a happy and active life in Falls Church, VA returning to Saco Maine in 2022 to live with family. Patty was a season ticket holder to The Washington Capitals Hockey Team - GO CAPS!! - and was part of tennis and softball teams, bowling leagues and 'parties' where she made wonderful lifelong friends.

A definite cat lady, Patty even named one of her cats "Saco".  Her family was lovingly subject to countless cat stories over the years.

Patty was predeceased by her mother Louise Massie in 1949, by her father Charles Massie in 1994, and her step-mother Wanda Massie last year.

She is survived by a daughter Karen and husband Wayne Bryant and grandchildren Jeremy & Tyler, of Wayne, ME; and three siblings: Michael and wife Joyce Massie of Highland, CA, David Massie and partner Dot Nolette of Arundel, and Chuck (Radar) Massie and wife Jane Caron with whom Patricia resided in Saco.  Patty was dearly loved by the Musgrave family in Saco, the Parada, Jones & Neufeld families in California, the Fromm family of Arizona, the Massie families of OOB and Tennessee, the Murray families of South Portland, Biddeford and Oregon.  She will be greatly missed.
