RoJean Massey went to be with the Lord on November 9th in Hobbs, NM.  She was born in Roosevelt County near Dora, NM, and graduated from Dora High School.  She moved to Portales and attended Eastern New Mexico College just long enough to meet her future husband, Ivey, who she married on May 11, 1945.  While waiting for Ivey to return from service in the Navy, she worked for AAA office.  RoJean assisted her husband in the insurance business in Hobbs for about 40 years.  She enjoyed being a homemaker and mother, crocheting, embroidering, gardening.

In 1958, the Masseys became charter members of Taylor Memorial Baptist Church.  They were both members of Gideons International for 50 years.  RoJean was also very involved in the Women's Missionary Union at her church.  She loves God and enjoyed serving Him.
