Tony Massa

Tony Phillip Massa, age 65, of North Little Rock passed away Tuesday January 14, 2020.

On March 27, 1954 Tony was born to Adrian and Lois Massa in Little Rock. As a young altar boy at Saint Patrick’s Catholic Church he was taught good values and those carried through his life. Family was his priority, always putting them first (it was the Catholic Italian in him). Also he was loyal friend and happy to help in any way.  He was a diehard Razorback fan, loved the outdoors - especially hunting and fishing. He was a hard worker and retired from Pat Salmon and Sons, where he was a truck driver.  Tony will be fondly remembered by family and friends for his infectious smile, quick wit, charismatic charm and ability to make the ladies smile.

Tony was preceded in death by his parents, Adrian and Lois Massa, and his daughter Tonya Massa.

He is survived by his son Marc (Shannon) Massa, daughter Jennifer (Tyler) Runyon, brother Chuck Massa, sisters Sandy Fugate, Karen Massa and Adrianna Massa, grandchildren: Branden Massa, Aryonna Massa, Trinity Massa, Adrian Massa, Matthew Brundage, Joshua Brundage, Landen Brundage, Jacob Brundage and Asher Runyon, special Aunt Nancy Wilson, Aunt Joann Odom, Uncles Charles Ray and Donald Ray, and a host of nieces and nephews.

The family wishes to extend their sincerest gratitude to the staff of CARTI in North Little Rock for their compassionate care they provided Tony.

Visitation will be from 5:00 to 7:00 PM, Friday, January 17, 2020 at Smith-North Little Rock Funeral Home.  Funeral will be 10:00 AM, Saturday January 18, 2020 at the funeral home with burial at Arkansas Memorial Gardens.
