Poppy Lee Massey

Poppy Lee Massey — Feb. 3, 2022 - April 30, 2023

Our sweet Poppy came into this world to share her love 15 months ago. Poppy made a huge impact in her short life and she knew how to live big. She was full of life and personality, even though her body did not allow her to express it normally. Her love for her family was abundantly present, even over the months that she lost her ability to babble, smile or move her body.

Poppy’s life was documented on TikTok, where our whole family found many supporters and new friends. Her videos are just one of the ways that so many people came to know and love Poppy. People from all over the world checked in daily to spot her infamous yawns, sassy thoughts, and soak up the life in her eyes. Poppy’s favorite thing was to float in her hot tub, “Pop Tub" to the little angel, which she was able to enjoy this spring.

Poppy’s life was a love story as people, near and far, felt God’s design for love through her. Poppy LOVED being with her siblings, listening to music and, most of all, being snuggled and kissed by her family. We’re comforted by the fact that our “Floppy Poppy” is now “Perfect Poppy” and she is free from her earthly disease. We believe in earnest that she is dancing, singing and showing her joy in heaven.

Yates Funeral Home is entrusted with arrangements. Please visit Poppy’s online memorial and sign her guestbook at www.yatesfuneralhomes.com
