Maria Massie Bryant Bogia, age 100, of Lynchburg, died Wednesday, July 15, 2020 at Runk & Pratt, Liberty Ridge in Lynchburg, Virginia.
Born June 17, 1920, at her home “Bellevue” in Nelson County, she was a daughter of the late Robert Lee Massie and the late Alice Irvine Jackson Massie Nalle. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband’s Rolland Skow Bryant (1989) and James Todd Bogia, Sr. (1997); her son, Robert Massie Bryant; her step-son, James Todd Bogia, Jr.; both of her sisters, Florence Kimbrough Massie Simpkins and Alice Jackson Massie Hilbish, and her step-brother, Billy Nalle.

Maria was a life-long member of Grace Episcopal Church, Massies Mill. She loved God and was devoted to her family. She loved people and she appreciated the solitude of her home. Living almost six years at Runk & Pratt, she came to consider her caregivers and friends there as her family.
The family wishes to thank all the many friends who added so much to her life.
