Our 2014 Fourth of July Treat

Happy Fourth of July! As we celebrate this Independence Day with parades, cookouts and fireworks, we honor our nation’s history, heritage and freedom.

Today and every day, Massey Services proudly honors and thanks the men and women who serve our Country.  Closer to home, we are thankful for the opportunity to be a contributing part of our community and to our customers for their continued confidence in the services we provide.

Every Fourth of July, we select a patriotic dessert to share with our Team Members and Customers and this year, we’ve chosen the American Flag Cookie Tart.  Enjoy!
