It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bert Massey, a cherished member of the TLTA family whose contributions to our community and the title industry are immeasurable. Serving as TLTA President from 1981-82, Bert's leadership established the TLTAPAC, laying the foundation for the political advocacy that has protected and advanced our industry for decades. Bert continued his lifelong dedication to TLTA and our mission as Chair of the PAC Board for many decades, assuming the role of Chair Emeritus in 2023.
Bert was a past Title Person of the Year, an Honorary TLTA Member, and a recipient of the President’s Award—honors that reflect his legacy of leadership, generosity, and commitment to the industry. His influence and dedication will be remembered by TLTA and the title community for years to come.
We share our condolences with Bert’s family and friends during this time of loss.
