On Memorial Day, 2001, he read a Washington Post reprint of a letter a young American fighter pilot wrote to his wife during World War II after learning of the birth of their first child. At 35, moved by his sister’s struggles with mental illness, he wrote “Susie Came Home.” Not sure what to make of the result, he set it aside and didn’t attempt a second song until six years later. David Massey played guitar on and off for fifteen years before taking a stab at writing a song.
