Adrian "Buss" Massa was a resident of Southern Nevada for 26 years and a
member of the SNBA. He was a member of the ABC for over 35 years. "Buss"
passed away in 1974, but his contributions to the sport of bowling and
Southern Nevada are still with us today.

maintained by the Association. However, he served as its President from
1959 to 1964. He served the Nevada State Bowling Association as a Board
Member and was President from 1956-1957, and 1958-1960.
Buss contributed a large amount of his time to help the bowlers in Southern
Nevada and organized many AJBC programs to instruct and encourage the young
bowlers, many of whom are now top bowlers in Southern Nevada.
Buss was responsible for the organization of many leagues; held all league
offices at one time or another, and maintained an average in the middle
180's.
