From Uncle Dave
When I think about Cassie only good things come to my mind. I think about the beautiful and happy-go-lucky kid who grew up with my daughter Claire, all the CYC soccer games, the birthday parties and holiday celebrations, picnics and all the fun we had as a family. Mary Beth’s passing brought everyone close together.
Cassie was always there for Claire and I, always ready with a smile and always putting others needs in front of her own. What separates Cassie from almost anyone I know is that every time I meet her she always asks about me first, always does so with a smile and, more importantly, does so in such a caring and genuine way you know she really cares.
Cassie has a “gift” and that gift is being the genuine caring young woman she is and sharing that warmth and spirit with others. The world would be a much better place if there were more “Cassie’s” out there. Sadly, there are few, but I’m fortunate enough to know one. My life would be less rich without her.
The lives Cassie will undoubtedly touch in the future have no idea how lucky they are.
