Loving Grandmother of Tyke, Jim and his wife Shelly, Ed and his wife Shirley, Alex Patriquin, Mary Austin and her husband Matt and Ed Casabian III.

Dearest Faith & Eddie,
I am so so sorry I was unable to come to Mary's service. Mary Cass taught me to be the very best florist ever. I know she has gone to flower heaven with all the flower angels. I will never forget her.
Love,

As a young girl growing up in Watertown I had come to know Mr. & Mrs Cassabian during my visits with my mom and dad. When my dad would stop by to purchase flowers for my mother, he would always come home with some extra flowers for me given to him by Mary, who would tell him to "be sure to give them to your little girl"!

As an adult many years later when I worked for Osco Drug, it was from Cass Flowers that we set up an account to send flowers to our employees!

I'll never forget you Mary!

Faith and Eddie,
I'm so sorry to hear that Mrs. Cass passed away. I will always cherish the memories of coming to work with my mother and Mrs. Cass doting on me. Later in her retirement years she would either stop by to visit my grandmother or call our shop just to say hi. She will always be remembered as a very special person in my life. God Bless her.

With heartfelt sympathy and love,

Jim Patriquin
