My most heartfelt condolences and sympathies to all of the Cassidy family. It has been a wonderful experience to have met you all and to have been able to aid Jane in her failing years. God has decided, for his own reasons, to teach us all a lesson of compassion and patience. I know that Mrs. Cassidy is by his side now, looking upon us all just as I am sure she is as grateful for Mr. Cassidy's love and care for the last 65 years of marriage and will be waiting just as patiently for him in Heaven.
