I will never forget this wonderful friend! I'm so glad she is free of pain, but will miss her so. She has been a friend since junior high school and was so looking forward to attending our 50th class reunion back in September. Here's to the reunion you are now having with family, loved ones, and friends! Till we meet again, dear Cassy!

Cassie was one of the warmest and friendliest people I had the pleasure of working with. She was professional, loved by co-workers and patients and always welcomed my questions when I needed help. I spend many nights second and third shift and valued my time with her. This is a heart breaking loss for everyone Cassie you will be missed.
