Shirley Cassidy

I extend my deep sympathy to you on the passing of Mrs. Cassidy. She was one of my instructors at Worcester City, and someone that even now I've still looked up to. She was the embodiment of "the art and science" of nursing and probably taught so much more by who she was - with us, as students, and with our patients - than any lesson plans could convey. It was a privilege to learn from her. She was wise, motherly, and kind, and she deeply influenced my own practice of nursing. May she rest...

I had the privilege of having Mrs. Cassidy as my Freshman nursing instructor at WCH. She was kind and patient- just what we needed as we transitioned from high school seniors to responsible caregivers. May she rest in peace

To the Cassidy family: I had the privilege of knowing your mother at City Hospital. She always had a warming smile and was always willing to share her knowledge and care for patients. May she rest in peace. Kathy, WCH nurse

My Deepest Sympathy to all.

Our thoughts are with you. Shirley was a wonderful friend to my mother and our whole family and it was wonderful to see her again in January.

Shirley was one of my instructors at WCHSN. She was a wonderful woman and mentor. She and other instructors stood up for me at a difficult time and I am eternally grateful.

An extraordinary lady

I am so sorry for the loss of such a wonderful woman. She was one of my "favorite" instructors at City Hospital. A great role model and a lady who imparted knowledge, a love of nursing and respect for all. Thank you Mrs. Cassidy.
