To the Donovan Family,

I was so saddened to hear about Cassie, I only met her a couple of times when she was at my neice Caitlin's house. She seemed like such a sweet and genuine person. I know Caitlin loved her and spoke so highly of her. There are no words to truly comfort you during a time like this but hopefully knowing how much Cassie impacted those that met her and those that had the pleasure of knowing her will help and give tribute to the person she was. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

To Cassie and Her Family,

I do not know you, but I feel for your loss. No parent should have to deal with losing a child. God Bless and be strong for each other.

I saw this poem and thought of you.

Little girl, little girl where have you gone? Your going has darkened the brightest dawn.

Why did you leave us, so soon, so soon? Where can we look for you? Over the moon? On butterflies wings? In the heart of a rose?

Who knows, who knows where a little girl goes?

Where I have gone, I am not small.

My soul is as wide as the world is tall. I have gone to answer the call, the call of the one who takes care of us all.

Wherever you look, you will find me there. In the heart of rose, in the heart of a prayer. On butterflies wings, on wings of my own. To you, I'm gone, but I'm never alone. I'm over the moon, I am home.

I hope you find comfort in time.

To the family and friends of Cassie Donovan,

I am so sorry for your loss. I have known Cassie since sixth grade and she was a wonderful person. I had never seen her be unkind to anybody. Be comforted by the fact that Cassie's memory will be carried on by all those that will miss her, and trust me, there are many people who will miss her. She's in a better place, and we all benefit with a beautiful angel by our sides.

Jim & Pat,

We are truly sorry for Cassie's loss, and still shocked. We had a nice conversation with her at Barbara and Leo's just before Christmas and were struck as to what a lovely young lady she had become.

Our prayers are with you...you have a beautiful angel watching over you.

Love, John and Joan

To the Family of Cassie Donovan:

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved daughter. I did not know Cassie personally rather I know of her as she was the close friend of Caitlin Coppenrath( I am a friend of her mom's). I was devastated to hear of her passing from a local story on Boston .com but it took on a whole new meaning when I learned she was Caitlin's close friend. From what I had always heard , Cassie was a great person and a wonderful friend full of hopes and dreams. My wish for you all is that you will find solace in that in the coming days. I will be thinking of Cassie over the next few days.

I love you all and am so sorry for this loss.
