Roy was very committed to the success of St. Brigid School. As an education committee member, he was always anxious to see that the best practices were in place for the good of the students. He and his wife Carol were wonderful supporters. He will be missed. So sorry that I could not be there for his funeral, but I had another commitment. He and Carol are in my prayers.

Such an amazing life of service.. I'm so very sorry Carol. I know its hard to imagine now, but the day will come when you can think of him and tears are replaced by smiles and favorite stories. Be kind to yourself as he would want. Much love, Denise & Griffin

He was my favorite teacher, not only at Driscoll, but throughout all my school years. He was very patient, kind, caring , and you could tell he truly loved what he did. I'm sorry for your loss and I hope all your wonderful memories of him carry you through and know how much he was loved by so many.

Roy Cassidy was one of the finest human beings I have ever met. He was an inspirational teacher to our children and went the extra mile for us with our oldest son. He was my life saver during a very difficult time. He will be missed by so many. May his wife and family find comfort in knowing Roy was loved and we will mourn with them. Goodbye to UD STATS. You will always be remembered.

I am truly saddened to learn of the passing of one of my Xenia High School 1965 'hang out in the hall buddies" . Roy was smart and personable. I considered him a true friend. I saw him last-- the summer of 2017 at the horse races @ the Greene Co.Fair. Roy was a winner and was always upbeat & pleasant. Gonna miss ya pal. I will see you soon back home with the Father. Farewell for now. R.I.P.

Roy was one of the most loyal friends anyone could have...and he cared about everyone.
The UD stats crew will especially miss his attempts to tell jokes that were lousier than Jeff's. We're all glad that was one thing he couldn't do!
God bless and comfort Carol, Katie and family.
