Cassie, my good friend of 34 years, I will miss our conversations, tears and laughter. But most of all I'll miss your smiling face. See you on the other side. Your friend always, Love Marge.

Aunt Cassie was an extremely generous, caring person to all who ever had the opportunity of crossing paths with her, whether it be a family member, friend, neighbor or stranger on the street. She was always more concerned with everyone else's well being before her own and at the drop of a hat would be there if you needed her. She will be sadly missed by all of these people, even more by those in her family, and what a strong family this is. We all know she is in a better place looking down on us all along with those who have already passed on, she will be tremendously missed at our wedding but know she will be watching down from heaven having her own good old irish party, we love and miss you Aunt Cassie, rest in peace. Billy, we are here for you at any moment of the night or day when you need someone to talk to, please don't hesitate to call.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Cassie's family. She was a great caretaker, and a very funny woman. Cassie took good care of my Mother, Mary Fischer. The two of them together was like watching little girls. When we took my mom to see Cassie at the hospital, they both lit up. They missed each other very much. Our family, and especially my mom, we'll miss her very much. And we will pray for her soul, and her loved ones.

I know that none of you know me; but I did get to know Cassie, and she was one very precious and very beautiful woman. May God hold her in the palm of His hands, and may He console you at this time.

Aunt Cassie, I don't know what we are going to do without you. I have so many wonderful memories of you. I am going to miss your smile & your laugh. And the little bun on top of you head. God I need to smile. It was so hard to watch you suffer but yet even harder to let you go. Your last words spoken were to my mom to tell me to take care of the babies (Richie & Marco) and I promise you I always will. I know you are with the rest of our very special family and I know you will all take care of each other. We miss you all and please look down on us every once in a while and let us know you are all still here with us. Miss you and Love you forever & ever!!!!
