Don was preceded in death by his parents, his wife, Joye Joseph Cassidy, brothers, Eugene Cassidy, and William Cassidy, sisters, Ruby Cassidy McClurg, and June Cassidy Argo, and his son, Daniel Cassidy.
He is survived by a grandson Joshua Cassidy, a daughter-in-law, Ashley Cassidy and many nieces and nephews.

My wife graduated from Campbellsville U. in 71 and I did in 72. Don was older than us but I remember him. We live in Frankfort, but I am disabled and unable to visit. Don was a good man.
