Cassandra, I remember we had some good times in second period and we always had a good time. I wish you were here with us and could have seen the movie you helped to make. I will never forget you and your spirit. Know that even if we didn't know a whole lot about each other, we still didn't care and became good friends. Live in peace, chica, and know you will be in our hearts.

Mark, Brenda and Heather,
I am deeply saddened to hear about the loss of your daughter and sister. I will always remember Cassandra as Heather's little sister who waited so patiently for her big sister to come out of my classroom. What a lovely face and beautiful smile. Please hold on tight to Heather and know that Cassandra is in God's arms now watching over you. You were wonderful and loving parents to her. We were all blessed to have her in our lives, even if just for a brief moment in time.
Sincerely,
Suzanne Spracher-Anderson

I was Cassandra's 8th grade Social Studies teacher. I was always so impressed with her smile and such positive attitude. Through the hundreds of students I have encountered, there have been a few who have left a lasting impression. Cassandra was definetly one of them! Please know that her parents were not the only people who were truly proud of her and influenced by her warm smile and sweet spirit.

Dear Mark, Brenda and Heather, My prayers goes out to you and to all who knew Cassandra. I think my fondest memory happened several years ago. When Rusty was trying so hard to fix up his house there you all were helping every day. Casssandra and Heather always anxious to see what he thought about the painting and cleaning they had done. She is now your angel just like she was to us then. God be with you in your sorrow and may he give you peace knowing how many lives she touched in so many special ways.

She was such an avid fan of the "big brown truck" and took the teasing from my brother and "Humpty" in stride. She will be missed by our whole family and now we all have a beautiful, smiling angel to watch over us all. Bless all of you, the Carr Family

Cassandra, I love you so much and I miss you! I just wish we could have kicked it together one last time. I still remember our last conversation as if it were yesterday..I could not believe how much you had changed! Despite the changes, I still love you the same. I am sorry you are gone and that we could not have more time together, and my heart goes out to you, Heather, and the rest of your family. I love you girl..
