to Cassandra's family and close friends. I am so sorry for your loss. I wasn't close with Cassandra in High School but got to know her a little bit while planning for our latest reunion. She was such a dynamic person and will be missed by many. My prayers for peace at this very difficult time to you all. RIP Cassandra.
