Dear Cassell Family, I am truely sorry for your loss, I was deeply saddened to hear of Sandy’s passing, I share in your pain .Where you lost your sister, I lost my best frlend. While she was a very private person with most people, I was fortunate enough to be one of the few people that she trusted enough to be her friend. Sandy was one of the few people in my life whom I could count on to be completely honest with me whether I liked it or not, something that I will surely miss. I will also miss her beautiful smile and loud jovial laugh,While we are left behind to mourn her passing, I know that as her time was running short she made peace with the lord and accepted her fate,and is now in Heaven resting at the feet of God surrounded by all of her loved ones that went before her. May God grant you peace and serenity at this difficult time,and may you all find comfort in the good memories you share of your sister Sincerely, Greg.

May the memories of Sandy’s laughter and friendship comfort you all in this time of grief. While not being close to Sandy I could always count on her big personality in the warehouse to make me laugh! She has been missed.
