Today would be Cassandra's 26th birthday. It's so sad to not be able to celebrate it with her.
When I was at UIC, Cassandra was definetly one of my dearest friends and I miss her terribly. I'm so sorry that we've all lost someone who was so special.
Happy Birthday Cassandra!

I offer my deepest simpathies to your family. I was a contemporary of Cassandra's. I met her my freshman year when she was still at Merrilac but would attend music class at Loyola. I will never forget her smile and her positivity.

My deepest sympathy to the family of Cassandra. The few times I had the pleasure of being in her company with mutual friends will always be remembered in my heart. She was such an intelligent and upbeat woman.

Though I only knew Cassandra briefly, her charm and beauty have long lingered in my thoughts (her face could’ve launched ten-thousand ships). The world is far less perfect without her graceful presence.

My condolences to Cassandra's family and friends. I met her acquaintance in HS and struck up a friendship but had lost touch after graduation. I have never forgotten about her. She is a hard one to forget. She was the sweetest person in the world, surely touched so many ppl's lives. I know she did mine. It's a sad and difficult loss. She will be missed deeply.

It is with shock, disbelief and profound sorrow that I try to comprehend Cassandra's passing. I am so very sorry for the pain you have experienced and for the pain that you will always feel due to her absence on earth. I had the pleasure of working with Cassandra at Cite back in 1999 - 2000 and she made my days brighter with her laughter, silliness and her sincerity. She always made me feel that I was special - and it was SHE who was special! She was a hard worker and a kind, gentle soul. I am so very sorry. I wish I could take away the pain. Irene, Brendan, Angie (Monroe), Isos, Evangeline and Mama Mary. I pray that God will be ever present to help to ease your pain. I wish I would have known earlier, for I would have come in person to pay my respects. She is loved, as is your entire family. God be with you.

Cassandra was one of my close friends at Loyola Academy and it’s hard knowing that she is gone. She was truly an angel and I have faith in that she is in a better place. My thoughts are with her family in this time of sorrow. She will be missed.

Dear Family,
I did not know your daughter, but
I understand your grief. My son was
also 24 years old when he died in a
sky diving accident. I find comfort
in the fact that he did indeed live
life to the fullest. Blessings on
you in this time and always. Your
dear girl is in the arms of love.
As I know, it will never get better,
it just gets different. Peace to you

I can say I enjoyed the time I got to know Cassandra back in high school. I met her through a mutual friend the summer of my senior year at Loyola. This really comes as a shock to me.

I didn't know Cassandra , but I would like to express my deepest sympathy to her family & friends. I actually met her probably 8 or 10 years ago when she came to eat with her aunt Evangeline, her mother & siblings to our restaurant. I thought she was beautiful & had to laugh when she told her aunt she wanted her to teach her all about fashion. I have a 19 year old son & can't even imagine experiencing this kind of tragedy. There is one thing I'm sure of... She's an angel watching over all her loved ones.

I met Cassandra our freshman year at Marillac. We remained friends all throughout high school and unfortuantely lost touch after. I will always remember spending time with her on the weekends, talking during band practice when we weren't supposed to and having her ask out boys for me because I was too shy. Cassandra was never shy. I've never met anyone with as much confidence as her. She had a beautiful smile, a contagious laugh and the ability to find the good in everyone. She always made me feel special and happy when I was with her. She truly was a unique and wonderful person. She was one of my closest friends in high school. I wish that we had spent more time together after we graduated and continued the wonderful friendship we had. She has now taught me to cherish the friends I have in my life and reconnect with the ones I've lost touch with. I loved her like a sister and miss her very, very much. Irene, Brendan, Kevin and Alexander, you will all be in my thoughts and prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Although I had only first met Cassandra this past summer, she quickly became one of my closest friends. She was nothing short of magnetic with her uncontainable laughter and passion for life. She was always able to find the best in people and had the unwavering ability to forgive. She had so much to teach us all. People are truly better for having known her.

It is with numbing sorrow and great disbelief that we reflect on the life of our beautiful Cassandra. A true friend for many years, it was my great privilege and honor to have her in my life. Her ability to forgive and her passion for the world are what separated her from everyone else I know. We mourn the loss of one of the finest young women most of us will ever meet, but celebrate in her spirit and love she brought to those who knew her best.

Dear Irene and Sons:
I want to extend my sincere sympathy on the loss of your beautiful daughter and sister. She was an extraordinary individual, full of life and laughter, and touched my heart deeply from the day I met her. I was so pleased that my daughter Barbara had met such a nice young lady and had become so very close. May she rest in peace, and she will be remembered by many many people, for the person she was.
Sincerely,

I can't begin to express how deeply sorry I am about the loss of Cassandra. I had the pleasure of meeting Cassandra when I started with American Invsco in 1998. I thought that she was a very beautiful and lovely young lady. She had accomplished so much in such a short period of time. She will be missed.
