Condolences
Emily and I wanted to let you know how much we love Holly and how much she meant to us. We were best friends and I can’t even begin to understand why she was taken away from us so soon. We understand that the funeral will be private but know that we considered Holly a definite part of our family and Alexis will always be welcomed by us. We want her to know what a wonderful person and friend she was as she gets older, though I know you will do that better than anyone. If you ever need anything, anything at all, you can call either one of us.

For the family of Holly Cassano
I cannot express the sorrow I feel for my own loss of Holly and I can’t even imagine what you are going through. As difficult as it is to get past the manner in which Holly left us, just remembering her smile and shouts across Meijer’s when she saw me, accompanied by a big “Holly” hug, helps me get though these troublesome days. I will miss her visits to the school and her updates about her daughter and her life. I will miss her deeply.
My thoughts and prayers are will you and your family. No words can help heal the wounds left by this tragedy but know many people are here to help you all get through these difficult times.
Janet Largent, Teacher
Mahomet-Seymour High School
