Clayton Cassidy: Ken Cassidy

clayton cassidy: Firefighters from across B.C. and hundreds of others jammed Cache Creek Park arena to take part in the memorial service Saturday, according to Brandon Sun. There wasn't a dry eye in the house when his three sons rose to speak. Clayton Cassidy went missing on May 5 while checking the water levels of Cache Creek and after an exhaustive search, his body was found by Ashcroft fire officials three weeks later. Ken Cassidy said the loss of their father was unfair and sudden, and saying goodbye is impossible, while Kevin Cassidy said he wished there was a bigger word than thank you for the people who spent weeks looking for their father. His son Derek Cassidy said he hoped others, especially firefighters, learn from the tragedy, and take caution in risky situations. Clayton Cassidy's widow Rose was presented with his helmet and the family received a rolling salute from firefighters lining the streets as they left. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
