It is with heavy heart that we share the passing of dear friend and Emeritus REALTOR, Cassie Kauerz. She gave laughter, professionalism, class, and much wisdom to our association. If I ever need a better way to say something, I called Cassie. She had a way with words like no one I've ever met. She was kind and giving and a great supporter of our community projects. She sought out ways to give back.

Cassie battled Parkinson's disease in recent years, but Friday, Dec 17 was a good day and she spoke at length with Cathy Feltenstein, congratulating her on receiving the Tony L Winstead Lifetime Achievement Award. She passed peacefully in her sleep Friday night.

Below is Cassie's video when she received the Tony L Winstead Lifetime Achievement Award in 2014.

Please remember her daughter, Molly who was caring for her, and son Christopher during this season of loss.

Further information for memorials will be sent in the next week.
