I remember Maureen’s beautiful smile and laugh. She was a great athlete and played basketball in grade school.  She was always a good, kind, fun friend.  I would see her on grandparents  day attending her son’s school, Chief Joseph. What can I say, she was a beautiful person and is greatly missed by all.

I think about you every day, Mo! Your warmth, your infectious smile, your deep caring, and, especially, your crazy sense of humor!😇🤭
I miss you, my friend, but am a better person to have known and loved you.💕

A whole year has passed without the laugh, the smirks, the guidance, the love , what a hole we are left with. We are celebrating you everyday and I see you in so many things, thank you for watching over us …..still. I love you Maureenie.

Maureen was a bright and shining star in my life! She had such an infectious positive attitude and was so compassionate and caring. She will be greatly missed. Sending Mo's family lots of love. 

Maureen was a very special person whose smile lit up a room.   She had that special Cassidy humor.  She always treated me like family which I am forever thankful.   My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Cassidy family during this time of sorrow.

Cassidy Family and Gary,

The Picou / Whitten family in Alaska is deeply saddened by Maureen’s passing.  We all loved her very much. What a blessing she was to be in our lives. Peace, love, and prayers. 


Boring, OR         2016
Even Lloyd the goat was excited to see Maureen when she would come out to the farm!

Maureen was a great big sister!!!  Always a smile on her face, love in her heart, toughness in what life dealt her and maybe a few snide comments along the way.  She was my inspiration.  Love you Maureen!!!

I’m so sorry to hear of Maureen’s passing.  I was her wound care nurse for a long time and I loved our time together.  She was always so positive and cheerful despite the tough situation she was in.  She became a dear friend to me, and we talked for hours during my visits.  She met both of my children and they also loved her.  I met a few of her family members and you were also great.  I wish I could have seen her one last time.  I left my position in May due to our own family tragedy.  I really wish i had connected with her again so she knew i didn’t just leave.  She will be someone I always remember.  Im so sorry for your families loss.  Maureen was an amazing bright light.  

What a privilege to have worked with and got to know such a wonderful person as Maureen! If I was having a bad day, all I needed to do was spend a few moments with her infectious positive attitude, and the day was much better. 
  She was always willing to listen to concerns and offer prayers as well. She will live on in my heart forever. 


Mo was always so funny. I think in this photo, she had accidentally cut herself. 

Mo had asked me to take a work photo for her. This is what she came up with. 

I sat in the cube next to Mo in our office at Providence. She would always have issues with her computer and I was happy to help out. We joked around all the time and talked extensively about our lives. She was such a bright person. Always having fun and joking around despite everything she was dealing with. We'll miss you, Mo. ❤️ 

One time we went on a drive to take pictures of the fall leaves.. she wore the perfect outfit to fit in to the mix. Maureen always looked so nice and we shared our love of clothes and scarves. A sweet sweet friend, I shall miss. Miss you long time my delicate friend , Maureenis. 

Oh the DAFFODIL EVENT.. that was a huge bust.."Let's go to the Daffodil festival!" "ok , we all said happily!".. We drove and drove and we were in a small town, Amity , I think.. no fields, no flowers, just a bunker in the middle of this tiny town.! It was an event all right.. just a bunker and some daffodils that were on display for judging.. you could buy a few, but ONLY a few.. What a riot. 
Maureen was always up for things to do, go on drives, have dinners, drink, drink drink.. lol, Gearhart, Rockaway, Mt . Angel. She was up for adventures and always a friend to me. Often we would send texts about the beautiful sunrise and the colors and  did we see it? We sent lists of movies to watch and books to read . She was a friend and a sister and a confident and a bright light in my life. 

To my big sister, 
You have always been and will remain the wind beneath my wings.
Thank you for an amazing journey
Monica

Thru all our years at Providence together, Mo has been a rock to so many, including myself. Her comfort in dark times, her infectious laughter and humor, and her love and compassion meant so much to so many. I have had the privilege to call her my friend and will miss her. Be at Peace, Mo. Love you always!❤ Mary Mc

I was one of Maureen’s many cousins.  Although I cannot attend her service, my thoughts and prayers are with Uncle Bob, Paul, Matt, Sheila and Monica.  As she was the oldest cousin of the Cassidy clan, I always looked up to Maureen as she had the brightest smile, contagious laugh and bold Christian faith. She will be missed dearly.

Words cannot convey the love I feel for this woman. If anyone ever needed proof that angels walked among us, they would only need to look at this mug and just know that she was the real deal. In my mind she is still with me, with her coiffed hair, mirror in one hand and lipstick in the other. To the Cassidy family, thank you for sharing your mother/sister with me for the last 20 years. I have been truly blessed to have her in my life. ♥️

My condolences to Maureen’s children Mary and Pat Benton, her father and siblings, and to dear Gary Williams (AKA GAREBEAR). 
Maureen was such a special friend.  No matter how much discomfort or pain she was in you’d rarely know it, as she always had a joke to tell or laughing about something.  
We’d known each other since childhood at Madeleine Grade School, and then worked together for her 20 years of service at Providence.  
Maureen enjoyed going for tea several places around Portland, our last place was in Battleground for her birthday in 2022.  
Maureen is an angel and will always be in my heart ❤️.  I don’t have many friends from my childhood that I’m close to but she was such a dear and I don’t think I ever heard a harsh word from her about anything or anyone.
I miss you so much my girl.  
Until we meet again.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️XOXO

Maureen was always such a dear friend. She was always bubbly and cheerful.  We’d known each other since grade school at Madeleine and then worked together at Providence for 20 years. She loved to go for tea, at different places around Portland. I’ll always think of her when I have a cup.  No matter how hard life was for Maureen she always had a great attitude or joke or story to tell.  
My condolences to all the Cassidy’s, Pat and Mary Benton,Gary Williams her (Garebear).
It is certainly a blessing to have known Maureen.  
I love you very much my dear special friend.  
I’m  so very glad you aren’t in any pain anymore.  
You are an angel and I’ll never forget you.  
Plan on having a tea party for her birthday in April. 
Until we meet again.  

I was so very sorry to hear of Maureen's passing. While I worked at Providence she was my best friend and helped me get thru some hard times in my life. I loved her dearly. Loved her wonderful family too. She will be missed by so many.

I am so sorry to hear about Maureen!  Thinking of The Cassidy family and friends during this sad times. 

 She was a great classmate and athlete. Her mom was one of the coaches with Mrs. Ferguson and the Zeners. We played volleyball, basketball and softball during our grade school years at Madeleine.  I remember her great laugh and smile! A fun, positive beautiful person! She will be greatly missed!

Heaven has gained another angel and she and Patty are up there watching over us and having a party right now.

I’m so sorry Cassidy family. She was a sweet person who always made me feel welcome at family functions. May she Rest In Peace❤️🙏

I worked with Maureen at Providence. She was the nicest person.  Beautiful inside and out.  Always very compassionate and thoughtful.  So sad to hear of her passing.

I am sorry to hear of Maureen's passing. I always loved our chats. She was such a wonderful person.

Maureen was one of the toughest persons that I ever met and as resilient as they came. I am not sure anyone really knows how much she endured in her too short of a lifetime. She was down to earth and tremendously spiritual. She introduced me to Taize (a form of chanting) and the Benedictine monks out in Yamhill country...I would drive her out thre often...on the other hand, she had a wicked sense of humor and was a bright light in an all too serious world. I miss her greatly already. I'm really glad she shone in my orbit for a while.  Blessings to Mary, Pat and all the Cassidy clan.

Dear Mary and Pat,

Although I no longer live in Portland, word of your mother's death came to me in Omaha, Nebraska.
As you know your mother was a very positive and out going and up-lifting person.  Although I first met her about 36 years ago, the connection remained and a bond of friendship developed,  which I cherish .  I am saddened by her death.  The world was a better place because of her.

May you find peace in knowing that she is being held by a loving God.
May you find comfort in Jesus' promise of eternal life.
In sympathy and prayer,
Ssr. Sarah Deeby, OSM
  

Maureen was a true light in this world! She always carried a positive attitude and had such a wonderful sense of humor. She was an inspiring human being and will be sorely missed.

Maureen was one of those rare people who truly do light up a room every time they enter.  I will miss her radiant kindness.
