Open letter of thanks to CCU community

Dear Coastal Carolina University Family:

Garry and I became incredibly blessed when we chose Coastal Carolina University to be our work home. You are not just colleagues, but you really are extended family. Thank you so much for all of the kindness, generosity, and support you have shown to us during Garry's passing. While this is a very difficult time for me and our kids, I know we will be okay with such incredible people around us.

Thank you so much!

Jennie, Bryen, Noel, and Brittney Cassidy
