Remembrance for Cassie

In the beginning of January residents had a small gathering of thanks to celebrate Cassie the dogs life and all that she gave to the residents here at White Rose Lodge and other homes locally. The gathering consisted of hymns including ‘all things bright and beautiful’ alongside ‘morning has broken’.
