                Cassidy was born on a Thursday, March 4th in 1982.  Cassidy graduated from RIHS in 2001.  A creature of habit and a supporter of downtown Rock Island, she very much enjoyed her Thursdays and Fridays at District businesses, such as Theos Java Club, Steves Olde Time Tap, Spellbound, and the Blue Cat Brew Pub.  She faced many challenges but always came back even more full of piss, vinegar, and Mt. Dew.  She was a kind soul at heart who never knew a stranger and was accepting of everyone.  Cassidy will be forever remembered as a friend, sister, daughter, aunt, cousin and fearless warrior.

                Cassidy is survived by her mother, Martha (Dave Smith) Cleaveland; father, Michael (Norma) Hedeen; brother, Tyler (Stacy) Hedeen; and, sister, Monica Hedeen.
