Cassidy was the head girls golf coach at Carroll High School and was active in the athletic community at St. Brigid School in Xenia as a basketball coach and scorekeeper.
Cassidy was retired from Centerville City Schools. He taught fourth grade for 35 years at Driscoll Elementary, according to his obituary.
He is survived by his wife Carol, daughter Katie Brown and son-in-law Bill Brown and two granddaughters. A visitation will be held from 5-8 p.m. Thursday at St. Brigid Church, and a funeral mass will be held at 11 a.m. Friday.
Our sympathies to Roy's family, & to all of us who knew him. That's a pretty long list, because Roy never met a stranger. #RIP https://t.co/alrbnQNn0W
