Robert J. "Jim" Cassidy

Robert J. “Jim” Cassidy, age 84, of Hanover Township, Clinton, PA, passed away at his residence on Sunday, July 7, 2024.  Jim was born in Pittsburgh, PA, on May 1, 1940, son to the late James E. and Anna R.

Jim worked as a millwright, steelworker, and rigger during his career at J&L/LTV Steel.  He was an avid hunter and fisherman and a lifelong member of the Goodwill Hill Hunting and Fishing Club.  Jim was also a handyman par excellence, a master of silly jokes, and had a soft spot for children and animals.  Family meant everything to Jim, and he was most proud of raising six loving children.  His life’s greatest success was being a loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather.  Rest in peace, Jim.
