Posted 01/25/2013 | We The People

by Michael Duncan –

What has happened to the truth? During what was meant to be a Senate interrogation concerning the security failure in Benghazi, Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton declares, \”What difference, at this point, does it make?\” as she references the attack that left four American men dead – killed at the hands of terrorists.

Once diagnosed with breast cancer over a decade ago, Catherine \”Cass\” Farley never gave up. 14 years, she never complained, maintaining a brave and cheerful outlook of an optimistic future. She grew up in Gloucester City as part of a large, extended family. Cass was a shy, sweet, artistic, and affectionate child who matured into a fabulous, beautiful and wise woman. To her numerous nieces and nephews, she was an adored playmate, matriarch, school project expert and co-conspirator. She took pride in all of their achievements and sincerely believed they were all destined for greatness. She gave them unconditional love and support. In turn, Cass was cherished by her entire family.

She was predeceased by her parents Bernard J. and Louise A. Farley. She is survived by her siblings Louise (Bill) Donley, Mary (Lloyd) Watkins, Margaret (George) Christman, Elizabeth (Tim) Jackson, Theresa (Robert) Force, Christina Harrity, Bernard (Darlene) Farley, Thomas (Susan) Farley, Walter (Donna) Farley and Joseph (Renata) Farley.
