Anthony Cassell didn’t single out any of the countless fond memories he has of his nephew, Sydney Cassell. To him, each one was remarkable.
“Any contact with Sydney was a memory because he was the life of the party,” Anthony Cassell told the Chicago Sun-Times.Sydney Cassell, 29, had just gotten off shift at the Kids Foot Locker at 8658 S. Cottage Grove Ave., where he worked as a security guard. He was getting into his car about 7:20 p.m. when someone in a blue sedan drove up and fired shots, Chicago police said.
“The Bible talks about: ‘It’s better to forgive,” Otey, 28, told the Sun-Times. “We’ll never forget what happened to him or what they did to him but we always can forgive them.” Sydney enjoyed dancing and listening to hip-hop and R&B and also spending time making music with his brothers. He also had a deep passion for cars.
