Harriett Jean Zuefle Cassity, 95, of McDermott, went to be with her loving Heavenly Father on Wednesday, December 9, 2021. She was born January 21, 1926 in New Boston, OH.
Harriett was the daughter of the late Lawrence L. and Harriett A. Zuefle. She was preceded in death by her husband of 66 years, Robert C. Cassity. She was also preceded in death by a brother, William Zuefle.
Harriett is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Candace and Daniel Chatfield who reside in Orient, OH; and by her son and daughter-in-law, Timothy and Kathi Cassity, who reside in South Shore, KY.

Until she was not able to attend anymore, Harriett was an active member of McDermott Methodist Church. She also attended Porter Free Will Baptist Church in her later years when she was able.
Harriett worked for several years at McDermott Elementary School as an aide; however, her true occupation was a loving wife and mother. She managed her household well.
