Hobert Lewis Cassity, 78, of Dogwood Lane, Zilpo, passed away Sunday, November 11, 2007, at ARH in West Liberty succumbing to an extended illness that he fought to the very end. He was born April 29, 1929, in Yale, Kentucky, to the late Joseph Sr. and Flora Alley Cassity. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by one brother, Joe Jr. Cassity. Survivors include one brother, Carl Alley Cassity and wife Joan of Zilpo, Kentucky, and five beloved nieces: Carolyn Cassity Sanders (Darrell), Lynn Cassity, Carmen Cassity, Kari Cassity, and Connie Cassity; one great nephew, Myke Sanders; one great niece, Crystal Sanders. After growing up and working on the family farm, Hobert received his primary education from Salt Lick and continued on to the Cleveland Institute of Electronics where he earned an advanced communications engineering diploma. Hobert served his country in the United States Army and Air Force, where he was granted a -Sustained Superior Performance Award.- He continued his service at the Bluegrass Army Depot where he retired. After his service in the Armed Forces, he returned home to Cave Run Lake where he operated his own C.B. & Ham Radio Business and proudly wore the C.B. handle of -Snake on the Lake.- More importantly his return home brought him the overwhelming joy of caring for his mother until her death at age 105. When his mother would let him, Hobert would spend every spare minute doing what he loved most - golfing at Carrington Greens (in fact she threatened to sue the course if he continued playing as much as he did)! Hobert also enjoyed riding his motorcycles, hiking, and just being on the lake. He loved spending time with his family and spoiling his nieces. Hobert was a member of Farmers Christian Church where he served as a board member and deacon. Uncle will be sadly missed by all that had the privilege to know him.
