Cass Honored In Stirring Memorial
Service For CU's Longtime PA Announcer Held Saturday
As the memorial service for C.F. "Alan" Cass came to a close Saturday afternoon, a bagpiper played "Amazing Grace" followed by "Going Home." Positioned just outside the club level on the east side of Folsom Field, he played in the direction of Macky Auditorium, with the University Memorial Center among the rooftops to the left and the Coors Events Center visible in the other direction.
Those four iconic buildings on the University of Colorado's Boulder campus are where Cass spent the better part of his life from 1959 until his death, April 18, at the age of 77.
