Welcome to the Cassie Bernall Web Site established by her family.

This site honors the memory of our daughter, Cassie Bernall, who was killed at Columbine High School on April 20, 1999, after professing her faith in God. She, along with eleven students and one teacher, perished in this tragedy.

A normal day and a beautiful girl
Peoples crazy ways and a messed up world
In the library she sat reading a book
Everyone ran with just one look
The guns in their hands put to many peoples head
In one split second many were dead
When they came to her she must have been scared
I can't comprehend the fear of being there
They asked her if she believed in God
She said "Yes" then she was gone
It's so heroic that she'd let go of her life
For the one who made the same sacrifice
No one will forget the lives of any
But Cassie Bernall changed the lives of many
