I went to middle school with Chassidy. I didn't get to know her much more since then, but I made this page for her family and other friends to remember her. A short memorial was for her included on her fiance's memorial handout, since her service was private. It reads as follows:
Chassidy Lynn Bamsey was born on Wednesday, October 7, 1987 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. She was the daughter of Lila Joyce (Jonnes) and William Frazier Bamsey and step-mom Monica Foxhoven. Chassidy was independent, strong-headed, and very opinionated, but loved by many. She loved to be the center of attention, enjoyed writing poetry, learning about Native American culture, and had a soft heart for turtles, of which she had a collection of many. Chassidy was preceded in death by her fiance, Brian VanWagner, who passed away by her side, and whom she was to marry the following day.
I know that she and her fiance, Brian, were inseperable. In fact, they were married posthumously, and a portion of Chassidy's ashes were interred inside Brian's casket, complete with both wedding rings. They are indeed, together forever.
Missing You
So yesterday marked 2 years since you have been gone. I miss you so much. I sat her thinking of you all day. I cant believe that you were taken so soon. I know you are watching over us and everything but its not the same as if you were here. I miss calling and telling you about my day and you doing the same. I sometimes think I am lost without you. You were and always will be my best friend!! Love you and miss you dearly!!
Love,
Kandie
Justice was somewhat served today. I am happy that he will sit in prison for the rest of his life. That makes me feel a lot better. But that doesnt amount to the pian that we all have suffered for the loss of you Robert and Brian. You guys will be forever in our hearts. I honestly think he should have to die the way you guys had to but that wont happen I know. I just want him to feel the pain that you guys did. But at least he will have to suffer everyday knowing that he shot and killed 3 people. I love and miss you so much Chassy but I know I will see you again.
Love and miss you lots,
Kandie
I went to your grave site a couple of days ago and saw the headstone and it finally sank in that you were really gone. I hated that feeling. I do really miss you and Love you alot. I wish we could just have one more day to hang out and do our thing! We did everything together. I miss that. I talked to you brother the other day he misses you alot also. I feel really bad for him. I hope you are having the time of your life up there and I think about you all the time. Hope to see you soon. I love and miss you alot.

I miss you so much. I just want to pick up the phone and call you sometimes then I remember that you are watching over all of us. But I just miss you alot I wish I could just talk to you one more time but there is no way that I can. I've gone to your grave and just stared at the ground. I know that I will see you again later but it still hurts that I cant just call you when I am having a bad day. I wish I could just hear your voice one more time. Even if I colud hear it one more time for 5 minutes I would be happy with that. I just want to tell you that I love you very much and miss you dearly.
Love,
Kandie

sorry for your loss, its must be really hard as it seems that someone took her life from her, what gave them that right? no one. i pray that justice was done, that she now rests in peace.xx
I hope you were laughing.....
Hey Chassidy,
It had been a while since we saw each other last. I wish I'd known you better. What happened to you and Brian was terrible, but I know you guys are together in Heaven and happy. I think Kevyn, Nicole, Michelle and me were the four biggest crybabies there! Everyone else held it together. Kevyn says you were telling her not to cry. We all made it through by thinking about how you were probably laughing about the four of us getting so emotional. We were quite a sight, I know:) So I hope you and Brian were hysterically laughing...:)
