Cassidy Japaltjarri
Born c. 1923, passed away 25th February 2006
Born at Napperby around 1923. Cassidy sadly passed away suddenly on 25th February 2006.
I have removed the normal bigraphical notes and will replace them with a fitting tribute
to a wonderful man. Cassidy was an ambassador for his people and was full of warmth
and always willing to talk to strangers.
I will remember him as a wonderful man, a man that made me laugh, a man that taught me so
much about Aboriginal ways, Aboriginal legend and Aborginal art. He shared many of his
dreamings with me and I was fortunate to visit many sacred and secret sites that were
very special to him. I have, and will always have,
wonderful memories of a wondeful man.
Most of all, however, I will miss my good mate Cassidy
