It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Cassandra Marie (Tufano) Baker, 31, on June 4th, 2024. She was a beloved daughter, sister and friend who will be deeply missed.

Cassandra was born on November 4, 1992, in New Haven, CT. She grew up in East Haven, CT and spent time living in Bradenton, FL, Springfield, MO and Orlando, FL. Cassandra contributed her time helping others that struggled with mental illness, most recently at Burrell Behavior Health in Springfield, MO. She also spent her time working in sales at CarMax in East Haven, and Security and Patrol in Bradenton, FL.

Cassandra was outgoing, full of life and cared deeply about her friends, family and animals. The only thing she loved more than music, make-up and shoes were her three dogs.

Cassandra is survived by her mother, Sharon Talbot, her father, Michael A. Tufano, her brother, Michael (Megan) Tufano, and her three dogs, Trixie, BB, and Bandit.

Cassandra will be deeply missed, but her memory will live on through family, friends and all those that knew her.
