A UTC student apparently died accidentally of carbon monoxide poisoning while talking on a cell phone while her car was running in her garage.
Cassie Amanda Clements, 21, was found dead early Monday morning.
She shared the house in Red Bank with a sorority sister, officials said.
She had returned about 2 a.m. and shut the garage door after pulling into the basement.
A graduate of Soddy-Daisy High School, she was pursuing both majors in education and the nursing program. She was a member of Chi Omega sorority and a longtime employee of Chuck E. Cheese in Hixson.
She was active at Middle Valley Church of Christ, where she worked in VBS and helping with Bible classes. She also was involved in the Inner-City Ministries.
Survivors include her parents, Charlie and Cindy Clements; two sisters, Chelsea Clements and Christy Beach, along with her husband, Matt; two brothers, Chas and Cody Clements; grandparents, Barbara Fugate and Kit C.
