Memories and Condolences
for Thomas Casey

Not sure what to say?





Tom was a kind man who taught me so much as I started my career just after finishing college. He always took the time to make sure I understood what he was explaining and made sure I could explain it back to him. I still remember not to ever plant flowers before Mothers day to always double-check measurements before reporting a discrepancy. I miss him and am so happy to have known him.
