Casey Leonard Obituary

May 6, 1965 - Feb 1, 2015 Casey was a much beloved pillar of the Mobile music community, hearty patron of the Arts as well as a well-seasoned merchant sea officer who loved the open-water. And like his namesake, was kind-hearted and loved the animals. All who knew him appreciated his intellect and razor wit. He will be greatly missed. He was preceded in death by his father, Joseph Gregory Leonard, Sr.; his mother, Peggy Leonard-Theiss; and brother, Joseph Gregory Leonard, Jr. He is survived by his brother, Andrew and daughter, Sophie, as well as many who called him Friend. Memorial Service to be held Friday, Feb 6 at 1pm CST at Little Flower Catholic Church, 2053 Government St. Mobile, AL 36606.

So sorry to lose you Casey, especially for Sophie. Your brother was a great father to me and you were a really funny Uncle. Remember that long car ride from Stevenson that we made fun of mom and Joey from the backseat!
Maybe because we are in the same generation, you got my silliness without judging me as younger, ha! You always brought a different perspective to the world and how people should see things. Thank you for always sending super sweet and loving messages to us, including Mike and Ashley in your sentiments, when I am always too busy and need a reeling back in to reality of family. I will always remember how you were there for Mom and I when Joey was dying and in the room right after he died. It is hard to remember that scene and think that was probably very like your room Sunday too. It makes your death more real. You are too young to be gone! See ya someday again, we can take comfort in knowing you are in heaven with our Father.
