Al Casey

A good friend and an inspiring teacher. Rest easy, my friend.

It has been along time since I have seen you and heard you play. It must have been in the mid 70's at Grandpa Casey's house in Cathedral City. But I have always listened to your records you gave me. I listen to you on cd these days. You inspired me then as you do now, and I will miss you Uncle Al. See ya down the road.

See ya old pal,You were one ofmy most trusted friends forever it seemed.you took me in after Donnie Owens died and it just got nicer and nicer everytime we were together, I will miss your friendship and your jokes my friend, Love ya Steve

See ya later, Al.

Adios My Friend. Al I was always a fan and spent many an hour at Ramsey's Records on 7th street back In the 50.s. I was happy that I got to meet you and listen to you play at your CD party at the Rhythm a few years back. You are loved and will be missed by us all.

Your wonderful personality will always be with me, and I will always treasure the guitar knowledge you so humbly taught me.
Play on man!
