Casey McNamee

Casey, you are not forgotten!! I am so grateful our carpooling at St. P's brought us together. And then my grief over the deaths of my parents brought us even closer. You were always the best listener! One story: I was debating whether or not to get rid of a poster of Marie Cassatt's that depicted two small girls on a beach. I loved it, but thought maybe it wasn't right for me, the mother of two sons, to display a painting of two girls!! Casey didn't laugh at me, she just gently said that...

It’s been four years now since Casey left us. I so wish she was here to help us navigate this pandemic and to welcome in a kinder leadership. There have been so many “what would Casey do” moments since she passed and, while I often know what she would do, I often lack her confidence, motivation and know-how to do it. Still, I’m guided by her example and by her amazing attitude and spirit right to the end of this life. Just a couple of weeks before Casey passed in January 2017, she came to...

I was a new nurse working with Casey, and she took me under her wing to teach me the harder skills, drawing blood and staring Ivs. She was an inspiration to me and l have never forgotten her. I am not surprised to know that so many people loved her.
She was an impressive nurse and an inspiring, valuable and beautiful person!

Casey and I were classmates in high school. Casey's positive energy and go-go attitude was what I remember most about her. Great athlete, too -- could run like the wind. Sorry for your loss.

Casey only came into my life a year ago when she volunteered for the Oakland Museum Women's Board White Elephant Sale. We were both in the Bric A Brac department and for the short time I knew her it was evident that I'd encountered an amazing woman. My tragedy is that I never got to know her. This makes my sadness for so many that did all the more palatable.
Thank you Casey for coming into my life if even for a few months.
My thoughts are with your husband, children and friends....

Condolences for the loss of your loved one.May the God of all comfort,comfort you at this most difficult time.

Casey and I met in 1992-two moms with big suburbans carpooling our kids to St. Perpetua School. She became a close friend over the years, and I witnessed her stand her ground against the big C. She always knew who she was, and I so admired that in her. She never wore her heart on her sleeve, but she had a huge heart. She loved to laugh, and her giggle remains with me.
My heart goes out to all who loved this incredible woman, especially her amazing husband, David,or "Lennon," as she fondly...
