Thank you for choosing to join in this was that is killing generations. I have 34 days clean and I will remember your daughter's story.

Casey´s memory lives on in the people who got her organs and the people who caught to over come there addiction, prayers to her family and all who are dealing with the bad things of this world

I want to thank Casey's family for being kind enough and brave enough to share her story in hopes of sparing someone else this horrible experience. I was moved to tears.

Seven years and your memory still lives on! Your story resonates with addicts, with grieving parents, with brothers and sisters...anyone who's life has been impacted in any way by the disease of addiction. You are loved and missed Casey, and you are making a difference from the stars above. To anyone who is facing addiction and has come across this obituary, please know that there is hope! We can and do recover, one day at a time.

Thank you for sharing and thank you for helping other realize there is more to addicts than our addiction.

I'm looking forward to the end of this...

That is the most beautiful obituary I have ever read! I just lost my daughter to the same and was trying to figure out how to write hers. Thank you and I'm so sorry for the loss of your daughter.

Hello Sweet Casey, I hope heaven has been good to you. I came across your story and it brought me to this page with your obituary and there was no way to hold back the tears. The most beautifully honest and poignant letter of life and tragic loss..to pure love, and the gift of giving life. 20 years wasn't enough time on Earth, but you in turn gave more years to others through the gift of organ donation and spreading a message to others that encourages sobriety. I come from a long line of...
