DONALD M. CASEY

John and Don together in heaven!! Being a widow not easy

I have just acquired a copy of "This Old Boat", After reading it I suddenly discovered the real value to me was not about Boats but about Life, and decision making. I am 83 years old and have made the book required reading for my grandson, age 14. Not because he has a special interest in boats, but the logic and thought applied to acquiring and the selection process is so well explained that it applies to just trying to grow up in this day and age. I am truly sorry I never met Mr. Casey for I...

My sincere condolences to the entire Casey family. Don was truly a remarkable man, that I had the pleasure of working for from 1997-2001. He was a "master marketer" who elevated my passion for marketing.

Sincerely,
Sheena Payne

To the Casey family:

I just yesterday heard that Don had passed on. The TWA family may be slow, but we still maintain the strength of our shared experiences.

I worked with Don during his second stint at TWA in the 90s, until the AA acquisition in 2001. I absolutely agree with what others have written here. Don was a kind, empathetic, encouraging and gracious boss.

He was the epitome of the word " gentleman". He gently corrected us if we where heading down the wrong...

Carole, I have a deep feeling of sadness at Don's passing.
Although Don and I have had no contact for some 20 years, time has not reduced my regard for him and nor dimmed my memories of how our lives intertwined at TWA in the 1970's.
During that period, He was for a time my boss and later my colleague as we each headed one of TWA's major departments, so I saw him a a mentor, as a leader and most importantly as a human being with strong commitment to ethical standards.
...

I will miss his smile, I will miss his laugh, and how he loved all of us kids. Rest in peace Mr. Casey. Say hi to my dad

Mrs Casey and family, I was very saddened to learn of your loss.
I had the honor of working with Don at TWA. He was always so helpful to others no matter their position. He treated everyone with kindness and respect. A true gentleman. No matter how challenging the event or crisis, he maintained a calm and positive demeanor. A marketing whiz.
With deepest sympathies.

Carole, thinking of you and your family . We will continue to keep you in our prayers.

Carol,
We are so saddened to learn of Don's passing, and extend our deepest sympathies to your family. Don was a true friend and mentor, by far the most gifted, disciplined and creative executive of any with whom Bob ever worked with or for. A genuine marketing genius, an even better corporate officer. A loyal and supportive supervisor.
