I just heard of Casey's death, and I am so saddened by it. I taught with Casey at Jackson Academy and she was such a dear friend. I thought about her often over the years. So sorry I never tried to contact her and see her again... certainly my loss.

Worked with Casey in the early 80's at River Oaks Hospital. Cute girl. I am saddened and shocked at her passing. I was the secretary to Nursing Service and Education. Sally Roberson Schutz

So sorry to hear this about Casey. Haven't seen her in many years. I went to school with her at Council Hanging Moss. She was always so sweet and kind. May the Lord bless her, family, and friends.

I, too, am stunned to learn of Casey's passing. I went to Council Hanging Moss with her. I saw her recently at a restaurant she was working and had nice talk about those days. She still had her beautiful smile and wonderful personality. She will be missed. My prayers go up for her family. May God comfort you during this difficult time.

Casey was a friend and classmate of mine at Council Hanging Moss. Haven't seen her in years but never forgot her laugh and quirky sense of humor. Her family will be in my thoughts and prayers as they go through this difficult time. God bless...

Suzette, I have spoken with and also received countless e-mails from Casey's (Brandon Academy Class of 1977) classmates. We are all shocked and saddened by her passing. She was a true friend to all of us and will be greatly missed.

Not how did she die, but how did she live?
Not what did she gain, but what did she give?
These are the units to measure the worth
Of a woman as a woman, regardless of birth.
Not, what was her church, nor what was her creed?
But had she befriended those really in need?
Was she ever ready, with word of good cheer,
To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?
Not what did the obituary in the newspaper say,
But how many were sorry when she passed away.

May The Lord be with you and your family during this very difficult time.

So sorry to hear about Casey. We went to Council Hanging Moss together and haven't seen her in years. Also, didn't realized that Meredith Hamilton was her niece. My son escorted Meredith in homecoming court several years ago. I am praying for all of you.

Wow...I'm just stunned and heartbroken upon hearing this. I will always remember Casey for contagious laugh and smile. My prayers go out to the Hamilton and Stacy families during this very trying time.
