Shannan Casey Obituary

Beloved son, brother and dear friend, Shannan Dewitt Casey, 54, of Memphis, Tennessee passed away suddenly on July 8, 2024.

Born in Denver, Colorado on December 30,1970, Shannan moved to Memphis as a child with his parents Janice and Phillip and his brother Patrick. They settled in Midtown where Shannan attended Bruce Elementary and Grace St. Luke's. He graduated from Central High School in 1990.

He worked for FedEx for many years and continued his employment until his death. He made many friends there, having a positive attitude, and a ready smile.

Shannan loved football season. He was a devoted Pittsburg Steelers fan, and everyone knew not to bother him when his favorite team was playing. Shannan also enjoyed golf, camping and was an avid reader.

Shannan is survived by his mother and stepfather, Janice and Monroe Willis, Middleton TN; father and stepmother, Phillip and Laura Casey, Asheville, NC; brother and sister-in-law, Patrick and Tiffany Casey, Memphis TN and brother Christopher Casey, Gallatin, TN.

Shannan was a kind and loving person with a great sense of humor. He will be greatly missed by his family, friends and all those who loved him. May he rest in eternal peace.
