My sincere sympathy to the Casebeer family! Nona, I have never met you, but I grew up hearing wonderful things about you and Jim. My mother was Ruth Marie Anderson(Borns) who graduated from Stephenson High with you. Mom was always delighted to be reunited with the two of you. How blessed we are, as Christians, to know we never see one another for the last time! My prayers shall be with you in these difficult days.

To all the Casebeer family. You have my deepest sympathy. I didn't know your dad, but if he is anything like Mike he had to be a great guy. I worked with Mike many years ago at Manitowoc Cranes. You all are in my prayers.
