Susan Casey Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 5, 2025.
Susan Casey, a beloved daughter, sister, aunt, niece, cousin, and friend, passed away peacefully on March 27, 2025, at the age of 64. Born on June 21, 1960, in the Bronx, NY, Susan was a bright and loving soul whose memory will be forever cherished by all who knew her.

A proud graduate of Georgetown University, Susan made Washington, DC her lifelong home. Susan was a gifted and highly respected litigation paralegal in the Washington, DC office of Davis, Wright and Tremaine LLP. Susan was incredibly skilled, methodical and unwavering in her commitment to work and operated on a different level of efficiency and understanding of the law.

Susan is survived by her loving parents, Patrick and Eileen Casey of Pearl River, NY; her siblings, Terence Casey (Trish) and Brian Casey (Ellen); her nieces, Lauren Reed (Michael) and Caroline Casey; her nephews, Michael Casey (Vicky) and Jack Casey (Alyssa); her great-nephew, Miles Reed; and her aunts and uncles, Pauline and Michael Mason, Mary and Brendan Kelleher, and Joan O'Sullivan. She is also survived by extended family in both Ireland and the US, as well as many dear friends.

Family meant everything to Susan. "Aunt Sue" adored her nieces and nephews and took great pride in her Irish heritage. Her love of Irish music and frequent travels to Ireland to visit family brought her immense joy. She found delight in dancing at ceilis, attending the theatre and singing Amazing Grace to anyone who would listen. Known for her sharp mind, incredible ability to retell a story, and wonderful sense of humor, Susan will be deeply missed by all who were lucky enough to know her.

Burial will be private. A celebration of her life will be held at a later date. Susan often reflected fondly on her time as senior editor of the Albertus Magnus High School yearbook, a role she held with great pride. Donations in Susan's memory may be made to Albertus Magnus High School, 798 Route 304 Bardonia, NY 10954.

So very sad to hear my good friend of many years has passed away. She was so relatively young. We were paralegals together back in 2003 and stayed friends. I miss that I didn't have a chance to say goodbye.

I offer my condolences and sympathies to the Casey family. I was fortunate to work with Sue at Davis Wright Tremaine, and her many friends and co-workers at the firm are all shocked and saddened by Sue's passing. Sue was an incredibly skilled, dedicated, and hard-working paralegal. She was a master at her craft. Her devotion and care to the work we do for our clients was truly unrivaled, and clients with whom she worked have told us how they appreciated her dedication and will miss her greatly. Sue was a great story teller who enlivened her stories with a her sharp wit and fun sense of humor. She was incredibly proud of her family and her Irish heritage. We will miss her and remember her often and very fondly.
