I met Casey on the day he made his appearance on this earth. I was allowed the pleasure of watching him grow into the amazing young man he had become. Always with a smile. So excited by life. Such a heartbreaking loss for all of us that knew him. Prayers for all of you sweet Whitney. Cole and John!!

Casey and I worked together at the liquor store and every shift we had together he would always bring me Pal´s fries or he would share his. It was constant laughter with him around, and there was never a boring or dull moment. Sometimes if the store was slow we would throw football in the parking lot trying not to hit all of the cars parked or coming and going. He was truly a special spirit and he will be so missed.

Casey was a typical middle school student at Holston Middle. He was always smiling.

I remember drawing a tattoo of Barbed wire around Cole´s arm when he was a small child. Casey wanted a fake tattoo also so I put a big Yu-Gi-Oh tattoo on his back from a playing card that he picked out. His mom and dad thought this was all so funny. It has always been a great memory to me.

Let me be the first to say how special Casey was. And he had the best tee shirts ever. I hope his memory will provide comfort to his family during this trying time. I love you all.
