So sorry to learn of Casey's passing. Jim and I met in our earlier years at Eastern Illinois University. The obituary is spot on regarding his sense of humor. We did not spend a lot of time at Eastern since he transferred on to another school but we kept in contact when the college days were over. Just can't describe the good times we had together with his family get togethers. He was just a fun guy and fantastic friend. He and his family will always be in my prayers.

I met Jim while we were students at EIU. We have attended each others family weddings and funerals, and recently we have met for lunch or dinner several times a year. Throughout it all, Jim has been a kind and loyal friend that loved his family very much. He will be missed.
