Kevin Casey Obituary

Kevin Casey Jr., of San Jose, California, formerly of Litchfield, New Hampshire, passed away surrounded by the love of his family on February 9, 2026. His life, though far too short, was marked by a bright spirit, a generous heart, and a gift for bringing laughter wherever he went.

Born and raised in Litchfield and Bedford NH, Kevin grew up loving sports, the outdoors, and the freedom of the open road on his motorcycle. He graduated high school from New Hampton School and went on to graduate from the Thompson School at the University of New Hampshire in 2009. He then went on to build a career in construction and home remodeling, where his skill, work ethic, and easy connection with people made him truly stand out.

Kevin had a way of lighting up every room he entered. He was kind, exceptionally funny, and had a natural ability to make others feel at ease. His presence brought warmth and energy to family gatherings, friendships, and everyday moments alike.

He is survived by his parents, Kevin Casey and Tracy Casey; his stepmother, Michele Casey; his sisters, Amy Casey and Erin Casey; his stepbrother, John Tolstad; his stepsister, Caroline Tolstad; and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins who loved him deeply. His absence leaves a space that can never be filled, but his memory will continue to shine in the hearts of all who knew him.

A private memorial service for immediate family will be held to honor his life.

For those who wish to do something in Kevin's memory, organizations supporting addiction recovery and mental health are causes close to his story and deeply meaningful to those who loved him.

Kevin's life was a gift - full of humor, heart, and the kind of authenticity that stays with people forever.
