Goodbye old friend,

You were my oldest (45years) and dearest friend. My heart is broken but I know that you are at peace.

There are a million memories of you here with me.

How blessed was I to have had a life long friend such as you.

You had the kindest heart of anyone I know, your smile, your genuine caring for everyone.

You were my sister and my best friend, the wind beneath my wings.

I will love you "for all seasons".

Always,

Sheila

My deepest sympathies go out to Casey's family. Casey will be missed by many. Her kindness, compassion and humour are just a few of her many attributes that will be missed. Casey was a genuine friend, always willing to lend a friend or any one in need a helping hand. I can picture Casey singing in the CHOIR with the other angels.

Casey was the one who could always make me laugh, just with a cut of her eyes or a big smile and a hug. I know and trust that she is okay even now, singing with the heavenly hosts...and watching over us all...we'll save a spot for you when we're watching the tournament this weekend!

Casey

On behalf of myself, my sisters, Eloise and Sheila. We know that you are at peace with yourself, it was your time, that's why God called you home. There will be a void in our hearts that can never be filled.

Casey always had advice to give, whether you were right or wrong, she was so strong, and confident a friend in need and a very good listener. Her faith in God let me know he needed another angel to guide his choir so he called her home and what a beautiful melody they are all up there singing now. She is absent from us, but her spirit shall be with us forever.

Casey -

There is an empty place where your physical self used to be. Our hearts are broken, but only because we miss you so much.

I know you're safe and sound and watching every move we make!

I pray that your family, both biological and extended, get through this time and can look back and just remember the wonderful person that you were, and the beautiful spirit that you are, without sadness or heavy heart.

I know you're still with us; your spirit is watching over. Your legacy is rich and your life was fruitful because you did God's work tirelessly and faithfully.

Your mentorship taught me how to be strong and steadfast in my walk with God, to let Him lead, and to keep God in focus no matter what. You taught me that "God will take care of it--don't worry about it." Your beautiful soul will never leave my heart--and you'll always be here, even though you are now at home.
