Casey was a great person. He was a great influence. He probably dosent know this but he was a great friend of mine who i looked up to a lot. He always made great decisions and i will remember him forever. I hope that i can b like Casey and look at everything in a positive way. Not be judgmental. Most of all i hope that i can be as nice s everybody. I will definitely take Lisa's challenge and do it with a happy heart because that's what Casey would have wanted. I am so glad that God blessed me with a friend that i could look up to and and truly want to fallow their footsteps because they were a great influence... i know i keep on talking but i will keep you all in my prayers and i will use Casey's life as a remodel in my own even know he is not here in person he is here in our hearts! I love you Corey,Lisa and Tracy.

Casey, we do miss you. Your untimely departure has left a huge hole in the hearts of many. Let's take Lisa's challenge and do a random act of kindness for someone on a daily basis. What a better world this place will be if everyone that knew Casey will do this. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Smile on others. Get your heart right with God today. Don't wait. Tracy and Lisa, your gentle giant is looking down on you with a great big smile on his face. He is with God. There is no better place to be. Your family loves you and we pray that God will keep His loving arms around you and bring you peace and comfort. I am always here for you!!!

Casey was the most funniest person i've met. He'd always make me laugh..even when he was teasing me. He was like another older brother to me. I've known him for my whole life too. I love and miss him alot.

Words cannot express how greatful we are to have known Casey and the fine young man he had become. I have so many great memories with Casey from him helping me coach basketball this past year, I couldn't have done it without him. He was always there cheering us on in baseball, win or lose he always had a great attitude, we could all learn from that. He had a great impact on our son and he will really miss playing games with Casey when he would stay over at your house when Corey would fall asleep. Casey was a great friend to our daughter, they will miss him alot. We can take comfort in the fact that we know that he is with Jesus up in heaven smiling down on us and he will always take care of us all until we see him again. We love you guys and cherish the friendship we have you are a great family. Rest in Peace Casey. Casey will live on in all of us because he had a caring heart. God Bless you and your family.

Thank you Tracy and Lisa for allowing us to be a part of Casey's life, albeit short. I remember him as a small little guy running around church - then he began to grow.....and grow.....and grow - into the Gentle Giant. Pay It FOrward - such a great Christian movie - if you've not seen it, now is the time. I pray his friends at school will step up and honor Casey's Memory by Paying it Forward - touch as many lives as you possibly can. Lisa and Trace - keep watch in the afternoon sky - just before sunset - for that one cloud shaped like a heart - that then feathered out to resemble angel's wings. Our family does love you and will continue to pray for strength, peace and rest for you. When we are all stronger again, we will have to followup on the challenges offered up today to do good always, love others, treat others well: random acts of kindess. Lisa, I think you will reach your million as it's already begun. Blessings and peace, friends.

casey was such a great kid, he didn't deserve this, he was going places. he had a future. it just doesn't seem real. i can still picture him talking to me face to face; joking around. he definantly went to heaven, obviously god had a greater plan for him, and he's in a much better place than all of us. god works in mysterious ways. and we'll see casey once again, when we're called home. until then, we love and miss you dearly. rest in peace.

Casey was a one in a million person. He had a kind, sincere, and giving nature that you don't find everday. A lot of us want and try to be like he was, but Casey was an original. Tracy, you said he was like a sponge in that he soaked everything up. Well, what he soaked up, he squeezed out on every one of us. He was the best influence and most positive example every kid in that high school had. Be proud. He had a happiness that spread to everyone. Casey was a Panther never to be forgotten. He will always have a special place in all of our hearts. No person in that high school can say they didn't love Casey, because they did. If there was anyone to ever deserve a ticket to heaven, it was Casey. He was one of those special people God sends as a reminder to us all of what we are supposed to be and how we are supposed to treat others. May Casey walk with the Father and look down on us with that smile we will miss so dearly. God Bless You, Casey. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.♥

I have known Tracy since high school and our famlies attend church together. I just wanted to say if more of our youth today were as kind, polite, well mannered and considerate as Casey has always been, the world would be a much better place. The world will definately be a much different place without him in it, but he will forever be in our thoughts, and the family in our prayers. There is not enough good to be said about such a young gentleman. Casey you were one of a kind. You were loved by all and will be missed.
