I still miss you brother. I wish my boys had the chance to surf with you and laugh with you and know you. I love you and think of you often. RIP.

After all these years have passed since you left us, you are still loved, missed, and remembered greatly. Cade and Mya are beautiful, and you would be so proud of Misty's accomplishments these days. David and I talk of you often, and do miss and love you. Rest in HIS arms. Ms. Denny and Mr. David

Casey was one of my boys and probably spent as much time in my office as I did but I loved him like a son and I think he knew it. I hope so anyway. We had a bond. Mr. Y, his old principal.
