Casey Cats
August 9, 1947 - April 22, 2012
In January of 2010 Casey and Mugan came down to Arizona for a two week holiday
They rented our friend Ken's home at our RV park
I had not met Casey yet ........
Had only heard good things about him........
I was expecting them to arrive at the park sometime during the evening
Around 5 p.m. I was out on the front porch when a white car drove up
and parked next door
'This man' got out of the car
and gave himself a big stretch
"This man' had the biggest smile on his face
and
I thought to myself
Wow
'This man' has the greatest smile!!!
As it turned out
IT WAS CASEY
WHAT A WONDERFUL FIRST IMPRESSION
We spent lots of time together
Here we are at Stephanie and Rod's home
playing spoons!!!!
A new friendship began
June of 2010
We all gathered to celebrate Janette's birthday

They agreed to meet at Tim's for coffee on that special day
The rest is history!!!!!!!!!
A year later they sat at the same table

He asked Mugan to marry him!!!

Casey was not feeling well
and after consulting with a Doctor he was advised to return home
For the next few months Casey fought hard but did not win
On Saturday April 21st we received a call in Penticton to say Casey was close to passing away
Joe made reservations for me to fly to Windsor
My flight was at 6:30 p.m. Sunday out of Kelowna
Just as we were leaving for the airport in Kelowna we received another call telling us Casey had died
Our son Graham and wife Lyndsay were flying into Kelowna on the 6 o'clock flight
I saw them through the 'glass' from the security room
They flew in........ I flew out
I arrived in Windsor Monday morning
There to greet me at the airport were
Janette Georgette Sue and Donna Mae
A very emotional and welcoming sight

ReplyDeleteSuch a heart break I'm so sorry for Mugan's loss and for each of you as well. Dianne had made a comment about there being " such sadness in the air " and it's so very true. Be loving and kind with one another as one just never knows. God speed Casey.
ReplyDeleteIt is such a sad time for all who new Casey. We were only in his company a couple of times. He seemed like such a nice person. Boy did he love his girl Mugan. Our hearts go out to all of you who were so very close to him, especially Mugan. Janet & Bill
ReplyDeleteLouise and I are very sorry for your loss. We are grateful for the chance to get to know Casey just a little bit through this wonderful blog. Namaste. DB. John 14:1-6.
ReplyDeleteWe only knew them for a moment in time in their short lives together but they seemed so happy and Dianne what a wonderful job on this tribute to them. So sad for them and so sad for all of them that knew him well. Dale and Barb
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful tribute to your friend. I am sorry this is the start of your cottage stay. Peace my friend...
ReplyDeleteI could hardly read this through my tears. Casey's presence in our lives was short however the joy and love that Mugan and he shared will leave beautiful and lasting memories with us until, some day, we will all meet again.
