I remember the last time I seen Tim was at my parents house when my brother died. He came over to pay his respects to our brother. Tim was a childhood friend of the family he and his family lived down the street from my family. I had a crush on him we shared several hugs and kisses as teenagers. I was such a simple time then. I moved on and over the years I learned he became a hero working with the fire department. I wanted to talk and say hi to him but I never knew which fire department he worked for. When I heard about his passing me and our family were in total shock. We lost a hero but will never for get him. May you rest in peace Timothy Casey you don't have to suffer in silence any more. We will never forget you my friend. To Tim family we are so sorry for your loss. may you fine peace knowing Tim is know with God and is safe.

Tim is my second cousin, I remember when I was a little girl and the year he was getting married, it was an exciting time for everyone. During the reception of the wedding we were able to dance with the bride and groom. I believe I was only about 10 years old then can't remember...but I would keep getting a dollar from my dad so I could dance the night away with Tim. He thought it was pretty funny and I had so much fun. I loved talking to my second cousin he would always give me great advice. I will miss him very much! Love you Tim Rest in Peace.

R.I.P. Tim. You gave so much and asked for nothing in return. Your memory will abide in our hearts and always bring a smile. You shared your life, you laughter and saved lives on many levels. We already miss you, buddy, and although the world has lost another positive contributor, heaven has gained another soul to brighten His kingdom.
